Senior Prom!

Hey Everyone!
Well, nothing much going on here... just ready for the last few weeks of school to be over. I believe there are about 16 more days left for Seniors! YAY! :D

We had our Prom last weekend - it was a lot of fun!! I went with my brother and a group of friends which was pretty cool. We had dinner at a Japanese Habatchi (sp?) Steakhouse, that was neat seeing the chef cook the meal in front of us as he entertained us with his skills. Then we went to Prom - we were basically out on the dance floor the whole entire time just dancing and having a great time. During Prom they had the Senior Walk, so all the seniors walked down these stairs and out onto the red carpet and did the Senior Dance. That was pretty neat... especially since I've waited 4 years for that! :) Then after prom my friends and I went bowling in our formals and had an after party at my house. So we just hung out, played games, and watched movies all night long.

So here a few pictures to enjoy from my Senior Prom:

So yeah, that was definitely a night to remember! :)

You know, recently someone messaged me about the implant and how he couldn't decide on whether to get the implant now or wait another 5 or 10 years until they come out with something even better.

But honestly, it really annoys me when people think like that... sure, there will be many advances in technology in the future. But when it comes to hearing the world - why wait? I can't imagine all the things I'd be missing out on over the next 5 years just waiting for better technology to come out.

Besides, Advanced Bionics is inventing better technology and coming out with newer upgrades BUT they are keeping the internal piece the same so people can upgrade their implants for the newer style. Like with me, I was implanted the Auria. But becuase they invented the new processor (keeping the internal piece the same) I was able to upgrade to the new Harmony.

So why miss out on all the things you could be hearing now just to see if there will be something better coming out in the future. I rather live for today then to just sit around and miss out...
