In class, we have switched to Python from Jeroo and I am finding myself missing Jeroo. I liked the images that Jeroo generated that showed my progress. It felt like I was playing a game or working through puzzles, whereas Python seems more mechanical. I imagine that Python is closer to what the men who sit in cubicles and work on computers all day are typing. There isn't really that interesting puzzle-like component.
I recently got an iPhone 4s and I am completely addicted to it. I listen to music on the bus and check my email and Facebook and read the New York Times. I play Temple Run and Nertz when I have free time and I can easily check the weather in the morning in the couple of minutes I have to get dressed. I love not having to remember to bring my phone and my iPod everywhere with me and I love that my phone and Ipod are both charged overnight in my iHome. I never need to worry about them dying while I am at school.
My mom, sister, and I all got iPhones at the same time and the guy that sold them to us recommended the Otterbox cases. We all got different colors and I got yellow. It helps me keep track of my phone and prevents the screen from cracking every time I drop it.
My mom is convinced that she has "created monsters" because we use our iPhones so much but I choose to think of it as improving our ability to connect with the world, rather than deteriorating it.
