I would say goodbye face with all my friends and family individually. I would leave without notice but i would say goodbye. i don't think i could just leave with a burden that big on my back. i would leave behind most of my belongings so i have just memories to remember. i would bring a camera and food. if i were to leave i would have to be in the wilderness. ]]> 2018-02-02 14:49:27 UTC https://padlet.com/benbascom20/dxwk6e157drj/wish/227507916 3 pictures benbascom20 https://padlet.com/benbascom20/dxwk6e157drj/wish/227510852

This quote explores the idea of importance of nature. i like this because it is 100% true. if you are in the wilderness then you are completely alone. that is when your imagination is in full affect because its all you can do. i like this quote because it makes me think of the beach and how it will always be a safe-haven for me. ]]> 2018-02-08 18:22:05 UTC https://padlet.com/benbascom20/dxwk6e157drj/wish/229739677 movie benbascom20 https://padlet.com/benbascom20/dxwk6e157drj/wish/229744074 i believe that the movie "Straight out of Compton" has transcendental ideas. it explores the segregation in the 1900's and how they were confident. people of color were portrayed as "different" and so they would revolt against things that shouldn't be decided by color. such examples as water fountains, bathrooms, where you ate, where you worked(if you worked). these all made them think of how only they can make them self successful and this set in. the 5 colored men in this film used their first amendment right to make music and disrespect the authorities at the time. this relates to confidence and self reliance in today's society. they felt society was unfair so they made a legal movement that would have the nation in an uproar to stop segregation. as you can see these transcendental thoughts really made america think about what they were doing.]]> 2018-02-08 18:29:13 UTC https://padlet.com/benbascom20/dxwk6e157drj/wish/229744074 Song lyrics benbascom20 https://padlet.com/benbascom20/dxwk6e157drj/wish/230048479 2018-02-09 15:06:05 UTC https://padlet.com/benbascom20/dxwk6e157drj/wish/230048479
