Group Work for Research Paper

I am very happy with the way our group work has been progressing for this week. We we able to choose our own groups for this project which helps me to be in a group of people that I work well with. We have decided to all post different information that we can find in writing on our Wiki pages, and in class on Monday we can all work together to make the information flow and be correctly arranged. I have enjoyed group work for this week, and I believe that all-in-all our group will be very productive!

Mustang

Okay, so I have always had this enormous love for Mustangs. I love the new body style from 2006 and up. Well, every single day that I come to school, I see people driving Mustangs everywhere! It is killing me! I know absolutely NOTHING about cars, and most of the time if someone names a car then I have absolutely no idea what it is. However, when it comes to Mustangs, I have my dream Mustang almost down to a "T." I want it to be black and i want it to say "Mustang" along the bottom on the sides in white decal. I want chrome in the grill and I want the exhausts to be chrome. I want it to have a body kit so that it looks super low to the ground. I want the windows tinted to about 5%. The rims will be Anodized hot pink, and it will nave hot pink neons on the inside and under it. It will be a Shelby Mustang GT, so clearly it will definitely have the hood scoop. For the interior, I do not want leather; I want it to be fabric and I want it to have "Mustang" written all over it. I also would like to have the gills on the side quarter windows also. Just typing about it makes me picture it!

First Tattoo

Lets start out by saying that I have this insanely exaggerated fear of needles. When i had to get two shots to start my college year, here at BSU, I passed out right afterwards. It's not necessarily painful although it's not a feeling that I enjoy, but I am just terrified of them. Maybe it's the fear of it hurting, maybe it is just knowing the fact that something is about to be stabbed into my body, or maybe it is a reason that is unknown to me. No matter what the cause is-I am still terrified of them. Well about two years ago, my father passed away. It was a very painful time for my family and I, and it still is. In memory of him I decided to grow the courage to get a tattoo. It is writing in cursive: "Halte mir einen Platz im Himmel frei J.W.H" which is German meaning: "Save me a place in Heaven" and my father's initials. It means a lot to me, and my brother is also getting the same phrase tattooed on himself. The difference being that mine is on the back of my shoulder and his will be on his entire back and much larger.
But in conclusion-anyone deciding to get a tattoo. It is NOT bad at all. Honestly, I am such a baby when it comes to pain and needles, but this was honestly not painful at all. Before I was in the process of getting the tattoo, I felt like I was going to faint/pass out. No, none of those things happened. Even as he was drawing the tattoo out for me I felt as if I was really thirsty because I was getting lightheaded. BUT, It was not painful at all. Finally something to mark off of my bucket list!
