A week without a computer
My computer had to be taken to be repaired. I was going to be without it for a whole week. I knew that this would change my daily routine. My computer has an important role in my life, as I'm using it for entertainment, work, education and communication. Now I will have to look for another way to do all those things. But in the same time, I was happy that I was going to live a normal, old fashioned life, like my parents did, without that machine which makes people addicted to it.
For one thing , my studying habit has changed. Every time I study Math, I use my computer to look for the solution to the problem on the Internet, or use a computer program to check my answer. But now, I had to get together with my friends, and study with them, so that I could have some other place to compare the solutions.
Whenever I got tired from studying, I would sit in front of the computer, visit a web-site dedicated to fun and entertainment, then watch a movie. Because I didn't have a computer, I needed something that would help me relax, so I invited all of my friends to come over to my place, and play some board games . After that, we all went to the cinema. We were shouting funny comments about the actors all the time. If I watched the movie alone on my computer, i wouldn't have had company and fun like this. After the movie ended , we decided to continue our partying on a concert. I've forgotten how much enjoyable it was to hear live music, while dancing together with my friends. It's so much different from listening to the music with headphones while sitting.
A friend of mine informed me that the Chemistry results from the exam have been emailed to each student.In order to see my results, I had to go to the university, which is located on the other side of town. It took me a long time to get to the bus station, I had to wait out in the open for the bus to arrive while it was snowing, then a half hour drive to the university, and I had to look all over the faculty to find where the results are. All of that could've been done in just  one minute in my cosy apartment, with the help of a computer. As a result, I've leant how valuable is the computer to me.
Every day in that week passed almost the same. When I got my computer back, I was so glad  I didn't have it, because I gained  new experiences,  I've learnt how past generations lived. Before that, I was just taking it for granted, I didn't appreciate what I had until I lost it. I realized how much I need it. Even though the computer is capable of many things, it can not offer you everything. It can't give you the happiness that friendship can.
