How do you think Technology will affect your life differently this year than in the previous years of your life? Consider what changes you are expecting to the way of life you have, new products you may be purchasing, and what you have learned thus far in school and personally?

This year actually marks the second year of me having my email, and in that time I have had to make numerous accounts on different sites and for obvious different uses. This year marks another year of change, surprisingly this year I am glad to say that I am enrolled in an interesting computer class. Not until I was actually in my sophomore year was when the computer class was interesting. During my time at Hollenbeck the computer class only taught basic skills for using Microsoft programs such as Excel, Powerpoint, and Word. This is my sister's fourth year in University, she told me that upon graduating she plans to buy a new laptop. I personally don't have a computer because I usually borrow my sister's laptop whenever she doesn't need it for her classes. Since this year's computer class is twice as informative as my previous computer class I have come to understand what words like RAM and Memory mean. Using this new found knowledge I plan to utilize it in order to help my sister buy a useful computer. At the end of this school year I plan to be twice as computer savvy than what I am, and I have no doubt that whatever I learn will prove its usefulness later in life.
