We are now living in a world where having digital technology has become a big part of our lives. To adapt to human society in today's world, must one use digital technology?, is it possible to live comfortably without it? What is the big deal about digital technology? To what extent has digital technology changed and impacted our lives? To find the answer to these questions, I took a week off without using digital technology. This Blog is my medium of expressing my experience during this week.

Day 2, Tuesday, November, 15th, 2011
This is the second day of me going out without digital technology. It’s starting to get really difficult. I have no means of contacting my partner for our group presentation that we have to work on for seminar for Friday morning. I again woke up late this morning, on account that I didn’t have my Iphone once again to wake me up on time. I walked all the way up to glendridge to get to Brock University for my 11 Am seminar for comm. 3P65. It was a boring trip up to the school, because usually I would have my headphones plugged into my 1st generation IPod touch. It was a quiet walk up to the school other tan that it seemed like a normal day. I went to my seminar, as usual and left promptly after it was done. One thing that crossed my mind was if my parents had tried to contact me, I become worried, because really I have no other way to contact them at all. I figured I’d just catch my work partner for my seminar on Friday at Thursday morning’s class. I was done school for the day at 12 and went home. I lied down on my bed and picked up a book called Making idea’s Happen. It’s a book that my dad got for me. It’s all about what it takes to take an idea and make it a reality; I got through the first 2 chapters, in what seemed like an hour. I slept till past five. At this time it started getting dark, and I had no idea what to do with my time. I decided to go to the dollarama to pick up some good items; I walked down glenridge to the plaza, and picked up bread, and other food items etc. Since I had some extra time I decided to pop in on the computer store next store, I asked questions about the Logitech pc speakers. I was thinking of upgrading my speakers soon. I left the store after and went home. This day really felt lonely, I didn’t see that many people I knew at school today, and besides my roommates, I didn’t really get to interact with much people today. I’m starting to feel really disconnected at this point.
