30 years from now...

We will all be under water. Just kidding. Time has a way of doing stuff to people like making them famous or tearing apart friends and relationships or making us look older. Can you imagine what the world will be like 30 years from now. I heard somewhere that scientists predict that in the year 2049, a $1000 computer will have greater processing power than the entire human race. The question I want to ask is: Will it be a PC or a Mac? But seriously, that is a lot of change. Now that I'm in university, I hear all these crazy stories that have happened at my old highschool since I had left or all the things that have happened to my highschool friends since we all went our seperate ways. What will that 30 year high school reunion be like? Surely, somone will be rich and someone will be famous and someone will be a drug addict but probably not the same person, although it is possible. There really doesn't seem to be much purpose for a 30 year high school reunion as most people will have probably forgotten each other. I have a sneaky suspicion that schools put these events on to motivate students to become successful so they won't be embarrased when the kid they used to tease and who has just arrived in a ferrari asks them what the hell they have done with their life all these years. I'll admit, it is pretty good motivation. It's times like these when you really regret attending an IB school.
