The Year 2041


It is the year 2041 and I am a first year college student at the University of Florida. I wake up and get out of bed not by alarm clock, but by a new invention called the Vibra-Bed. Instead of an annoying alarm clock that only beeps, I set a time for the Vibra-Bed to go off and at that particular time it starts to vibrate and wakes me up. I then go into the bathroom and take a shower and instead of having to turn a pipe or faucet on, the shower turns on when it feels that I am under it, kind of like how automatic toilets and sinks are now. After my shower I clean my teeth, but not with a toothbrush as you would assume. People don’t use toothbrushes anymore; they use gum that you chew for 10 minutes and it cleans your entire mouth. After I’m done cleaning my teeth, I go to my new touch screen closet that only recognizes my fingerprint. I put on what I want to wear that day and I get ready to start my day. Instead of a shuttle that takes students to class, every student is given a teleportation device that works throughout the whole campus. With this new teleportation device, students just turn it on and select which building they want to go to and the device immediately teleports he or she to their class. This saves time and money. I get to my first class and might I add, teachers aren’t in classes anymore. Teachers hold classes through a new revamped version of skype that allows them to teach an entire class at an astounding 1670p High Definition quality. It is as if they are right in front of you. After class I teleport back to my room and go straight to sleep.
