Situation is the location of a place and how you locate it. If someone from a different country asked you where Washington D.C is, you would need to tell them a close location that they may know. It's a landmark that would turn into their starting position on their journey. For example, you would tell them D.C is south of New York. New York is a major tourist attraction for America. If you mention New York most people will get a basic idea of where to go. It's all about the surrounding areas. If you can describe what's around the location, people will find their destination easier. The Harford mall is a common landmark in Bel Air. Anyone who lives in Bel Air will know where the mall is. If someone wants to get to the new Popeye's that is opening soon, you could say it's down the street from the Harford mall.

When people think of New York city they think about new opportunities. When the buildings were finished, many people came to the city, they started their own businesses.  Soon more and more people came, and the population grew. It could be compared to the gold rush in the west when everyone moved out to find fortune. The city is always working and always moving. Now the people of New York city are living life with hope of a better future. They wake up each morning to become a better person than they were yesterday.

All my notes were in my notebook but we won't use that. We will only be using the blogs. A couple of people got A's on the test. Others not so much. Fun fact every single person who took the test got this one question wrong. It was a trick question that messed with our perception and our thinking. The question had specific coordinates on it, but it doesn't exist in the world. Everyone just took one glance at the numbers and and assumed it was absolute location. It worked because no one got it right, next time we won't be tricked
