TECHNOLOGY the TERMINATOR


All this starting a blog seemed really exciting but now it just dawned upon me that the experience of it is just putting me head to head with one of my enemies of the 21st Century-technology! The warfare between me and the machine was officially declared a war in grade 11 when i failed Information Technology. Of course daddy dearest was stunned exclaiming,"We have a computer at home.What went wrong?" to this i gave a sheepish smile internally thinking you don't know the little monsters. i have always had a theory about technology especially computers and it was way before watching any of the terminator movies. The terminator movies simply confirmed my theory. Technology is gonna take over the world and not in the good sense you maybe thinking. I do sincerely believe computers will become smarter than us one day and to this you may argue nothing ever beats the creator which is quite valid and true yet all the great minds behind our technology is passing away. Take Steve Jobs (Lord bless his soul) and people keep adding on new stuff,new advances nowadays you really cant assign an invention to one man. Do you think Henry Ford would be able to drive our cars? Technology can be quite a wonderful thing i wouldn't be able to blog without it. For me its our constant and growing reliability on it that encourages laziness and takes away classic beauty of being. When was the last time you wrote a letter? i know one of the first things i do when i wake up is check whats new on twitter.When i put jokes aside and actually think about it and call me crazy it scares the jebbies out of me. Hence i have decided to do the brave thing and take on the mission of finishing Sarah Connor's job. Watching Terminator two,wow her character was amazing for lack of a better word. Inspiring strong woman fighting for what she believes. To this day her escape from the asylum remains one of my favourite scenes from an action movie (starts a slow clap with tears in my eyes). I am defiantly not as physically strong as her but i consider myself a prodigy as i am continuing on her legacy of making the world aware of the potential dangers of technology that at present seem far fetched. there is soo much more to write but i think yol get the point. It will not be the last i mention of it.
