Teenagers Thoughts-Final Draft

Teenagers Thoughts

The aim of this essay and report is to understand what are teenagers use and choose about gadgets, public transportations, and games. I interviewed 5 friends in my class, and here are their thoughts:

Gadgets

Teenagers nowadays choose BlackBerry as their gadgets. All people I interviewed are using BlackBerries. They use it because BB is fast, simple, free, and modern. The facilities are also complete. But they sometimes hate it too because the connection is crowded which makes BB do ‘pending’ on BBM (BlackBerry Messengers) and low internet connection. These teenagers also have dream-gadgets (gadgets they are craving right now). Most of them want Ipad and other Apple products, and one of them wants a galaxy-tab or MacBook.

Public Transportation

2 of my friends choose to use TransJakarta Bus. One of them sometimes uses it to go to Kota Tua, and the other uses it to go home. 1 of my friends sometimes goes to school by Metromini Bus. The other one sometimes goes to his course place by taxi. And I have one friend who never uses public transportation at all, she chooses using her own car because it’s more comfortable. But all of my friends prefer their own cars to public transportations, because it’s safer and more comfortable.

Games

All of my friends have played traditional games. They like it. They don’t think it’s a shame to play traditional games. They also think traditional games can help us doing some physical exercise… But, they prefer modern games to traditional games, because they don’t know who to play traditional games with. And however, technologies beat everything. Modern games are better.

 

The conclusion is that teenagers (in Indonesia) nowadays love to use BlackBerry as their gadgets and want Apple products as their dream-gadget. They've gone to places with public transportation, but they prefer personal transportation such as their own cars. They like to play traditional games, but they love modern games much more.
