Greetings!
Thinking about how long I can stay without my phone and computer is already giving the headache and this is because, ever since the advent of technology that brought about the use of phones and computers, I have always been with my phones and computers, the only time I'm without these two devices is when I'm asleep.
Having said much about my relationship with my phone and computer, I would like to delve into the topic of the prompt before me this evening which is all about, “Just you.”
If it were to be in the past before this topic was raised for discussion, I would say that I would not be able to stay without my phone for even a second, but something happened to me months ago when my phone and system were stolen from me, even with my little savings which was also transferred from my bank App.
Back then, it was a hard time for me, as I was so used to my gadgets, most especially my phone and my computer. It's a terrible situation for me to behold, but there was nothing I could do as I have to adapt with the situation. Although, I would have loved to buy another phone that same day, but what I could have used to buy the phone was not available.
Also, I tried to borrow money from friends, but all they were telling me was that they had nothing on them. It was a terrible day for me as I was unable to make use of my devices that day. Although ab initio, I would not believe that I would survive the days ahead, but since there was no easy buy as we have it now, I have to live by what happened to me for several months before I could get a new phone.
Although, it's not that I don't use people's phones to call, send messages, or even browse to check things online, but one thing that I want us to know is that one's friend's phone cannot be like one's phone at all.
It's really a difficult situation for me back then, however, it was this incident that made me realize that it's possible for me to stay without my gadgets, both my phone and computer. I wouldn't know that this can be possible if not for the fact that it happened to me.
Now that I'm back to using phones and computers, one thing that I have recently realised is that I'm not that clinged to my phone and other gadgets again like before and this can be ascribed to the fact that I was away from using phones for quite a number of months.
In conclusion, I think I can do without phone and computer for as long as it's not available, but if it's available I will definitely make use of it and enjoy myself.
