iOS 6 is Out!

iOS 6 has been recently released and I am excited to see the new features! I am going to wait before I download it onto my Apple products because I have heard that Maps isn't turning out real good. But I've also heard that Siri's capabilities has improved. Now you can make a dinner reservation by just asking Siri!

Apple has created a new app called passbook that comes with iOS 6. Apparently,
Passbook was made so you can store all your coupons, passes, and cards right on your device.

I hope you enjoyed reading,

Apple's Newest Products


On September 12th this year, Apple introduced its most recent iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPod Nano.
The iPhone 5, is approximately 18% thinner than the previous version and has 4G LTE. The screen is larger than the iPhone 4 and has iOS 6.

The 5th iPod Touch comes in multiple colors: red, yellowish green, black, white and salmon pink. Also with iOS 6 and Siri, Apple extended its screen as well. The new iPod Touch has an A5 chip and a Retina Display just like the 4th generation.

If you purchase a red product (Any product, even a case) from Apple, a percentage from their profits donate to Africa to fight AIDS.

I hope you enjoyed reading this post, if you need more information or would like to see the keynote, visit apple.com.

Very recently, Neil Armstrong died at age 82 in Cincinnati, Ohio because of blocked arteries.

Neil Armstrong--1969
He was an American astronaut, aerospace engineer, test pilot, and a United States Navy officer, where he took part in the Korean war. He was the first person to set foot on the moon with Aldrin being the second. His mission with Buzz Aldrin in 1969, known as Apollo 11 was a success.

Later, he was granted the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Richard Nixon, Congressional Space Medal of Honor by Jimmy Carter, and in 2009, the Congressional Gold Medal.

"This is one small step for a man, one giant leap for man kind." ~Neil Armstrong

Different Teachers, Friends, SCHOOL!

This semester, everything for me has changed because of my new school. I have new teachers, new friends and faces (Although some faces are familiar), and a new layout. I'm used to a one floor school but my new school has two! My classes are on both floors so I have to get to each class on time in a matter of four minutes. I'm also going to play volleyball for my school team, Vikings and going to join different clubs!

I still miss my old friends, though! :-)
