Texting

Like many people, I am a person who texts at a daily basis. I think that I am a text addict because I text everyday! In one day I send about 50 texts. This is ridiculous. I think I usually reflect on what I do which may help me understand myself better. Therefore, texting may be a good thing, or maybe that is what I want to believe. I think that texting may be a distraction for me from my studies. I think that I am addicted to texting and it would be hard for me to stop. I think texting is just more convenient than calling someone on the phone. Instead of calling my parents, I text them if I need to reach them because of the convenience.      

The Return of Lil Wayne

Lil Wayne, who has been in jail for the last eight months, will be out of jail by November 4. He went to jail for drug possession. He is one of my favorite rappers. I know a lot of songs by him. I read an article that said that he will be coming back and he will be better than ever. In the article it was talking about how he can’t wait to get out of jail and get back on stage. He looks out in the window and waits for the day that he will get out of jail. Many of his friends came and visited him some of them being Drake, Diddy, and Fat Joe. Below are the articles that I read that may have more information on the topic.

Ipod in the Car.

Have you ever been in the situation where you want to listen to good music in the car but the radio isn’t playing the music that you desire? Well I have been in that same situation. I know that many people use IPods and other electronics which contain music that you love. I also want to listen to songs on my IPod in the car. I found out that there is a solution to my problem.  I was with my friend in his car and he was playing music from his IPod. I was astonished and I found out that you can do that if you buy an fm transmitter or a cassette adaptor. The fm transmitter is pretty cool because you can charge your IPod while listening to it in the car which allows you to have a longer satisfaction time. The cassette adaptor may be better for those people who have cassette players in their cars. I told my friend about it and he went out and bought it and he is proud that he did. Below pictures of a cassette adaptor (top) and a fm transmitter (bottom).

 

Vacation in India

Last year my family and I went on our annual trip to India. My parents grew up in India. I had a lot of fun when I was there. I have a lot of first cousins there. I usually stay with my cousins at their house when I am there. The reason I like going to India is because we go somewhere every day. I am a type of person who doesn’t like sitting home, but rather go out and do anything else but sit home. Since we don’t have a lot of time on our hands we have to do everything quickly so we will be able to do everything we want to do. My favorite part about India is the big amusement park. I love going there with my family and cousins. It is so much fun spending the whole day there. My least favorite part about India is leaving India. This is a stage filled with grief because I will miss my grandma and my other relatives. Also, the long plane ride back is really dreadful and long. I am going back to India in December and will return in January for my cousin’s wedding. I am really looking forward to this trip because I have never celebrated Christmas in India and I am really excited for my cousin’s wedding.    

Problems with using Facebook and other social networking websites.

Facebook and other social networking websites result in many problems for many students. For students who are in school, Facebook is a distraction for them and many of these students don’t do their homework and procrastinate. These students may want to chat with their friends rather than studying for a test or something and this can lead to stress and other problems. This distraction can really affect your grade on your report card and it can also cause problems at your home. These are only a few reasons why students can get harmed by using Facebook and other social networking sites.
