The goods of the Internet

   The internet has changed the world in many good ways. As a starter, the internet has allowed people to socially communicate to each other, even when they are hundreds of miles away. Socializing with other people on Facebook or twitter is a great way for everyone to communicate. Another great example of the internet is that it makes writing an final's paper much easier. The internet offers a plethora of online sites and books that have all the information you need to write a paper.

      The internet has allowed people to jump start their business/ organization. By having a website, more people are able to have more customers or followers just by the fact that millions of people around the world can read your website. The internet has done many things for people around the world, but probably the most important ability the internet has given us is we are have complete knowledge of all of the world events
that are happening.The internet is a very useful and helpful tool for us to use.

Song of My Generation

  The song I was given was Young Blood by the Naked and Famous. This song is about a girl losing a relationship and she is remembering all the places they went and what they did there. I think the meaning of the song is that even tough a relationship is over, doesn't mean it has truly died. When she sings "fall back in love eventually", it clearly shows that she sees hope that the two of them will get back together.  The point the song brings out is don't believe that anything is truly over, it just goes away for awhile. I believe that my partner selected this song for our generation because it  describes what we think of ourselves and how we think. When the song says "Can't help myself but count the flaws", our generation does that. Most of my generation seems very worried about what others think him or herself and how he or she can change to make others like him or her not. This is not always good because then people are liking someone we truly are not. Another reason why this song fits my generation is when she sings "We're only young and naive still". Many (not all) people in my generation are naive. This song is about a break-up, thinking that they can have a lasting relationship. When in reality it will not work out (for the long run anyway). The final phrase that I think best describes our generation is when it says "Claw my way out through these walls". This small sentence describes our generation so well because our generation has a beautiful gift. We don't want to just be like everyone else, we want to make a name for ourselves. We claw our way out of the standard of the world, we set a new standard. This song fits our generation more than you would first think. All and all this song describes our generation pretty well. Both good and bad.
