End

At the first mention of this assingment, I heard a few people in class expressing how hard it was going to be for them, and showing their obvious distress about the whole situation. But personally I wasnt to worried about it. I grew up without alot of the communicating technologys, My house didnt have a t.v. or electricity at times, I had never even used a computer until maybe the end of middle school, or close to the beginning of high school, my house didnt have a computer until I was well into my teens, and I remember never having a cell phone when all of my other classmates did, so i didnt assume not having these things would be a big issue for myself.So personally the things that I cut out were television, radio, myspace,facebook, and talkin on the television. It was just a difficult situation because on this day i was flying back to Tampa from Miami, so I needed some forms of communiction to contact a ride and such.But even though I thought this assignment wouldnt have than much of an impact on my life, it really did. I realized that when I was younger I didnt care about a lot of those things because I was pre occupied with other things, such as playing, or learning things that didnt necessarily require me to use such technologys. But now, my life is basically runs off these things. I felt as If I didnt know what was going on in the world, whether it was global news, or just news between me and my friends and family. I felt isolated from the rest of the world basically. I also saw myself with a lot more free time that I didnt know what to do with, I found myself doing a whole bunch of nothing, just wandering around complaining about how I wasnt allowed to text, or go on myspace. Which I realize takes up alot of the time.I see the world differently now because I see how our world and generation really is based upon technology now, and people would probably be damn near crippled without it. It would cause total chaos, and thats not even an exaggeration.But overall it was a good experience and oped my eyes to a lot.
