- I’ve been introduced to numerous school systems in three different states. At first, I started off in the Brooklyn Public Schools in New York City. I attended their schools until I was in the fifth grade in elementary. I, then, got transferred to a private school in Sunset Boulevard in Brooklyn. I stayed there until the 7th grade. After the private school, we moved to Broadview Heights in the suburbs of Cleveland, Ohio. I attended the Brecksville-Broadview Heights Public School system for the 8th grade. We, then, moved again from Ohio to Michigan, where I attended the Dearborn Public Schools from the 9th grade until my high school graduation. And now, well, I’m attending Wayne State University for my third year.
- My parents are educated. My dad actually has a Masters Degree in Mathematics and Nuclear Physics. As for my mother, she finished off with a Bachelor of Science Degree. Both my younger sister and younger brother are currently students at the University of Detroit Mercy in the Pre-Dental program.
- In my opinion, I do think that most people in the world these days have access to technology. I mean, I went to Egypt, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and Greece the last two summers and they have Internet cafes on every other block. Everyone, even the poorest people you could imagine, had access to these computers because they charged a very small fee per hour. Another thing that astonished me was that most of these people overseas have much better technology then we do; not to mention better cell phone coverage too.
- People are afraid of change. I remember having some old folks coming into this cell phone store I used to work at in Twelve Oaks Mall. They were just mall walkers. They'd usually walk in for about a minute to look at phones and then walk out. I'd ask them why wouldn't they get a cell phone for themselves and they'd tell me stories about how they’ve gone through life without all this technology so why would they need it now and so on. I personally think the fear of change keeps a person from learning technology.
If you think the fear of technology doesnt exist, check this link out. Youll get a kick out of this!
- I loved reading R L Stine books. I, especially, loved his Goosebumps series of books when I was a child. Right now, I basically like to read anything that’s interesting. It could be a scientific article or even just the sports section of the Detroit Free Press. It doesn’t matter to me.
- I personally think anything society has can either benefit or hurt it. Its how we actually use it that makes a difference. You can use your computer to watch porn or use it to research topics online. You can watch TV to view XXX or unrated movies or you could watch TV to watch your favorite show or the news. You can eat with moderation or you can go all out and die sooner than you thought. Again, we can’t all be negative about everything. We hurt ourselves. Technology doesn’t hurt us, it’s our choices that do.
