Life in 2224

By: Elaine Li

Like every normal day, you wake up and a machine brushes your teeth, combs your hair and gives you your outfit for the day. You step on a platform, and it brings you to your kitchen. A robot has made your breakfast and it’s the perfect amount of what you want to eat. You step on another platform, and it whizzes you off to school. Welcome to life in 2224.


At school a tablet has all the supplies you need. The halls project your schedule in front of you, and when you walk into class it switches to what you’re learning today. After your classes you go to the cafeteria.

You sit in your assigned seat and a robot brings your food over. Your food is based on your size, what you like to eat and your allergens. At recess you race your friends on shoes that make you hover in the air.


After school your platform brings you back home. You do your homework on a tablet that unlocks the games you like to play after you’re done with your homework. Dinner is served by a robot, and you get a tasty dessert. You meet up in the park with your friends and have some fun splashing around in the water slides. When you get home and take a shower. You can control the speed and temperature of the water.

After your shower a machine brushes your teeth, dries your hair, and gives you your pajamas. It’s not bad to be living in 2224.
