I know like most people my age we are all caught up in the new thing the hip thing, and being online is that new hip thing. being able to catch up with people half way across the world or order some exotic peas of clothing. I'm not anti technology I love my phone and computer, I just think that we as human beings should take a brief moment away from the hustle and bustle of the virtual world and look at the real world. take a walk or just look out side. I myself am 18 and live every day as if it was my last because you never know when that last moment is going to come, and I know that my last moments aren't going to be on my computer. There going to be out in the world doing what I love to do.
