Fashion through the ages

 

 

Before people used to wear more formal clothes, both men and women. The girls used to wear skirts and dresses, and then they started to use pants, but no sweatpants, they had to use formal pants. Also, girls used socks up to their knees. And the boys used to wear shirts because it was more formal than t-shirts.

 

Now teenagers use more sweatpants or jeans and the girls use more shorts t-shirts or big t-shirts and shorts. And the boys use normal t-shirts, and both use big sweaters. now clothes are more informal and more comfortable than before. I think that now the clothes are better because in my opinion they are more beautiful and comfortable.

                        Before:                                                                           Now:                                                                   

         

same free time, different activities.

I think you know that teenagers now don't do the same things with their Friends that our parents used to do with their friends. Generations before ours didn’t have phones or internet like us, so they needed more imagination to not get bored. They used to spend a lot of Time outside their houses with their friends. After school, they used to hang out with them, and practiced some sports, listened το music, or read magazines about fashion and clothes. Durning summer they climbed Trees, road bikes or spend time with their Friends.

 Most of teenagers now don't do these things. They prefer to be on their phones most of the day, and if they hang out with their friends they probably play videogames or watch a movie. But teenagers now also like spending time outside; they go for walks, play sports, and in the summer, they hang out with their friends and go to a swimming pool or the beach. Some teenagers now spend a lot of Time using Technology, and for their parents it can be annoying. I think it is not ok to spend so much time on your phone, and teenagers now should go outside more and spend their time in another activities.

Technology through the ages

 

TECHNOLOGY THROUGH THE AGES

 

In the late 90s when people started to use the Internet in Argentina, was a change in their. lives. Before, to research of communicate, they had to go to the library of send letters, but when the internet Appeared, it was like opening a door to a new world. It was very exciting for them.

 

Technology has changed a lot, in the late 90s, young people didn't Have a TV, computer, phones, etc. Can you imagine?. Only some people, at their Home, Had a gramophone If they wanted to listen to music, and a Radio to listen to the news. When the internet arrived in Argentina, it would take Forever to load a webpage, but For them, it was amazing to be able to access information from all over the world.

 

Nowadays,  technology is awesome, but sometimes, we use it a lot. I Like that we can talk to Friends and find stuff on the internet, but I'm Worried that we spend too much time on screen's and Forget to live in the real world.

                  Videogames through the times

Do you want to know how videogames were before? Well, it all started in the 1970s when videogames were born. So, how was it? Well, people didn´t have a tv to play with. Instead, they had to go to a specific place called “arcade” to play, and it wasn´t free. The videogames were slow and really pixelated and they were in a single machine. In other words, a machine could just hold 1 videogame. Some videogames that were popular were Pac-Man and Super Mario Bros. You basically could just spend all day there, but people weren´t too interested and were doing other things.

These were the arcades. A place to play old videogames. Not many of these places are still open….

Nowadays, teenagers are glued to videogames, they spend more time playing such videogames like Roblox, Fortnite, Etc… all in their phones. So, what happened to the arcades? Do we still have them in our generation? Well yes, but they aren´t visited as much as before, and there aren´t many in the world either. So, what do you think? Was it better before how it is to now?
