My life is like a seesaw that’s tipped to one side permanently due to the pressure, stress and schoolwork I take home every day. Then, I realized that I am working now to have the opportunity to work even harder in a competitive college and then finally work for the rest of my life at a job that I might loathe because my parents chose it for me. It enabled me to focus on my school work 24/7, so I could get into college. Of course, when I brought this issue up with my parents, they thought that having virtually zero contact with people my age outside of school (unless they had a perfect SAT score) was good for me. While I had superficial relationships with almost everyone at my school, I missed out on forming the authentic friendships that could only be forged outside a classroom setting. I was without an order, purpose and truly out of real friends. A floater is someone without a true “group” of friends who goes from one group to the next feeling like the awkward library book someone picked up, didn’t want and randomly shoved back into the shelf. Soon, the lies started catching up to me, and I became the dreaded floater. Instead of a real explanation that would be extremely lame, to spare myself from social suicide, I created the crazy fantasy that I already had other plans - not just with my biology textbook. When my Caucasian friends asked the dreaded question, “Well, why won’t they let you?” I never knew where to start because I didn’t even know why my parents wouldn’t let me go to the movies or go ice skating.
REMIND ME WHEN I GET HOME TRIAL
I couldn’t even go to study session without an interview and a mock trial by my parents. No, I've never been inside the Bush House or met anyone who has been, but it is no doubt one of the most talked about spots in Quakertown. There, is it's prominent corner position, is the Bush house. It's very convenient (only fifteen minutes outside the borough) and accessible.įinally, we get to the center of Quakertown. Nock is a blast whether you want to bike, have a picnic, hike, or play water sports. Q-Town also plays it's hand in nature venturing and provides us with Lake Nockamixen. Yet, my dad, being the great man he is, grabbed our skates, marshmallow coats, and huge shovel and off we went. One Christmas when I was younger, Andrew and I were insanely insistent to go skating even though there were two feet of snow out. We pray it freezes and go work on our terrible turns and hockey dreams. We don't have a real rink, but every year the fire department fills up the parking lot across from the library with about a foot of water. I should suggest we have our high school reunion there. Every time I'm there, I see at the minimum six people I went to school with. When there's nothing to do, I go to Walmart. The number of times I've been to Walmart versus the number of things I've actually bought surely don't match up. Try it now…”Hey Siri, remind me at 7 tonight, create a reminder to work on something tomorrow.Last but not least, there are certain things that just make Quakertown Quakertown.įor example, WALMARTTTTTT. Tap Edit, add your work or home address, then tap Done.


To do this, open the Contacts app, then tap My Card. You can add your home and work addresses to your card in Contacts to allow Siri to help you set location-based reminders. “Remind me when I leave here to stop by the grocery store.” “Remind me when I get home to check the mail.” “Remind me to feed the dog every day at 7:30 a.m.” “Remind me when I get to the office draft letter to Anna about payment.” “Remind me at 11 am tomorrow call Bob about the Project.” Here are a few examples of things to try after saying “Hey Siri”: You can ask Siri to schedule a reminder for you using your iOS device or your Apple Watch or while wearing connected AirPods while you are doing things like taking a walk, at the gym or going somewhere. What if there was an easy way to capture and remind yourself about an idea that takes little to no effort…? There is…and it’s as simple as using your iCloud reminders with Siri but you do not even have to type anything. You have an inspiration, thought or idea you want to capture and remind yourself about later and you think…I’ll remember that, no need to write it down or enter it…and then later you think what was that thing I wanted to do or worse, you forget you even had that thought. With that in mind, to help everyone with their own New Year’s resolution to increase productivity, planning and organization, consider this tip and scenario. It is amazing at all of the features or tips that I think, no need to tell anyone that because they have to know it and later learn it is not known.
