How do you get your news right now? How does it differ from 10 years ago?
As things seemingly get crazier in the news I have noticed myself less likely to seek out the news. Getting updated on the latest world happenings is important to me, however, too many horrible things continue to happen and I can only consume so much of it at a time. Even though I do not actively go looking for it, news stories do eventually make their way into my life.
If I look back 10 years I believe that I was still occasionally reading newspapers and watching the nightly news. Outside of that friends, family, co-workers and the radio were usually the sources that gave me the most information. When I was working customers would also bring events up in conversations. For example: when Michael Jackson died it was customers that brought it to my attention. I thought it was some type of hoax and it wasn’t until later that evening when I did some research that I found out it was true. I often didn’t hear about major events until days or even weeks later.

I love going shopping online because I can discover things I may not normally see in stores. Usually I just create wishlists and they sit there until the holidays or my birthday comes around. Then I share them with friends and family that ask what I want. I usually can’t think of anything off the top of my head so wishlists come in handy. Here are the items that I recently added to my wish list.
