Technology in school, pro or con?

Technology has one of the fastest growing popularities in America and around the world. I woudn't be able to live in a world without T.V's and computers. Every household in America has some sort of technology that makes thier lives easier. Even my grandparents have some sort of technology that they use daily like a computer or a T.V. Technology has be used so much that some person thought of putting it in  schools and he was good for doing that. Over the past years people have been arguing if thier should be technology in schools and if it should be part of lessons that teach students how to type faster or make blogs like i am doing right now. I believe there should be technology involved in schools because you basically learning more by learning how to use a computer and how to use it's key features.
      Communication has also been affected by technology in some ways. for example, in the old days you would write a letter or go to that persons house to talk. But these days you rarely go over someone's house and you usely find yourself texting or calling some one. For example, when I asked my friend to come over so we could hang out, he said no. But when I asked him to text he said sure. Also, if a teacher announces you have to write a hand written essay, everyone screams and says they rather type. All I am trying to say is that technology has totally changed people talk and spend time with each other. Children now a days are basically learning more thatn before because they are learning about technology and about the topic the teacher is talking about. I hope that in the near future people will invent a newer way of sending hand written letters!

Ms. Carrol, this is I!

Hi Ms. Carrol, I am really happy to meet you and I am dearly happy to have you as my temporary teacher! I hope me and my class fit your regulations and your view of our class. In my own way I will try to make your life easier so that you don't have to think twice about being a teacher that expands childrens thinking abilities and expands thier vocabulary. Thier is many things that get my knickers in a twist but, these are the ones I noticed since I was a small child. One I've had since I was probably born, is technology. A single hack in technology gets my adrenaline rushing and blood pumping. My first technological success was back in the third grade in Mrs. Yesalavich's class. Our assignment was to make our first powerpoint about anything we wanted. I chose to display something about computers and video games. So, I went home and started up my old Dell XPS deskstop. I went on Microsoft powerpoint 2003 and clicked on "new". I remember this day just like it was yesterday. I accidentley clicked ALT three times and and enter after. Suddenly, a screen popped up and said "controller disclaimed further". So, I clicked enter and the hack menu popped up. I chose the free case option which unlocks all your computers abilities and lets you have unknown sources on your computer
My second favorite thing is snowboarding. I own a Burton Clash twin snowboard with K2 Formula bindings and Forum Sherpard boots. Snowboarding is one of my favorite sports that only comes once a year so I go more often than a usual person would. I learned how to snowboard in the fourth grade and was introduced to it by my good friend Micheal. He also snowboards but, we never got to go on a slope together but we are hoping for it. Last year I just got into jumping and doing tricks. I learned 180's and 360's at first and then started to get into grabs and grinds. My favorite trick is one I made up and it's called a osey. I call it that because when your in the air you grab the nose of your board and lean foward so it looks like your taring at the ground.
Many of these things are obvious about me but they are crucial to my life!

My Furure Career Goals

               Many children want to be rich and famous when they grow up, but I set up some more realistic goals for me. I have two decisions that I seem to argue over with myself. The first one is a DJ because I just love how music fuels life and love which those two fuel the world. So, actually music fuels earth and its people. I believe without music our world would fall apart eventually or be as plain as a white t-shirt. Even great artists like Leonardo Da Vinci used music as a tool in their paintings. He said himself, that the beat of the music grasps artists hands into the flow of the music. I think that music is the art and the artist making unbelievable art for our ears to listen to and rumble in the sound of the thumping bass. DJ's are also involved in technology which I'm very good at extremely advance in. My other choice is a software designer which also works with technology and computers. My two almost favorite things. Basically, in this job you design computer software that helps or makes a computer users life easier and personalizable. I think computer users want more options and features to make thier computer thier way and everyone says your way is the easier way. So, what the cusstomer wants, the customer gets. Also, some older people might want thier computers to be more simpler and and easier to use. I always feel I can't keep up with technology. As I get used to something new I got, something newer comes out with way better software and make my piece of technology look like a piece of trash laying in a corner. All it is, is part of business and advertising the object.
          Another thing I would like to set as my goal is to get no lower than a 3.0 average in high school so that good colleges see me as a priority not a muscle jockhead pest. The big things are all at high school. The most out of your entire school year matters the S.A.T you take for a college to accept you. It is the big stump, like my dad likes to call it because it tests you on everything you learned their is a wad of pressure in the air that makes you feel jittery. It's like taking the NJ ASK but much harder. Goals are a big part of life, and without them thier would be no creativity.

Kowalski.resolutions

It is almost considered a New Year’s tradition to have a resolution. If you don’t have one your considered a bum with no life or a life-less person. One of my resolutions for the year 2011 is to take shorter showers and conserve more warm water that uses electricity to make. So, basically I use two energy sources that I can conserve but choose not to for my own pleasure. It also gets on my parents nerves on how long I stay in the shower using up all the warm water that they would like to us instead of the usual cold water. One example of this happening was just yesterday when my dad came storming in through the door and telling me to get out when I just started putting on soap, which kind of caught me off hand. To make sure I do not break my resolution, I will set a timer for ten minutes maximum and if I exceed for which I consider a short amount of time, I will snap a trusty rubber band as hard as I can on my hand to make me remember. Out of all my thought up resolutions, I think this one will affect and impact my parents, the world, and me.
