OWD

How has the internet changed my life? Well I don’t know if it has really changed my life because most kids my age have grown up with the internet growing as well. It has, however, given me opportunities that my parents never had when they were my age. Over this first semester of university the internet has helped me to keep in touch with my friends and family and makes it seem like nothing ever changed. Rewind a little farther back, maybe a year back. At that time the internet was helping me research to make one of the biggest decisions of my life, where I wanted to go to school. Without this great tool there’s a good chance I would have ended up at a university a little closer to home, and a little less suited for me. I was able to discover some great things about Guelph, share them with my parents, and even brought a few friends onto the bandwagon with me. That’s probably the most important thing the internet has helped me with in my entire life.

ps. Guelph was a great decision, in case anyone was wondering =)
