I can be with friends easier, but it stresses me out in many other things, such as school work, as my wifi is more unstable than a chair with 2 legs. This stresses me out because I have a dependency to need technology in quite a few situations, but when the wifi crashes i want to just do everything on paper. In total, my relationship with technology is very good at some times, but angers me greatly in others.]]> 2018-08-24 07:10:38 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078711 decipher1987 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078714 Technology for me is a big part of my life as it is my main source of music and gaming. For me, social media isn't very important to me, the only time i would ever use it would be to talk to my family or contact my friends. it doesn't really express my self as much as it helps me be my self. when i listen to music or just play games with others, it's really fun and it just helps me get away from life for a while whenever i need to wind down.]]> 2018-08-24 07:10:40 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078714 mesaisacoolsa https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078721 I have enjoyed the benefits of technology for years, and really enjoy using technology for recreational activities such as watching videos or playing games. I find that using technology has helped me express myself, as I use it to listen to music, watch videos, and simply enjoy myself and my life. It allows me to talk with other people and socialize, which has been a huge part of me in 8th grade. When I originally used technology, I thought I was manipulating it to help me achieve things. Looking back now, I realize it was really the other way around. Technology has changed and, in a way, manipulated me in many ways. I have been able to use technology with much ease, so I never really felt like I should really take a break away from technology, despite being told to do so many times.]]> 2018-08-24 07:10:41 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078721 ashley_li https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078729 Sometimes technology can take over my life and effect my working habits. But it also allows me to contact my friends  and talk with them at the same time. It definitely helps me express myself because as I make new friends on social media, it also develops my personality and I am able to talk to people I usually wouldn't talk to. Technology has changed me by encouraging me to be less shy and to be able to open up to people.]]> 2018-08-24 07:10:42 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078729 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078731 I like using technology, it helps me to be able to look up and be in contact with people whenever i want to. i think i care too much about my phone and i am unable to go anywhere without it. technology helps me express myself because i am able to put out to the world my thoughts and express what i think about a certain topic, i am also able to capture in video and picture form what is happening at the moment. it has changed me because i unable to do anything without it. if i has never seen a phone or computer before i wouldnt feel this way. i am able to reach people all over the world without having to go to that country, this makes things a lot easier and cheaper. technology helps me feel entertained because there is so many funny movies and shows available to me and this is why i like technology.]]> 2018-08-24 07:10:44 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078731 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078734 To me I do like technology, because it has made a lot of things easier. Technology can be very helpful to, because it can connect me with people countries away from me, but it can also take away time form me because i'm constantly on my devices. Technology has changed me a lot throughout the years, it has helped me socialize, make friends. But Sometimes technology can be overwhelming, for example when your Wifi's. besides that I do like technology a lot.

I like technology, some times, i find it useful, some times it just gets annoying.  Technology has helped  me a lot, and i love it. But I still need to learn the ways to live without technology like doing calculations with out a calculator, reading books instead of watching movies and correct my spelling by using a dictionary instead of using technology. Technology can express a person in many ways, well for me, technology expresses me as a gamer and a camping person. ]]> 2018-08-24 07:10:46 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078736 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078742 I listen to music on my phone with spotify
I check homework on dx, which is on my computer
I check my times and rankings, on my computer
If its late, and I'm hungry I watch cookings shows on YouTube
In general I think technology is a good thing for me – it allows me to express myself on social media, I can work efficiently, and I don't get as bored.  The thing about technology is usage. Like alcohol, using it in moderation is good. Technology also annoys me as well, sometimes Fortnite lags extremely hard even though I may be right next to a wifi router. Sometimes I might try to check homework, but DX won't load or might sign me out. Thats when taking a break come in.]]> 2018-08-24 07:10:47 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078742 elly_kim https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078748 I spend a lot of time on technology everyday. Including school-related things, I also spend time on social medias and watching videos. It has made communicating a lot more easier and efficient than before. Also, the fact that all information are accessible on internets, makes things more easier to find out. However, spending too much time has invaded my time that I used to spend on outdoor activities.  Before, I used to go outside to hang out with friends more often. Now, I find myself sitting on the sofa with my laptop on my legs during weekends.]]> 2018-08-24 07:10:51 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078748 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078751 Some people say that technology is replacing human interaction and that it's "bad". For me, I feel like it allows more people to get connected on things like social media. For a shy person like me, technology helps me open up and talk to and get to know people that I wouldn't otherwise talk to. Social media helps me express myself and my ideas. There's always a downside (people not agreeing with your opinions, cyberbullying, etc.), but I think it has helped more than harmed me. Technology has made submitting homework, managing my time and chatting with friends easier. Technology has been such a huge part of everyone's lives that it is hard to be without.]]> 2018-08-24 07:10:51 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078751 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078755 E]]> 2018-08-24 07:10:53 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078755 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078756 My relationship with technology so far is good. Technology had help me when I needed it the most. It also brings in entertainment for me and lets me socialize to people that I have never met before. The world is huge and one great thing about internet/technology is that it brings us together. But one thing that tech bugs is when it starts to fall behind in speed and accuracy.

For example, I can contact my friends whenever I want by messaging or calling them, we can also make presentations much easier and efficiently by putting pictures and effects and more. However, technology often gives us difficulty such as messing up the work that was almost finish or someone who is not related with me might hack my personal information.

It helps me daily in every aspect: when I am doing my homework, when I am watching anime, when I am eating, etc. I really enjoy the convenience and benefits that technology brings. It also helps me to communicate (express myself) easier and faster especially online. It has not changed me that much compared to people who are much elder than me because I was born with all these modern inventions. ]]> 2018-08-24 07:11:33 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078835 lynn_chen1 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078837 "Do you want to be successful when you grow up?" This was my mother's sole answer proceeding my pleads for a mobile device for at least six years now. "Everyone in my class has one! Why am I so different!" Frustrated, my hands finally fly up this time. "I never know what's happening! It's like you're trying to keep me from socializing healthily." My mother huffs at me for brazenly defying her, furrowing her brows in dissatisfaction. Continuing her argument, my mother replies, her tone as calm as possible (but her frantic hand gestures suggest otherwise)  landing her one hand on my shoulder: "Na, you see la' (Chinglish interjections), Lynn, you know Bill Gates kids? Even though they're super rich because of their father, his children are still very successful today and don't rely on their parents. You know reason why? Hmm? Bill Gates wouldn't let their children have a phone until they were in high-school! Isn't that ironic, ah? He runs one of the most biggest tech companies!" And just like that, what my mother said before is still etched into my wrinkly brain. When I got my first phone just two months ago, it was like a huge responsibility and a gift of trust from my mother, whom expounded the importance of self-discipline immediately after handing me the machinery. Since I was young, my mother strictly restricted me to certain types of entertainment that appeared on technology; any violation resulted in a heavy reprimand and a usual confiscation of the device to "reflect on my behavior". Since the day my interactions to inanimate objects further expanded into electronic devices, it was not unusual for me to land in quandaries that tore me between social media (shamefully betraying my mother's trust) and genuine work. Technology can be a symbol of human advancement, but it can also become an impediment to continuous growth to success. Now-days, I train myself to tear away from these distractions and motivate myself to prioritize human interactions and education. We are humans, not electric machines of metal.]]> 2018-08-24 07:11:33 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078837 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078855 My relationship with technology is good because I use my laptop to check homework, spend a lot of time on social media and etc.]]> 2018-08-24 07:11:44 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078855 lang_du https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078930 I like technology, I feel like it can be a really useful thing in people's life, and that depends on how you want to use it. I think technology changed some parts of my life, more or less. I'm using it as a tool. For me, I don't think technology can express myself, and even it works, I won't do it. I barely post anything on my social media. But it can really help to communicate with people more conveniently]]> 2018-08-24 07:12:21 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078930 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078959 Technology is a part of everyone's life. From the time you wake up until you go to sleep, technology is used almost at all times. microwaves, phones, computers, refrigerators, these are just some examples of technology we use on a daily basis. I personally think technology is not abad thing. It is a great way to make life easier from not spending hours washing your clothes to being able to find the definition of anything within seconds. Social Media is a way that people express themselves, however, I am not very active on social media, so I do not think technology helps me much expressing myself because my hobbies and passions do not involve technology. Technology has existed since I was born, so, I can't say if it changed me or not in any particular way. Technology is a great way for people no connect with each other,  get tasks done a lot faster than it needs to and in my opinion, is a great way to improve your life. ]]> 2018-08-24 07:12:36 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275078959 allisonmarz_beijing https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275079134 Technology is a constant challenge for me. While it is helpful in my life because it offers services such as payment (via WeChat) and connections to home, often times it becomes more of a hinderance than a help. I spend countless hours navigating the rigid formatting of Microsoft Word and, as of this moment, I still cannot figure out how to create a page break without wreaking havoc on my entire document.

I spend the majority of my day behind a screen, may it be my phone, my camera, or my computer. I do so because technology allows me to express myself in a way that no other medium can. All and all technology has shaped me as a person; from the way I spend my time, to the way I approach everyday issues.  ]]> 2018-08-24 07:17:32 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275079728 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275370216 21st century has been infected by technology, which proves that we rely on it for information. I use it for both information and entertainment,  as well as communication. Without technology, we would quite literally go crazy at how our minds would become. Technology has saved the people from vanishing, but it is also the potential cause of our harm. ]]> 2018-08-26 13:50:22 UTC https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275370216 https://padlet.com/allisonmarz_beijing/technology/wish/275420168 Technology is part of our everyday lives whether it is using a computer for writing essays or simply accessing social media as entertainment. I for instance use technology for both aspects and spend an abundant amount of hours behind a screen. For majority of the time, technology has had a positive impact on me, minus my eyesight however. Some may say that social media can negatively influence a person by putting negative pressure on them to being someone they’re not; to shape their thoughts into what society thinks. Overall, if it weren’t for technology’s existence we wouldn’t be able to live in such a modernized world and be capable to do so much things and behave and think differently from the past.
