Assignment 5

For this assignment I decided to interview my grandma. Talking to her was awesome because she does not live in California so I only get to see her once or twice a year. She was born in 1930, and she started off by telling me about her childhood. She told me about how back then life was so different then now without technology. One thing she mentioned was that she enjoys her lifetime because she was able to experience life with and without technology. She also mentioned that today we are to materialistic. This really made me reflect. She said that in her time they didn't waste things like we do now, especially if it still works. "It's harder for you guys to be happy because you all want the latest and greatest" those are her exact words. It left me thinking maybe it is good sometimes to live a more simple life without having to buy the latest electronic all the time.
