The Twenty First Century

Today at work, I work as a camp counselor at Oak Hill Day Camp, one of my six year old campers pulled out of her track bag an item that caught me off guard. Now many of my campers have brought their most prized possessions to camp, they would rather put these items in danger of becoming dirty or lost just to show them off to their "best friends." But my camper did not show me her stuffed dog she sleeps with every night or her "silky" a baby blanket I was once shown. But low and behold, she whips out a Samsung cell phone! Her cell phone.

All that to say that the twentith century has no limits. It seems to be like a stick of dynamite in the hands of people who yern for the rippling effects the explosion creates, hense a six year old with a cell phone. So as she so flagrantly displayed her embrace for the twenty first century I too dove into adventure and experience one of the fastest growing waves of this era, blogging. But in reality, blogging has been around since the beginning of time. Blogging is just the newest form of journaling, keeping a diary, except this is the type of diary that you can't hide from your siblings despite where you hide the key this time. Blogging is a way to express to the world absolutley anything that is on our mind. I have decided to name my blog All Things Considered naturally because I enjoy listening to NPR's All Things Considered. Oh to be as wise and educated as they...
