"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Hey guys I'm applying for a scholarship and one of the questions is
" As information technology conitnues to develop at an incredible rate what pracitical applications for business and technology do you foresee in our society?"

The thing is I'm not really sure what is being asked so I'm not sure how to answer this. How would you interpret this?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Suggestion: Use technology to search for the viewpoints of a person who who has a major influence on technology. You should figure this out on your own since you would like to receive money for your insight on things like this.

I wasn't trying to get an easy answer here. I just wrote 4 other essays for the same scholarship. I don't mind thinking on my own, but im drawing a blank as to what the question is actually asking. I should probably just take a break and look at it later with fresh eyes.
