I wake up to my alarm going off on my cell phone, hit snooze several times until I get enough energy to actually get out of my bed. Once I finally get out of my bed, I turn on my laptop and check the weather. Since I'm already at the computer, I check my Facebook while I'm there. Taking the weather into consideration, I choose an outfit and head to the shower. When I get out of the shower, I put my music player on shuffle while I get ready for class. I gather my supplies (books, notebooks, and laptop), and go to school. On the way to school, I listen to music and have road rage from all the construction on the roads. Advertisements are anywhere you could imagine, such as billboards, benches, buses, and cars.
When I finally arrive to school, my friend and I go to the library and go over our homework. In the meantime, my friends and I text each other and make plans for after class. We finally go to class and attempt to pay attention, however there's only so much our brains can handle at once. During class, my friends and I continue to text each other until we finally get out of class and are able to hang out. Usually we go to the movies, to a party, or on occasion, to Starbucks to study over a Carmel Frappuccino.
If my parents are still awake when I finally get home, I enjoy spending time with them and talking about what happened that day. Having a 20-year old brother, and a 15-year old sister, we're all busy doing our own thing and barely have time to spend with each other, so when I get to I really enjoy it.
After everyone goes to bed, I usually go up to my room, turn on the TV while I study, and then go on the computer for a bit. I usually get a phone call or two, and then finally go to bed.
After actually thinking about my daily routines, I realize that the majority of my life is centered around technology. My cellphone is attached to my hand, and the truth is, my life would be so different without it. Technology even affects the way we study and become educated about things. Although that technology improves our lives and health, the more developed technology becomes the more distant we become from our family. Family is more important than our friends, and we should make an effort to spend more time with them rather than focusing on other people 24/7.
