    Activity 5.3 A Day Without Technology

    Technology is something we humans depend on when doing certain tasks. It makes our
    work not just faster, but better. It affects different aspects of life like the way we learn different
    things, our physical and mental health, the way we live our lives, the food we eat, how we
    travel from one place to another, and even our communication with different people in
    different parts of the world. We wouldn’t be living in a society in this present day without the
    use of technology. Being part of a generation where technology has progressed so much, we
    grew up having these. I don’t think I can live in a world without technology.

    From the moment I was born, technology was there. Growing up, I learned many things
    through watching television shows, using the computer to play games, having a mobile phone
    to communicate and play music. As a child, we didn’t have the money to have the technology
    mentioned. I just experienced it because our neighbor has one. I was a free child at that time.
    We always play outside with my friends, going to the mountains, climb up a tree and get
    mangoes, run, and walk without technology. Fast forward to my High School days, that time,
    the computer was a trend and I became attracted to playing that’s why I learned how to do it.
    That’s when I realized that technology is affecting our generation, unlike the past generations.
    At that time, I was always jealous of my classmates having a smartphone because they can
    capture images, play music, play games, chat, use SNS just by having that small device. Also,
    they didn’t have to write notes because they can just picture the topics that were on the board.
    It made their studying easier. That’s why when I got my first phone even if it isn’t a touch
    screen, I was so happy. I feel like I’m part of society now. Fast forward again to the present
    times. I’m a person who always has a phone in my hand, scrolling in different Social Networking
    Sites, watching on YouTube and Netflix, play mobile games, etc. This has been my lifestyle.
    When I’m studying, I always use my laptop because most of the time, the requirements are
    digital or encoded. There are also topics that I didn’t understand so I search the internet for
    more information. Having technology in my life is such a blessing for me. I remember when
    there is a brownout and I haven’t charged my phone, I feel like my life is so boring, I didn’t have
    anything to do. That’s when I realized I can’t live without technology.

    Of course, being so dependent on technology have its disadvantages. Growing up, I


    didn’t have the chance to enjoy exercising because I enjoy playing computer games, that is why
    since childhood, my body is so thin. I was thinking it’s because I didn’t do any sports or exercise
    in the past. Also, since I was always looking at the screen of the computer, mobile phone,
    laptop, and television, my eyesight has gone bad. My vision gets blurry when I see things from
    far. There are also times that I forget to do tasks because I was so focused on using my phone,
    my family always reprimanded me for this. But still, I will use technology because I feel good
    using it.
    Technology is a part of me. Life without it would be so boring. I don’t think I can enjoy
    life without using my phone, surf the net, have updates on SNS. Technology paved the way
    where our society stands now. Imagine a world without cars to transport you, the internet to
    show you lots of information, a washing machine to wash your clothes. Everything will be hard
    and will be a mess. We should accept the fact that modern times need modern technology. As
    we humans flourish so is our society. We shouldn’t be stagnant in life so use the technology as I
    do.
