Dope I’d say would be to find the right candidate for the country. So far there’s none. Disappointed in Trump recently, never have been supporter for Hillary. It’s dope also to have your opinion and not jump on the wagon of all celebrities;)

I like this word. I must admit that sometime I like some words and dislike other words. Now I am excited about this word “dope”.



The sporting , the walking, the writing, all these things are dope.



When walking in the raining in summer by bare foot, it is dope.



When sweating in sporting, it is dope.



Writing when unhappy, it is dope….
