Vocab Story

I was always a aficionado to the good life. You know, haciendas, limousines, big televisions. But, being as my job as a host a buffet restuarant never left me with a bonanza of money, so I just lived in the barrios of San Josè. But after eons, it seemed like, to get out of the barrio, I moved into a big hacienda, large enough for me and my 32 chickens. After my siesta, I walked into the grocery store to get some carrots, I sure was hungry. And while I was checking out, I was swarmed with paparazzis!! I was so confused. What was going on?! They were all yelling, "MILEY! MILEY! SMILE FOR THE CAMERA MILEY!" I had realized they thought I was Miley Cyrus!! So distrout, I just smiled for the camera. Next thing I know, I was being dragged to the set of Hannah Montana. I felt like a horse that had just been caught by a lariat. I just had to go and pretend to be Miley. After I did the Hannah Montana show, they dragged me off, stuck me in a private jet setting off from a small airport. Then, I realized they were getting ready for me to sing at the Grammys. Now I wasn't so excited. Anon, I lost my great confedience, and became very bravado. I couldn't do this gig. I mean, diurnal, I sing in the shower, but I couldn't possibly sing for millions of people!

Women Writers

I think women writers differ from men because they have a different view on things, coming from the woman's perspective. Men and women may experience the same experiences, talk about the same topics, but they are different coming from a man or a woman. I don't think writing styles differ because of gender, but differ because of personality. It doesn't matter to me if a story is written by a man or a woman. But sometimes, depending on the topic, I like reading books by women because I could somewhat relate to the author, since I'm a female as well. I think it matters if the author is a man or woman. We have so many men authors, let's get some ladies in the literature!!

A Day Without Technology.

The day I was supposed to go a day without technology never happened. I had to use my phone to call my mom because she was worried about me. And I listened to my iPod. Oops.

Thoreau's View of Technology

Thoreau's view of technology is that he believes that the wonderful, amazing enviormenet that we were are on, has been ruined. It's turned from beautiful to hidious.

I don't agree with that because there are some places in this world that are still left, untouched with technology.

I use technology every day. My types of technology that I use are phones, computers, lights, and stoves. I don't think I could go a day without technology.
