Finding Jobs, an impossible task

For the past 3 months i have been trying to get a job, i have looked everywhere, and applied to atleast 10 places but it seems that every place is full or they just don`t feel the need to hire another teen.

Personally i`m starting to get worried because of the fact that not only coming closer to getting my liscense but i will also be going to cegep soon. so i will need to to pay many things with the money i don`t have.

Technology, the wonderful killer

Most people praise their many electronic devices that they use for their day to day activities. Technology is evolving at a very fast rate compared to a few years ago. 20 years ago, the things that were considered fantasy are now a reality for the most part. Cell phones are more like computers, and internet for sharing, creating and fun. People could barely imagine a world without internet, emails, and chatting services such as msn. Some of the simplest things, such as TV, movies, and even video games, have also evolved, and each one of these have grown tremendously and offer users a wide choice of opportunity and possibilities.

Although many will publicize modern technology for its achievements and evolutionary advancements, what most don`t realise is how it affected and still affects us today in a negative way. Technology has also affected many industries and sectors forcing them to shut down because they are out of demand for that certain type of work in the field around some less technological work.

        Newspaper companies, for example, have been hit very hard by the advancements in technology. Big newspapers and local agencies have been forced to lay off a large portion of their workers or shut down altogether, because of the already easy to access news on the internet which is free. Businesses and companies now rely heavily on digital printing methods for work brochures, magazines, and other advertisement methods they need to succeed, which puts traditional printing methods in a tough spot. Music does not need to be purchased in the music store anymore because you can simply buy it online or on iTunes, this creates a big problem for major music store chains and local businesses because they can’t sell their products anymore. The movie industry has also taken a big hit because DVD sales have decreased since people can simply go onto Netflix, or a movie streaming website for the same price and saving gas and time for traveling.

        As a result people are becoming lazier, and don’t feel the need or desire to step outside of their home to find entertainment and fun. This also creates many health risks, because people seemed to stop finding certain things fun such as sports like basketball or rugby with friends, or even simple things like going to a coffee shop to meet some friends. Technology is a privilege which may lead to the ending of human interaction altogether which is crucial for human evolution and repopulation. Therefore you should not let the wonderful but dangerous technology take over your life, instead try having some real fun for a change.

Party time it`s May!

School year coming to an end, does this mean you can slack off, or take it easy because you already successfully passed your previous terms or semesters? No, actually that`s the exact opposite of what your supposed to do. The end of the year usually means that the hardest part of the year is coming up, and that you will most likely be having trouble because you didn`t study enough or didn`t try.

Although you think that the year is over and it`s time to party, it really isn`t because that`s when most people actually fail because they slacked off and flunked their final exam. I personnally do occasionally slack off a little for certain courses, but overall I don`t really slack off until it`s june 21, or whenever my exams end.

Personnally, math is the hardest course for me, which is sort of weird because I`m in advanced math and I`m not really failling either its just that i`m having trouble understanding everything.

Anyway, the end of the year is deffinetly not a slack off time or party time. It`s time to put everything you learned through-out the year and try to practice and learn things you had trouble with. And that way when your final exam comes around, youactually can succeed.
