Digital Nation

Technology is a main part of everybody's life. Technology is being used to get kids to recruit to the military.They let the kids play video games that are all about war which kids think are fun so then they wanna go to the real thing; the army.
Some people are letting technology take over their lives. Society is crowded with this so you have to dull your senses. Technology is everywhere , some people cant go an hour without their cell phone, internet or whatever kind of technology it is. Everything goes so fast. No one actually takes time to actually look and learn something because there are search engines like Google . why go through struggle when you can look it up on Google. They are now making it possible to just learn through the internet, so instead of going to school you just get online.But people are always plugged in and never concentrating. Video games are though to teach problem solving skills. Some people think we could teach kids through their cell phones since they are always on them. If they did that more kids would probably fail because instead of doing the assignment on the phone they are Texting or playing on Face book or whatever. Now days you can even learn how to do things through You tube which is non linear learning. Anyways Technology is everywhere and will be for many years but people shouldn't make that their lives.

Snow Days

i love snow , but i do not like the cold. The only good thing about the snow is most of the time we get out of school for snow days!. When i was little i lived in california where it didnt snow except up in the moutains and my aunt would take her truck up there and bring snow back to the house . we didnt live that far from the mountains so the snow didnt melt so fast. But it was way warmer than this kansas weather.
Today a snow storm is supposed to be on its way. Im hoping we will get out of school early today. that would be nice.

Epic Film Comparison

The movie i am going to choose to compare is Finding Nemo

Courage

In this film Courage plays part in this movie i think when Saruman and  Frodo i think it was when they both went to talk to that other king in the castle and Frodo had to have courage to go in there i believe because he had to go in there knowing that his son got killed but he was not dead so i think there was some fear there which would give him courage to go with and talk to him.Another thing i think would have to do with courage in this film would be when Frodo and Sam are in that place and frodo instead of climbing up that rock he keeps walking forward between those two dragon poles knowing that he could get hurt he still had the courage.
Courage has been important in my life and many people have to have courage to do most things. In my life i have had to have courage to step up and move on with my life instead of waiting for someone else to move on with with me. It is important in my life because without courage then i probably wouldnt be where i am now.
