Tonight I am going to my friend’s dorm to cook dinner. This is exciting to me because I have a meal plan and I usually go to Andros for dinner every night. Since I am giving up meat for lent my eating choices are limited and therefore I am going to make my own dinner. We are going to make rice with black beans and tofu to fulfill my daily dose of protein. We will also be adding mixed vegetables to our rice o ensure that we get all or nutrients. After we finish cooking our dinner, we are going to take it to my friend’s boyfriend’s dorm where we will eat it with him and my other friend. After we are done eating we will watch movies. I want to watch a scary movie but I think that my friend is scared and won’t want to watch it. I however, am excited to watch scary movies; I love to experience the thrill and horror of scary movies. I don’t understand why people get scared about watching scary movies, I think they are fun. In particular, I enjoy watching the ones about ghosts. I like to watch the story that they are talking about with the supernatural and souls because I do believe that ghosts exists. In contrast, I despise watching horrors movies with gory scenes in it. Nevertheless, I am excited to try out cooking and then have fun with my friends.
I found a news article on the bay news 9 website that was talking about changes that dell was making in what they sell. It says that now they are going to stop selling processors with AMD which stands for Advanced Micro Devices. I think that this may have a negative influence on us as consumers because now that they are, yet again, changing something in computers, it will be a more of a challenge for us to stay on top with the latest computers. On the other hand, he AVD is supposed to be for government and business computers only so I think that in the sense of us as regular people, it may be a good thing that they are making the computers better suited for different types of people and considering what they will be used for. This article also shows that while dell made these changes, shares rose considerably. I find this to be an interesting fact because it shows how much of a difference the Advanced Micro Devices have and how much it affects sales of the product. Nonetheless, this change with dell does not surprise me at all. I am not surprised because I know that there are always changes in technology and with computers and I predict that with time there will be numerous other changes as well. I think that this is something that our society has come to view as normal and nothing out of the ordinary.
