Adding to a routine

Once you live your life you’ll find a certain pattern to it. This phenomenon is called a “routine”. Routine has become part of our lives and yet some of us, we strive not to have the same. Anyway, a continuation of my routine that has become part of my life. And this is so, right after my brushing of teeth. So I put on my working clothes. Depends on situation, I normally do not wear a tie but I bring one just in case. A black tie that should match with my pants that I wear since most of my pants is black. Going to the car, I would start my car first to heat up the old clunker. Then I pull the plug of my internet, ADSL, connection off my modem which I use to download my stuff overnight. Then I put on my shoes, by now my car is pretty much warmed up, then I would start to drive.

Tuning to my favourite radio station and listening to the latest world gossip (aka the news) and the "discussion" topic. The radio has also been part of our lives ever since it went public and people can afford it. I think it would be a thing to use and a part of our lives for sometime. One of the oldest form of mass communication technology use till today since late 1800s and Guglielmo Marconi (said to be the inventor as oppose to Nikola Tesla) probably did not expect to have radio the size of a device which can be just double the size of an AAA sized battery.




Wondering of pasts entertainment, I remembered someone use to tell me that to have a radio in the house was the best thing ever invented. Now probably the best invention for family entertainment is television. Wireless communication for the whole family from one station. As telecommunication geeks would call it simplex communication method. Radio has become THE thing of communication AND entertainment at the same time. Television has yet to come to that stage. Until then, radio seems to be the best and still standing strong. Anyway, it has become part of our lives that for some of us, can't live without it, consciously or unconsciously. Going into our car, turning on the radio. Going on-line, turning on the on-line radio. So many different invention variations came from radio too, such as iPod. Things have changed the past 100 years of its invention but much of it remains. I, for one, would like to know how long will this invention would last. Probably forever, same stuff, different form. Same or similar ingredients different taste. Inventions has become part of our lives and becomes a routine part of our lives, wondering if people notices it. As the younger generation would be surprise to know "how do you guys entertain yourself without MTV?". The answer? We have our own entertainments, to most of us, much better than your time. Adios.
