cell company I feel is the best ever, Sprint. My reason for disliking them is because they claim they can reach more areas, take better pictures, have game streaming.

My dad runs. He is not very good, but each day after work he runs. He started by running for ten minutes at a time. Each day, he added a minute to his run. Now, he is running for twenty-eight minutes. Since the beginning of time, humans have been running. As a species, we literally ran to survive.

I saw dedication every time I saw my sister grit
