Life styles
Each one got their own life style
Some live better others don’t
Some feel bigger than others
Some got more others got less
Money, skin, eyes, hair
Do it really matter?
It is just a small difference
We’re all the same
Some copies others people style
Be someone else
This is secondary
Because the real you still inside of you
Everyone is unique

Technology
Technology will change our lives in the next century. For example,some of the changes will take place on information technology, biotechnology, transportation and in so many others. These changes will change the way people live today. It will be also negatives changes with the technology in the future.
First the computer technology is to be one of the major changes to become in the future. In the past there weren’t so much web pages to navigate in the Internet, however now we have million of web pages and in the future it will be even more and better than it is now. The transportation will also be better, flying car will become to make the peoples life much better and easier related to there will be car that will not contaminate the air and prevent the world from global warming.
Biotechnology genetically modified crops. This procedure will help people to grow crops in places or climates that were impossible to. Plants will survive in any were no matter if is not their habitat, people will grow different types of fruit in any other kind of tree, for example they could grow a apples in a lime tree. Related to, human being will be modified to eliminated inherited diseases and so many other problems, also new cures will be found.
A serious problem that will be face is global warming. But with the new technology other alternative sources will be use to prevent this problem. Like the solar energy, nuclear energy also we will abandon the car we have today and use energy efficient ones.
Finally, technology is expected to be better in the future also coming with some problems made by the men hand, however with the technology advanced will be expected to solve most of the problems these to the benefit of all the human beings.

An Essay about Technological Change
There have been dramatic technological changes over the past 100 years, such as electricity, motorized transport, aircraft, space exploration, medical advances, computer technology.
Important changes have taken place in the coming century, esp. In the following areas: information technology; biotechnology; alternative energy sources.
The first area of significant change is likely to be computer technology it has developed rapidly in the past few decades. Bill Clinton became US pres. In Jan 1993 - only 50 WebPages existed on the Internet. This is still likely to be a major area of change in the coming decades. Computerized houses are already invented, where your fridge can be programmed to order fresh milk.
Another area of change is the biotechnology is likely to change our lives significantly. Genetically modified crops will grow in climates that were previously impossible. For example wheat in semiarid areas and tropical fruits in the far north will be grow. And will also have higher yields than in the past. Livestock will be modified to produce higher yields of milk and meat. Human beings will be modified to eliminate inherited diseases.
A major challenge facing the world at the end of the 20th century. Global warming resulting from man made pollution. It is likely that alternative energy sources will soon be exploited more seriously. Solar, wind and wave energy Nuclear energy will be also made. Perhaps we will abandon high speed vehicles and accept slower, more energy efficient ones to the benefit of our own existence because of the global warming problem these will help us preserve the world.
In summary, we can expect major changes in the areas of IT. Biotechnology and energy use, also the technology to be better in a future to the benefit of all the human being.

poem
I'm like the wind going alone
I'm fast running everywhere
Going from place to place
As trees blowing so we can breathe
So that the trees blow so hard that the lives can fly
The wind winning with his fast blowing
The wind blowing
I start breathing
We bread when the trees blow
Breath when it blows to live
Which trees that blow
Is the only thing I know
I'm fast running everywhere
Going from place to place
As trees blowing so we can breathe
So that the trees blow so hard that the lives can fly
The wind winning with his fast blowing
The wind blowing
I start breathing
We bread when the trees blow
Breath when it blows to live
Which trees that blow
Is the only thing I know
