Yo people!
So today I had a great family outing to Black Creek Pioneer Village in Vaughn. It was a preservation site for a pioneer village that existed a LONNNNNGGG time ago with its own shops, merchants, vendors and bladidah dah dah.... :P
I was quite surprised to see how people were contemplating tasks manually as opposed to using technology which is present in our modern world today. One of my favourite places in the village was the printing press which had machines that dated about 300 years old. I was quite amazed that they had technology back then which could print copies of news papers at a rate of 10000 per day!
There were many other attractions as well, like houses with wells (I should add that I enjoyed pumping water using a water pump).
Now I am getting ready to practice for my auditions tomorrow to become a Pre SPB dancer for the Shiamak Davar dance academy. I am nervous as well as excited for my auditions tomorrow because truly I have been waiting for this for a lonnnnngg time :P
Today I learned that sometimes we take alot of things for granted. After seeing the pioneer settlements I learned that to accomplish the easiest of errands, it could take days. Even then, people would work manually and finish the tasks they had started happily. In our world today, there is an advancement in technology and luxury yet people still act selfishly and fight.
I wish there was a way to stop the conflicts which sometimes emerge from our pre-programmed mind set. I guess it's just the human trait of selfishness which is present in everyone.
Other than that, that was pretty much my day:) I do hope to write more as summer goes on, till then BYE:)
