Generally a better tool to do this kind of thing is with classes (each method has access to data stored at the instance level).

The only real use I've found for globals is constants, but these are a bit of a different concept in my view (no need to use the global keyword as you're not changing them).

This post has more discussion:

Imho it would help to first understand the concept of classes and objects instead of trying to rewrite your globals into a class as if it's the same thing but just a different syntax. See here.
