In Michael Wesch’s “A Vision of Students Today” it talks about the students now and the people of the future. It says that students now in college will deal with problems and will have jobs that no one even knows about. Some of the students now a days are overwhelmed by school and don’t have any time to relax. It says that people say technology will save us but nothing has helped.
As I was watching this video, all I could think was if these people are dealing with these problems now, what will I be struggling with? What’s going to help me? In a way this video scared me because I think that my life can be overwhelming at times but when I get older it’s going to just get worse. What am I going to do? It shocked me that an average college student has a 26.5 hour day and this amazes me how these people can deal with this. Knowing that an average college student will be $2,000 in debt by the time they graduate makes me nervous when I go to college. But I do feel lucky knowing I’m not one of the people in the world that make less than one dollar. This does make me sad but I do feel very grateful. This video really made me think and ponder my own thoughts. It just blows me away knowing that when I leave college I will probably have a job that doesn’t exist today and that I’m preparing for that job now. This video left me with three questions that I don’t think anyone could answer; what will I be doing in the future? Where will I be? How will I do in the real world?
