Technology At It's Best

 I could not live without my cell phone.  I use it every single day and feel lost without it.
 Technology has made me realize how much the world has changed from when I first remember everything to now. It's a good thing, because it helps get us through the day. I wouldn't let technology replace friends or family.  They don't come around that often if you ignore them. Technology has made me obsessed with it.  I can't go a day without texting, or on Facebook. I don't believe with the saying "All of the biggest technological inventions created by man - the airplane, the automobile, the computer - say little about his intelligence, but speak volumes about his laziness." because if they were lazy, they would have made someone else do it.  Since they weren't lazy, they invented something that is now useful for everyone.  Technology is the main reason everyone gets through the day; without technology, you couldn't "poke" a friend on Facebook, or text your best friend, and maybe not even have a best friend right now that you wouldn't have ever texted or added on Facebook.  Also, there would be a lot of single people instead of married people, because one out of every 5 people get married on the internet.

<---- I couldn't live a day without this phone.  It has everything I need, iPod, phone, Facebook, Twitter, messaging, games, it has everything you could think of.

Heartbroken in DC

This year for our school, we went on the school's annual Washington D.C., New York City trip.  On the first day on our bus, my phone broke.  I had no way of communicating the whole time besides my iTouch, but luckily, we had free wi-fi on our bus, so my Facebook app would work.  Once we got to D.C., we visited a lot of museums that were very boring.  When we were in our last day in Washington D.C., we visited the Lincoln Memorial.  I was jumping down the stairs for fun when my iTouch flew out of my pocket and shattered the screen. It still worked, but I couldn't use the screen or else it would cut me.  So two of my items broke, but I still had my wallet and money.  Well, when we went to Rehoboth Beach, I got pickpocketed, and all of my money was in my wallet.  I had no money, a broken phone and iTouch, and we still had four days left of the trip.  I ended up getting $100 from Star Destination and lived the the long bus rides, but the trip wouldn't have been as worse if I didn't break or lose so much stuff!
