Valley, technophobes Why does my school have to be soo afraid of technology? Seriously? I know our school is in the middle of a corn field but they can still embrace technology. Wehn i bring in my notebook to do some work on it at school I get death stares from everyone including the teachers and the admins. Why? I know of schools where you must have a laptop to go. They are a great way to organize your stuff and take notes in class. But I would want WIFI in school and that isn't going to happen. Sometimes if I want wireless access at school I'll take my extra router and just plug it into an open ethernet jack. The bad thing is that the walls in the school are soo thick that they limit my wifi access to around a room or 2 from the router. I know a lot of the teachers would love to have wireless for their school provided notebooks. They now have to carry really long ethernet cables and people trip over all the time. I know the school has money, you can't say they don't. I also get weird looks when I bring my digital camera to school. No one at my school likes to get their picture taken. I love to shoot pics but I hate to get stares at funny. I do shoot pics for the yearbook but i keep that on the low. If you take pictures of girls they think you are stalking them and if you take pics of guys then you are I hate that! Oh well, not too much longer at taht school then its off to college where that technology is accepted. But the bad thing to leaving TVHS is leaving the girl I love. I'm torn.
