I read this article by skimming and reading the parts of the article that caught my eye most. I didn't read all of this article beause parts of it was so boring for me that I couldn't stand to sit there and read that part. This article is talking all about how google has changed all of our lives, not for the better but for the worse. Google has been helpful for speed but us Americans are now just taking advantage of the fastness. We don't just use google for a few thing we now use google for everything because every American knows that google has everything anybody needs to know within seconds. The part of the article that cauyght my eye the most is whenever they are talking about not reading full things anymore they just skim over everything they have to read now days. Hear is a quote that one of the guy interview's said “I now have almost totally lost the ability to read and absorb a longish article on the web or in print,” thanks to the internet I beilive that google hasn't made us less smart it has just made us more lazy. We now can just type anything into the "search" panel and our answer and research needed pops up right there within seconds of searching. Overall this website created to be helpful every now and again has turned into the worlds number one thing.
I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I
believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything
seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I
believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles

As I continue reading this book it starts to get better and better. This time I read about how Marisa's dad is more supportive of her mental disorder, such as bipolar and depression, than her mother is. A quote in the book that leads me to this thought is " Mom is always more comfortable talking to me when I'm feeling normal, but dad reaches out no matter what. Let's just say mom didn't talk to me much when I was at my worse." In the next chapter I read Marisa goes over to her neighbor Nash's house to do a chemistry lab write up. This is the second scene in the book with these two characters and you can really tell, even from the start, that there is an "awkward" flirtatious connection between them. I feel as a first time reader of this book the further along in the story we will see Nash and Marisa together.

Waiting for You

I have just started this book and so far it has really caught my eye. It's a super girly book, which I love so much. It's about this girl named Marisa that is starting her sophomore year of high school and she wants to start it as a new person. She just spent two months at a summer camp and she has returned home. the first thing she does is go see her best friend Sterling. When she see's Sterling she noticed that she isn't her dark brown hair any more she is blonde. Marisa's first reaction is " oh my god, you hair!" Marisa of course says she loves it but really she doesn't. Here comes the first day of school and Marisa is super excited until she realizes she has no classes with Sterling. Marisa is upset about it but she looks over to Sterling and she has already moved on to a new group of "friends". That's all I have gotten to so far in the book I can really tell that I will enjoy this book and its already amazing and I already never want to put the book down.
