This is the shirt that I created. On the front of the shirt, I put the name I want to be called by. In the left sleeve, I listed Japan and South Korea as the places I want to visit in the future because I want to see a cherry blossom and I want to meet my idol in South Korea. While in the right sleeve, I listed dancing and playing ML as things that I like to do because it makes me happy and makes me forget my problems; it's my stress reliever. On the back of my shirt, I wrote, "If I had a time portal, I would go back to the time when my father was still alive, because I want to create more happy memories and cherish every moment with my father."

My favorite Global City is, kyoto. Kyoto is one of the oldest municipalities in Japan, having been chosen in 794 as the new seat of Japan's imperial court by Emperor Kanmu. Kyoto is also a center of higher learning in the country, and its institutions include Kyoto University, the second oldest university in Japan. Kyoto, once the capital of Japan, is a city on the island of Honshu. It's famous for its numerous classical Buddhist temples, as well as gardens, imperial palaces, Shinto shrines and traditional wooden houses. It's also known for formal traditions such as kaiseki dining, consisting of multiple courses of precise dishes, and geisha, female entertainers often found in the Gion district. Kyoto, Japan is a beautiful place where Blossom Trees bloom and beautiful sights are seen. The blossom trees here are very special, they are only in season for two to three days before all of the petals fall off in a big wave of pink.

This photo was taken on March 6, 2016, and we are in D'Leonors Wavepool. For me, this is the most memorable travel because it's my first time to see a pool that has a wave, and it's really amazing: I enjoy it a lot. Also, we were able to have quality time together and create many memories there with my family. I really enjoy the moment when we are there because there are also many big statues and rides; sadly, we didn't take a pic in the big statues because the cellphone is low- powered. It’s really a fun experience.

Samal Island has been my favorite vacation place ever since. Samal, officially the Island Garden City of Samal is a 4th class component city in the province of Davao del Norte, Philippines. Samal Island is one of the most beautiful tourist destinations in the Philippines. This place makes me calm; it has fresh air; the ocean is clean; and it has stunning white-sand beaches. We go to different resorts in Samal-the Paradise Island, Seagrass Resort, and Canibad Beach Resort-and it's really beautiful and relaxing, and I really enjoy the view there. We made happy memories there and had a good quality time with my family and friends. When we are there, we are very happy because we enjoy the place. It is still my favorite place because it holds so many happy memories of my family. My favorite place makes me feel relaxed, calm, and, most importantly, free.

If I would be part of the crew in the Money Heist, the city that I would choose is the Mati City. One of the reason why this city because I want to see the mysterious beauty of the Sleeping Dinosaur and the white, sandy beaches of this city. The island boasts of many untouched beaches that are surrounded by crystal clear blue waters. With the perfect tropical climate and year-round sunshine. The city has been acclaimed several times as the cleanest and greenest city in the Philippines. With a wide range of attractions ranging from beaches to wildlife reserves, Mati City .This city has its own beauty that no other city has, just as me, I have my own attitude and distinct beauty that no one has.

I want to be called Alpha because it was my father who gave me the name when he was still alive, and I really like it. My name reminds me of my father.

Globalization 2.0 Will Realign Trade and Make Things More Expensive

If you think inflation is bad now, just wait till you see what the next phase of globalization has in store.

Over the past few years, the world has experienced an escalating series of trade disruptions — the US-China trade war, the Covid-19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions, Russia's war with Ukraine, dueling sanctions and export controls.

The cumulative effects of these crises are driving a deep rupture between free-market democracies and Chinese/Russian-style authoritarianism that’s dividing the global economy along geopolitical fault lines.

“Fragmentation is going to stay,” says Bob Koopman, chief economist of the World Trade Organization, the Geneva-based institution formed 27 years ago to ensure nations abide by the rules of international commerce. “What we're going to see is this reorganized globalization.”

So, how will our world change if the trade ties that bind the global economy unravel?

Bloomberg Economics ran a simulation of what an accelerated reversal of globalization might look like in the longer run.

The answer: A world of lower economic growth and higher prices.

If nations collectively slapped the equivalent of a 25% tariff on the roughly $6 trillion worth of goods that are currently traded between democratic and autocratic nations, the result would be a 20% plunge in global trade.

WRANGLER

One of the clothing companies that I found in my closet is wrangler. Wrangler is an American manufacturer of jeans and other clothing items, particularly workwear. The brand is owned by Kontoor Brands Inc., which also owns Lee. Its headquarters is in downtown Greensboro, North Carolina, in the United States, in 1904 with production plants in a variety of locations throughout the world. Wrangler Jeans were first made by the Blue Bell Overall Company, which had acquired the brand when it took over Casey Jones in the mid-1940s.

The foreign artist I like the most is Twice.

Twice is a South korean girl group formed by JYP Entertainment. The group is composed of nine members: Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Momo, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu. Twice was formed under the television program Sixteen and debuted on October 20, 2015, with the extended play The Story Begins. Twice rose to domestic fame in 2016 with their single "Cheer Up", which charted at number one on the Gaon Digital Chart, became the best-performing single of the year, and won "Song of the Year" at the Melon Music Awards and Mnet Asian Music Awards. I was in 7th grade at the time when my classmate danced to one of the songs from "Twice. That was the first time I heard of them. I actually like it the first time I heard it, so I search for it, and thats how I started to stan them.
