What Does this Mean?

I will be taking opinionated editorials from newspapers, major and local, and analyzing them from the viewpoint of a 19 year old female college student, which will come easily to me seeing as how I fit into that category. Like most wannabe scholars of today, I work my a** off to get a decent education while simultaneously laboring the days away for a hopefully decent paycheck, and I worry about more than just what outfit I'll be wearing to class today(Although that ranks high on my list). I have opinions on, well....everything, and I have a need to express aforementioned opinions. Enjoy! :]

I find it interesting that people take such offence to accessing the internet while driving, especially in modern times where our cells phones are becoming an extension of ourselves.  I agree that it is an issue though, the introduction of cell phones to society has lead to a lack in safety on the roads.  Distracted driving, no matter what you are doing, is dangerous to everyone around you.
