Narrative Script


Narrative Script
    Looking back at our generation, we have had many pro's and con's. Our generation is made up of many complex things such as technology, famous TV shows, the latest fashion, and famous actors. We have become much more complex with astrology, and things that are affecting our planet. In this project I will talk about our generation, and the many things that it has given to the enviornment. 
    One major part of our generation is our technology. Throughout the years, our technology has improved greatly from modern PC's to touchscreen iPhones. Nowadays, we can easily do almost any activity on the iPhone such as watch videos, having easy internet access, playing games, and being able to find the nearest Italian restaurant if your hungry. Another thing that has improved in our generation is our fashion. Although we still have clothes that are inspired by the 80's, famous fashion trends from our generation include leggings, converse, lace, floral print, and especially skinny jeans.
    Although we have many pro's in our generation, there are also some con's that we are known for. Some con's that happened in our generation was 9/11, Hurricane Katrina, the earthquake that destructed Haiti, the 2004 indian ocean earthquake, and the tsunami that has recently hit Chile. There have been many cons that have struk our generation, but we want to be remembered for our pro's, and not so much the con's.
