Technology

As a student, having a computer to use is very important because without one, things like projects and blogs and checking for homework on a teacher's website wouldn't be possible.  Computers help me not only with my schoolwork, but also with keeping in touch with my friends and family.  I can also play music, buy music, edit pictures, make movies, and email people with my computer.  Another piece of technology that has changed my lifestyle has been the iPod.  I remember when I was little and I first got a walkman (Yeah, one of those old things. I don't think they even sell them anymore!) and now, all my music is already on my iPod and it's so much easier to access the exact song I want to listen to.  Also, it's smaller, which makes it ideal for traveling. 
Speaking of traveling, did anyone go anywhere interesting for break? My family and I went to NYC for my sisters graduation present right after Christmas, although we did not stay for New Years.  That was quite an interesting trip!  If you ever go, make sure you see at least one broadway, and if you go during winter, go see the Radio City Rockettes.  It was an amazing trip, but it was EXTREMELY crowded in New York, so I suggest going anytime of the year but winter.  The city itself was incredibly different from ATX, and so were the people, but they were all very nice.  
School has just started back up again and already three weeks have gone by, so I think this might be a quick six weeks.  I hope all of y'all are enjoying your days back at school and hope you have an awesome semester! 
Toodles (for now)!
