Texting ban law

I think that Arlington is on the right track with this new law. Texting while driving should really be banned because too many accidents are caused by it. The rest of Texas, and the rest of the country, really, should follow this rule to save lives. Texting shouldn't even be done when a driver is at a stoplight; eyes should be on the road at all times and the driver should be paying attention to his surroundings. The truth is, no text message can ever be worth your life or the lives of other people.

Why is freedom so important in our country?

I think that freedom is what separates America from everywhere else because you can pretty much do whatever you want here. I think that we take that for granted sometimes because when you think about it, some places have it really bad. Really conservative cultures censor media or clothes or other freedoms we don't really think about here. Freedom allows our nation to grow as a culture and as a people. It influences the way we think and the way we express ourselves. Freedom is the basis of this country and is a relevant part of our lives.

My favorite piece of technology

I love my iPhone. I don't care if the iPhone 4 has a front camera or that the iPhone 5 is coming out in a couple of months, I love my iPhone 3GS. First of all, it's purple, which is the bomb, and it has sentimental meaning to me. It has all my pictures in it, all my games are saved in there, and I got some paid apps for free using this phone! I love my phone because even if I got a new phone, I'd be way too lazy to transfer all my contacts and junk. So I love my phone.

If you could bring back any trend, what would it be?

For some reason, I want to bring back poodle skirts from the 1940s. They are adorable, and I think it would be the best thing ever if I could wear clothes with fluffy poodles on them! So cute! Plus, they look super comfortable and swingy, you could just get on the dance floor and jive or whatever dance they did back then. Bring back the poodles!

A talent I wish I had

I seriously wish that I could sing like an opera singer. I don't know why, but I feel like that would be the coolest thing ever. I would seriously belt out everything I say opera style whenever I talk. People would be impressed.
