Personal Experience: Josephina Im: I worked on this project on a iPad and a laptop. I watch videos on my computer, and cook with the stove. Everyday, I call and text with my phone. I play piano (It is an electric piano.) I open the fridge door, and the light turns on in the fridge. I turn on the lights everywhere I go. I play on a smartphone. Electricity is everywhere, so it is hard to go on your daily life without it.

Hannah: I use my iPhone, laptop, desktop and iPad for this project. I use a blender to make smoothies every morning, use the microwave to heat things up and use the stove to cook.

Natasha Tasneem: I worked on this project with a lot of electricity. I used a iPad and a laptop even. I call everyday with my house phone to chat with my friends. Everyday when I wake up my mom uses the stove and the microwave to make us breakfast and our lunches. I'm sure we all use our cars almost everyday to either drive to school or go to other places.
