Technology is Everywhere!

One thing I could not live without is my cell phone. I use it to call people I need to get a hold of. It allows me to take it anywhere we want. Technology has changed society greatly over the years. People would always send letter to communicate, but now all we have to do is get on the computer and send it directly over the internet. I would never let technology replace reunions or meetings. It wouldn't be the same if you used Skype while having Christmas with your relatives. It makes it much more special if you are there in person. Technology has made us obsessed, because people are always checking Facebook or Twitter for the smallest things in people's lives. In a way, I would agree that technology advances have made us lazy, but we are smarter and more efficient with the new use of technology.

What Summer Vacation?

I usually don't go on vacation, but as a family we go do many things throughout the summer. One thing our family always do is go to the figure 8 races in Coon Rapids. There are a ton of people that attend the races. A very large majority of them know my dad, because my dad grew up in Coon Rapids as a kid. Another thing I did this summer was attend the Central Football Team Camp. As a Carroll football team, we go down there and we play other and possible better schools to prepare for the football season. We had to go against the 4-A State Champions, Dowling Catholic. We played a lot of quality teams there that were a challenge for us such as, Johnston, North Scott, Dowling, and many more. This camp was three days long, and we were busy all day long. What I remember the most was the fantastic food they had in the dinning hall. It was a long and hard camp, but it was well worth it.
