Technology, Dream it Today. Live it Tomorrow.
Today with new technology if you can dream it you can make it. In this day and age we have seen almost everything like the Google glasses and smart watches. These technologies where once just TV and Movie imagination. Even though we still don't have flying cars, we will soon have cars that drive themselves so still not to bad. With all these improvements and new technology we will never be limited on what we can do. We have truly reached an era where if you can dream it, you can make it.

"Social" or "Not so Social" Media
I believe Social Media is a great tool. It allows people
to stay in touch with each other when they get older and move apart. For
example I have friends that I grew up with that live all over the state, all
over the country, and all over the world. Then on the other hand there are
middle school kids where most of their friends live in the same town, and just
use "Social" Media to talk to one another. For many kids today
"Social" Media has created a Nonsocial culture, because more kids
would rather sit in front of a computer typing a message rather than actually talking
and interacting with another person. When Social Media is a person’s only way
of socializing, skills like building personal relationships will become
difficult if they can't talk to a person face to face. I use Social Media for
strictly to keep in touch with people and not for much else. I have a Facebook
account and that's it. I love Social Media and believe it is a great tool but
Social Media has become for many people "Not so Social" Media.
