Technology

Honestly, I am not familiar with these technology tools. I believe that technology is best used when there is only a certain amount of it. I really don't like it when people try to use technology for things that it is not necessary for. For example, my parents try to use technology way too much. I believe this is a common theme in older generations because they feel like they need to exploit every ounce of new technology they can. My parents are a huge fan of the Google homes and voice-activated systems that help you navigate the web or play your favorite playlists. Personally, I think a voice recording box that sits in your living room is a terrible idea, because it has a microphone that is always hooked up to the internet. To believe that this voice-recording system is only "activated" when you tell it to is honestly quite foolish. This is how I feel about a lot of technology. Too many times, people overcomplicate methods by incorporating technology. This has been the case throughout my educational career, from online textbooks to online homework. As the saying goes, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. When it comes to my computer, I use the basic functions of it. I know there are a lot of extensions out there that I could use, but I honestly don't feel the need to expand and use some of them.

Howdy y’all, my name is Ethan Rafferty, a 3 rd  year student at the University of Oklahoma. I’ve been a sooner fan since I was born, because my Dad attended the university, so I was raised around the culture. One could say that I was brainwashed to go here, but I truly do love the school, from the academics, to the campus, to the sports. I am 21 years old, and I am from Flower Mound, Texas, a suburb just north of Dallas. There, I was raised by my mother and father with my two sisters. I am the middle child, and also the only boy, so it was quite the experience growing up with my siblings.              My major is Health Exercise Science. I did not initially come to OU with that as my plan, but after my first semester, I realized that natural sciences and exercise physiology interested me way more than any business degree. I believe the best part about my major is that it can allow me to help others once I graduate,...

Week 3 Story: The Great Rock

Image
            There once was a kingdom of monkeys that lived deep within the jungle. This was The Kingdom of Vihren, where monkeys from all over the planet traveled to behold the magnificent land. The King of Virhen was a noble monkey named Jakook.                          One day, Jakook decided he would offer a test of strength for monkeys from all over the world to come try, in order to find a suitor for his monkey daughter, Sina. In front of the kingdom gates laid an enormous rock. This rock had been there for thousands of years, and it had never moved. Jakook declared that any monkey that could lift the rock could have Sina’s hand in marriage.             Monkeys from all over the lands came, including big powerful apes. However, none could move this rock. Then one mor...
