INTERVIEW
We wanted to know the opinion of young about technology, so we decided to do some questions to Nicolas ortiz. The following is the interview:
>Do you think in any way that the technology
is changing your life style?
Of course, the technology is always right
there, the TV, the cell phones, computers, Internet, it is a total distraction.
My family and I have to watch TV just to have lunch together in the dinning
room, or before I go to sleep I always have to check my phone to see the latest
news on the Internet, if don’t, I can’t sleep at all.
>How is your social life surrounded by all this technology?
Sometimes it is exhausting because when
you want some time to relax and be with your friends, the phone is always
there, they are chatting or checking Facebook, or even just putting status
where they are, whatever, so, sometimes I miss the old times, when you had the
whole time to enjoy and to talk with each other and nothing else.
>Do you believe that technology
is useful for work?
Yes, for me it is very useful, because with all this hustle in the
office, you can’t always be aware of everything that happens around you, that’s
why we have the technology, now we can do many things at the same time, if you
have a problem you can fix it instantly and without hesitation. That’s how you
do it now, because time is precious.
>Finally, what do you think
about new generations growing with the technology inside, like a brain chip?
We have to be careful, because we found very important that kind of
skills, but like I was saying, sometimes the technology makes people useless,
so, our children must learn how to used and at the same time develop other
skills, that is what will make them successful. Like Albert Einstein once said,
“…I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction. The world
will have a generation of idiots”. Those days might be arriving if we do not
take care of our future generations. For some others now, we’ve already lost
them.
Last night, I went with my girlfriend to dinner, we were on a special ocasion because my girlfriend is going on a trip for a long time. So, we went to a restaurant, we like to go there because we know that restaurant have a good service and the food and drinks are delicious, but that night it was not such a good experience like we had before. Firstly, when we arrived to the restaurant we had to wait for a long time to get a table,when finally we had the chance to sit, we had to wait longer for them to clean it up. After, we order a few things, an entrance, a variety of sushi rolls and two house limonades. When the order came the entrance was almost burned, and the sushi's fish did no taste fresh, we couldn't eat it all like we used to do, besides that the lemonades were awful, we couldn't drink them at all, it was the worst experience we had there and it is a shame because my girlfriend and I love this place, we hope that it goes back to what it used to be before.
STEALING MY NEIGHBORS
It was 6 o'clock in the morning when I heard some noises on our neighbors roof, so I got up to find the source of the sounds.Then, I saw the shadow of a man and I thought It was weird because our neighbors were on a trip. At first I didn't realize it was a thief, but then I heard him trying to break the tiles to enter in the house. As soon as I noticed, I took the phone to call the police, they told me they were on their way here. While I was talking to them for the details, I heard crack and then a loud cry of pain. After 10 minutes of waiting the police finally arrived and got into the house. Surprisingly, we found the thief guy was lying on the floor crying and screaming for help, the reason was that the tiles broke up while he was trying to get into the house so he felt bad and broke his leg. Now he's in the hospital, we hope he has learned a lesson.
