if you REALLY knew me, you would know that...

i want to do something a little different than what i have been writing.  i have been thinking lately about what people know about each other, to put it simply.  there are always things that people dont know about you.  i think its fun to learn more about each other so here are a few things that you might not have known about me... i like to call it "if you REALLY knew me, you would know that..."

so, if you REALLY knew me you would know that...

1. I FULL HEARTEDLY LOVE JESUS CHRIST
2. i really like the LAKERS
3. derek fisher is my favorite player
4. i secretly love country music
5. if i could go bare foot i would 365 days a year
6. i don't like small cars at all
7. i LOVE my family
8. i hate being alone
9. im pretty sarcastic
10. i cant stand it when people chew with their mouth open

that is just a few things that you might not have known about me.

technology

what would happen if you had NO technological devices right now?  would you be able to finish your conversation? would you miss that e-mail? would you not be able to get to where you are going? I think in this day and age we, including myself, relay on our cell phones, computers, ipods and what ever else we use on a daily basis too much.  if all of that was taken away for just 24 hours without any notice that it would be gone would you be fine with that? or would you feel disconnected and not know what to do with yourself?  cell phones are great, but i think we depend on them more than we might think.  we dont even realize that we carry it around EVERYWHERE we go.  with the technology now, we dont need anything else, all we need is on that one device.  but, what happens when you suddenly dont have that device anymore? our world gets turned upside down and we dont know what to do with ourselves.  we let our mind wonder if you are missing out on anything because you cant text anyone back if they texted you.  or you have to actually go onto your computer to see if you have any new e-mails.  eventually we wont need to leave our house because you will be able to do ANYTHING if you have access to the internet.  its kind of weird to think about. so think about it! how attached to your phone are you?
