  1. I, Abiola D. Osibodu cannot live without:

    -Water (it is in everything I drink, I need it to maintain my hygiene, and I love the taste)

    -My glasses (I cannot see anything without them, and I feel vulnerable to everything around me when I do not have them on)

    -Lip gloss (dry or chapped lips are so disgusting and it feels nasty, I cannot live without lip gloss or any form of lip moisturizer, I am addicted!)

    -Lotion (dry skin is hard to manage and I refuse to be ashy)

    -Money (you can’t get very far without money)

    -Oxygen (I would be dead without it)

    -A warm environment (I do not mind being cold, but I need a neutralizer)

    -My Bible (it is my guide to life and it helps me makes the toughest decisions I've ever made)

    -My immediate family (they are so special to me, and they helped make me into the person I am)

    -Food (I need food to live, and to feel healthy)

  2. 1.God
    2.Food
    3.Water
    4.Shelter
    5.My Family
    6.My Cell Phone
    7.clothing
    8.Music
    9.Money
    10.Education
    I choose Food and Water because those are basic thing you need to survive. Water keeps my body clean. I choose money and education because I have no choice but to be successful. I refuse to be uneducated, and broke. I need my family and friends because they help me to achieve the things i need,and give me advice. My family gives me love in support. Clothing and shelter are extremely important because I clothing helps me from being naked. Shelter keeps me from the weather, keeps me warm, and provides me protection. Shelter is important because it give me a sense of security in the world. God is the most important thing on my list. With out my faith I would be lost and have no sight on my life. God is the most important aspect of my life. I believe anything can be acheieved through Christ. My cell phone keeps me social. Without having a social life I would go crazy. My phone is like my bestfriend, I take it where ever I go. Music is so important to me. I love quotes and song lyrics. Lyrics say everything I am feeling that I feel I can't say. Music gets me through everything from, waking up in the morning, to my deepest problems.

  8. 1) Food, because it nourishes the body. Also I love to eat and without food I'd die
    2) Water makes up 70% of the body and without it I'd shrivel up and die. Water tastes good too.
    3) Shelter is a necessity. If you have no where to lay your head at night you are vulnerable to the world. Also houses have heat during the winter.
    4) Sight. I can't even imagine not being able to see. Being blind would be devastating and I would feel as if I was missing out on life in a way.
    5) Hearing is always helpful in life. i would want to be able to hear a car's horn if I was in danger of getting hit. And I would not be any good at sign language.
    6) A Cell Phone is the best way of communication these days. Without a phone I would never be able to keeo in contact with people and they come in handy when you are away from home.
    7) Clothes are non negotiable. I refuse to walk around naked, its just not acceptable.
    8) Personal Space makes me feel comfortable. I am not the type of person who needs to constantly be beside another person, its just annoying.
    9) Hygiene Products are also a necessity. I can't imagine myself not taking a shower or not using deodorant. Hygiene is everything.
    10) Books keep me entertained. I could read all day long and therfore I need books.

  9. 1. Hair Gel....my hair would look like a giant fur ball. The product also helps detangle my curls as well as moisturize them at the same time. Also the product makes my hair more healthy (because its very delicate).
    2.)Food.... I physically won’t survive without eating. I could live without eating every so hour. Plus I just enjoy eating food.
    3.) Water. I exercise a lot so I need to stay hydrated. Again (like food) I couldn’t survive. Also since I talk a lot my throat gets dry.
    4.)My 5 senses. I need my senses to survive in the world successfully. I can’t live without my senses because they are essential to my survival. I also can’t live without my senses because being able to interpret the world around you is important.
    5.) Lotion. Because I tan I like my skin to stay smooth. Also I get really dry in the different seasons. Plus I have super sensitive skin, so it’s medically crucial for me to stay lotion up.
    6.) Clothes. I can’t live without clothes; cause walking around naked is illegal. Also in the different season I would stay cool\warm. Also I couldn’t live without clothes because I like putting together different clothes for an outfit.
    7.)Uggs. I couldn’t survive without my boots. They keep my feet dry and warm. Also they are good for walking around outdoors and don’t ruin easily. They are beneficial for survival.
    8.) Sanitary wipes\soap i couldn’t live without these because I don’t want to be dirty. Also I want to smell good so using these objects is perfect. Also if you don’t bathe after a while, people look at you weird. and I don’t want that.
    9.) Toothbrush. After having braces I am really anal about brushing my teeth. I have to brush at least two-three times a day, and floss. I couldn’t live without a tooth brush because I don’t want yellow teeth, stinky breath, or to get cavities.
    10.) My mom. I couldn’t live without her because she looks after me. Plus she teaches me a lot of things and she can drive me places (because i only have my permit) )=

  14. 1.water-it is necessary for life, dehydration sucks, and it is thirst-quenching
    2.food-needed for life, it is tasty, and it makes my stomach stop rumbling (which becomes quite annoying)
    3.Air-It contains oxygen and other chemicals needed to keep my body alive, suffocation is painful, and it is a free product (which is hard to turn down)
    4.Vitamins and nutrients- needed for life, my body cannot produce enough of the chemical by itself, and not having enough of them can incapacitate me (lack of vitamin A causes eye disorders like nyctalopia)
    5.Calories- used by my body to function, my body would cease to function properly without them, and no amount of food would be sufficient without calories.
    6.Human companionship-Solitude can eventually cause insanity, in the event of a zombie apocalypse there is strength in numbers, and friends make me laugh
    7. Clothes- they keep my body temperature regulated in winter, they are a non-optional social convention, nudity is gross.
    8. My glasses- I am "blind as a bat" without them, I would not be able to function adequately in a survival situation without them, and I am very nearsighted and cannot see more than a few feet in front of me without my glasses.
    9.books-I am addicted to reading, I would quickly become bored without something to read, reading keeps my (almost) ADD mind focused.
    10.Video games- they are fun, video games are an outlet for my repressed anger, i get aggravated if I haven's played any video games in a while.
