What I expect 2018 to be this year is to be more calm I hope that Donald Trump doesn't cause any controversy with any other countries or states. I hope that he takes wise decisions and doesn't cause more trouble with North Korea.

In the year 2017 their was a lot of racism and lots of human killing human for example the shooting in Vegas that injured over 400 people and a man running over several people. I predict that in 2018 lots more things will happen involving other country's and ours.

To summarize 2017, many events happened such as the women's march on Washington, Manchester terror attack and Charlottesville violence and many more throughout the year. Hopefully for 2018 we are prepared for whatever events the would occur.

The most important events in my opinion for 2017 was the multiple terrorist attacks around the globe, Trump becoming president, multiple weather disasters in the U.S, and the country's affairs with other countries, and what I expect to happen in 2018 is a continuation of that, but with hopefully good things that would change the world that we live in.

There's been so many tragedies in 2017, many homes destroyed,lives lost etc.. We are all hoping that in 2018 there will be more peace but i doubt it cause there is always gonna be something that happens.

In 2017, the United States of America has been through it all. Violence such as mass shootings, natural disasters the this country has never endured before. The list goes on and on. In 2018, hopefully we can create a more peaceful environment. There are many things that are out of our control, but the things that people can control must be controlled to make the world a better place.

2017 was a year where we would not forget about how Trump being president caused conflict in our nation. Discrimination and racism was a big part of 2017 and was so controversial that athletes from different sports rose up and protested against police brutality. I hope 2018 brings nothing nut success for me and peace for the world

To summarize the important events of 2017, I'd call them horrific. 2017 had so many deadly shootings, massacres, etc. and most of them were the worst in history. What I'm expecting for 2018 is for things to be the same or worse because of the idiotic man in office (Donald Trump). I'm hoping for things to get better but I know it will get worse.

The year 2017 was full of various attacks all over the world that continue to grow as time passes by. I predict that the year 2018 will be the year of chaos, where war may break out and racism will surface again. I also predict that our president won't acknowledge these problems until it is too late.

2017 has been a tough time for us. Much has happened and little has been done to resolve, For example the nuclear threats with North Korea. That tension escalated and it resulted in threats from both the United States and North Korea. We have experience huge natural disasters such as Hurricane Irma, Harvey, and Maria. There have also been wildfires in Los Angeles. We have experience a great deal of racism, from white supremacist to our very own President. In 2018 I would love to see peace become present. I know that is a lot to ask for knowing that many of these countries have been fighting for centuries but it would great to know that we are in a safe place away from any dangers. Also that our enforcement would become more involved and fight against these disasters.

A recap of 2017 in one phrase is, this nation has been through a lot. From terrorists attacks to white supremacists. Not only has this nation been oppressed by individuals, but we have been oppressed by horrible weather. There has been many innocent deaths,that I personally feel was neglected by out president. To add on to all of this destruction our president has not been the best person to look up to while going through these disasters.I hope 2018 will have less innocent deaths, Donald Trump will become a more dependable president, and mother nature will stop being so fatal to different countries.

Trump started to change a lot of things and took helpful things away from people. We had a lot of murders and attacks some people were able to survive them and some family lost many family members.We almost are going to war with North Korea.2017 was mostly a terrible year for us nothing really good happened.I expect a war or something to go down in 2018 if we do not get rid of Trump.Some good might happen in this year we would just have to see.

2017 was definitely a year to remember. Many events that happened last year marked history. I think this year will have much controversy due to the president that is and always has been against us.

Some important events from 2017 was the election of a new president, the shooting in Las Vegas, white supremacist, the natural disasters and the Cassini probes death. In 2018 I expect better things to happen like fewer natural disasters, less controversy and peace for everyone.

Many drastic things has occurred in the year of 2017. To begin with, the presidential election. Who would have ever thought that an orange man would win the election? It is drastic because he altered many laws which put the rights of many people on edge. One thing that I would like to see this year is equality. For many years, discrimination has been a major problem in the US. I would want to see everyone being treated the same no matter what race they are.

In 2017 many things occurred. There were a lot of natural disasters occurring around the world such as hurricanes and fires. Many mass shootings occurred in different places as well. There has also been a lot of issues between the U.S. and North Korea. North Korea has been threatening the U.S. a lot but Trump has been brushing it off to the side as unimportant or as if they are unwilling to actually do anything.

An event that stands out to me the most has to be the swearing in of a new president. This stands out the most to me because this one choice has had an emotional and physical impact on everyone in this country. This year of 2018 I hope for peace and beneficial changes being made; however, I don't really expect this.

What i expect to happen is that there will not be any wars that come upon us and that the president changes some of his ideas that he has for undocumented people so that they have the same chances as others to study in the united states.

2017 was a year of a newly elected president and many unfortunate events. The California wildfires, the hurricanes that stuck south east America, the controversy with North Korea, and the Charlottesville protest made 2017 hectic and it is only to hope that 2018 can be a better year compared to 2017. I hope for more solutions than problems.

In 2017 there was a lot of devastation. There were shootings, bombings, and natural disasters. This year I hope it will be more peaceful and have strict gun laws

In 2017 there was a lot of bad things that happened from hurricanes to terrorist attacks. 2017 was filled with racism from our president and members of the kkk. I don't know if 2018 will be a better year since it's only our second year with trump as president so there is worst things to come.

In 2017 the most important vents that occurred were the natural disasters. I think the two hurricanes that hit both Texas and all along the Caribbean and the wildfire of California that show how powerful mother nature can be. Hurricane Harvey was the worst in Texas history. Hurricane Maria was the worst in U.S History. California was hit with the wildfires of Santa Ana that turned into the worst in California history. What i want to see in 2018 is how women stood up for themselves instead of hiding. I want everyone to come together like we did this year and fight against what wrong in the world today. I want to see peace and more people sticking together and becoming something much more then just of group of people standing up for something.

All 2017 events were terrible and have marked history. Overall I hope 2018 will be a good successful year but having Donald Trump as president I feel like he will still cause a lot of controversy with other states which will lead to serious problems.

2017 was a very long, sad year filled with lots of controversy, scandals, and tragedy. A lot happened, such as the tension between North Korea and the US, Las Vegas massacre, Texas church shooting, Charlottesville riots, the Women's March on Washington, and many other events. What I hope to see in 2018 is less violence and more unity within ourselves, such as what we saw with the hurricane relief in Texas, Florida, Puerto Rico, and various other parts of North America. Also, I hope that Trump will be more wise with the things he says in the media, because there was a lot of controversy surrounding him last year that enraged many people.

Lots happened in 2017 such as the Las Vegas shooting, Hurricane Harvey and Irma, Charlottesville violence, the biggest fires in California, Trump starting problems with North Korea, etc. What I hope for this year is for peace, but I know that it won't happen. I know there will still be many political problems and possibly war, but who knows?

2017 was probably one of the most hurtful years in the 2000's. A lot of mass shooting and killing with dangerous wildfires. Also, white supremacy is not afraid anymore to be public and that's scary, and hurricane destroying people's home and city it will go down to be one of the craziest years of all of time.

2017 was literally the worst year by far.First,America got a president that is not the brightest.Second, a lot of innocent people were murdered. Third,somebody started a fire and it messed up alot of peoples homes.In 2018 i feel like Donald Trump is going to continue to pull more stunts like he did in 2017.

In 2017 plenty of racism and disasters were happening due to the fact that Donald trump is president.I think 2018 will be a much better year due to the fact we as american's learned from our mistakes and will prevent the same thing that happened last year to happen this year. I believe that this year we will find new cures to illnesses and create advanced technology that will better this country.

2017 had a lot of crazy events happening in our country. From Donald Trump to terror attacks. I wouldn't be surprised that these bad events has happen over 2017. The most important event is the Charlottesville attack because it shows how bad racism is still going on our country and still is to this day forward. I predict 2018 is going to be more good things going on aside from Donald Trump.

i say 2017 was very one crazy year that had a lot of world related problems like hurricanes forming and destroying homes and making people become Homeless, terrorist attacks, people dying and getting hurt racism problems with north Korea and etc. i think 2018 will probably be different not sure.

The year 2017 was filled with alot of pain, loss and disappointing situations. Mainly due to the president who causes agitating situations supporting those who are racist. The death of many around the world caused by terrorists.

To start off 2017 was one year that will be made in history alongside many American years in negativity. For instance Slavery, Racism, hurricanes, a disrespectful orange presisdent, fires, and just killings after killings. American needs a turning tide. I do not expect anything to be different in 2018 but if god has a plan for us I hope that plan is on a positive track to changing America and shinning a light onto earth. Leave a Reply. |
