        I think I've talked about technology before, but there's this new cool thing on YouTube where people can make videos using this bootleg camera which allows you to view the video 360 degrees. 360 DEGREES.

        Yesterday my buddies talked about it on Skype. When they mentioned 360, I thought of it as like, the Xbox or something. I didn't really pay attention 'till today, where a buddy of mine brang it up again. I searched up "360"on YouTube and holy hell, right when I clicked the move buttons on Roman Atwood's video (it was the first one that popped up), I was like "HOLY HELL".

        i had a lot of fun with that video. I looked at the comments and someone mentioned that it worked with phones as well. I was like "Wait, no, it can't be..." referring to how when looking around with a phone, it would move the camera around as well. Yep, it did that. I had a good 10 minutes of fun just, viewing a bunch of videos in 360 degrees.

        I didn't really prepare to witness this new technology, so I kinda freaked out a bit. Just a bit. And then that got me thinking, the future is now. I mean, we got hoverboards in the making, biotech security with finger-print scanners, touch-screens, virtual reality games, and now, 360 degree viewable videos. Like damn, what a time to be alive, and I haven't even been through all of High School yet.

        Anyways, yes, I did play Terraria and League today. It is, 12:24 PM. Umm, my dad's coming over tomorrow, and then on Saturday we're gonna head home. And uh, yeah. After playing with buddies on League, we were talking a bit about college and well, I had the thought that, soon we'll be too busy, we'll be in dfferent cities, maybe even states, and we might never do this online gaming ever again, or any other interaction.

        My 6th grade elementary school teacher said that we think our friends will be BFF's and all that, but in reality our friends right now (in 6th grade) aren't going to be our friends in the future, and that in college is where we meet our real friends. I thought "Woah, that's pretty harsh to tell 6th graders man". Not sure if anyone else thought so, but hey. So uh, yeah, see you tomorrow.
