Assignment 8 Daniel Zhu

As a kid, my most prized possession was my deck of Pokemon cards. I did everything to up my game and my collection. I remember I would organize them from weakest to strongest and I'd show it off to all of my friends. I did anything to improve my deck, I'd scam kids for their good Pokemon, or I'd just flat out spend too much money on collection boxes and card packs. Well, a lot has changed since then. I guess you could say my priorities have gotten much more reasonable and I'd feel the same. My current most prized possession are probably my friends and family. Everyday I do whatever it takes to spend time with those closest to me. If anything were to happen to my family, I'd try to protect them with my life (even more so than my Pokemon cards). The happiness of my friends and family play a huge role in everything. I do whatever I can to please them and whenever they're down I do whatever I can to help them get back up. I guess throughout the years I've learned that I should invest my attention towards something more important than just a collection of cards. Because in the end, there's a much higher chance for my loved ones caring back for me than a heartless deck of Pokemon cards.
