Welcome to Kirangsan

Kirangsan reflects the thoughts and comments of the one and only Angela Sanchez. This page full fills the final project requirement for the BEHS 210 course through the University of Maryland and also gives you an insight on what I think about certain topics!
Since the beginning of my college career I have been on the path towards a major in Marketing, and only recently have I decided to get into the Social Science field. I think what influenced my decision the most was the fact that I am continuously intrigued by people. I'm the kind of person who asks too many questions and always wants to know more, more, MORE!! Social Science has kept my interests going since day one and I couldn't have picked a better field to be a part of!

"Never offend people with style when you can offend them with substance"
-Sam Brown

This is my all time favorite quote because it encourages one to forget the material things in life and focus on something you can never lose...KNOWLEDGE

Technology and Society

Technology is a part of our everyday society and it has been for quite sometime. Whether we recognize it or not it has become an omnipresent fixture in our lives. Especially now a days. From the days of the industrial revolution to the domination of social networking sites, technology has some part in it.





Above is one of many pictures taken during the Industrial Revolution depicting child labor. Children worked long hours in factories for unfair wages and in dangerous conditions. Factories had emerged as a new way of making a product and transformed the way people (of all ages) went to work.


 This commercial has been out for some time but was the first thought that came to find when  I thought about mass production, globalization and product expansion. The line runs so smoothly until someone decides to use a different form of technology. Its amazing to think how far we've come when even cash isn't a desired method of payment.

Social networks are an ever evolving experience that connect people to their past and present. No longer to we mail letters, or make phone calls to keep in contact with each other. We access our Twitters, Facebooks, and Myspaces and post or thoughts and feelings so we can reach everyone at once. Below is the link to my Facebook where I can share the most important milestones in my life.
