Technology

Technology has definetely impacted my life in a positive way. Obviously, I have never lived in a time when people are not heavily reliant on technology so I dont have much to compare to. But, nonetheless, I honestly believe that technology has had a great influence on my life. The number obe way that it has affected me is communication. One major component of life these days, especially for highschool kids, is interacting with others. And, communication has made that easy for everyone. I remember middle school when I didnt have phone. It was almost impossible to communicate with friends. The only way was to call the house phone IF you could remember their number. But when I got a phone before seventh grade that all changed. All of the sudden it was possible to talk to my friends whenever I wanted. All of the obstacles that hampered my ability to communicate were remedied by adding a piece of technology to my life that was small enough to fit in my pocket. And, this is not the only scenario where this has been the case. In fact there are many cases like the computer I am typing this on, or the iPod I am listening to, and hopefully the car I get in the near future. In any case it is obvious that technology has improved my quality of life repeatedly and I do not anticipate that to stop.
