Assignment 6

#1-What is normal?

#2-Why do we wear clothes?

#3-What would life be like without technology?

#3       Life without technology would be somewhat more difficult, yet more personal at the same time.  Many times I have been out running errands or just frolicking my day away and OOOOOPS my phone dies! This traumatic event is usually followed by kicking, screaming, and the purchase of new pants(due to the fact that I just soiled them).  What will I do? What if I get a call? What if for some reason a human other than my own mother tries to come in contact with me? There goes the opportunity to make a friend(this has been one of my top goals since I was voted 'most likely to end up alone with many cats' in the 8th grade). See, having phones everywhere we go and being able to google the best places to buy vegan soy green tea lattes is of utter importance and very handy.  On the other hand, today's technology has taken every personal aspect out of human interaction today.  My own grandma texts me instead of dropping by now-a-days. Regardless of the fact that most of my grandmother's texts are witty, creative, and usually include baby animal emojis... it would still be nice to see her every now and then. On a more serious note: technology has benefitted us individually, but also taken some of our personal interactions away form us.
