It’s all about the laptop!

Daniela Lopes9ºB

I’m totally surrounded by technology. There are a lot of electronic devices in my daily life, that I consider impossible to live without. I’m just not used to life with no technology, but if I had to choose only one of these devices I would choose my computer.

What do I use it for? I use it every day, and I can do almost everything with it! I talk to my friends, do research, listen to music, download movies and series, share opinions and meet people from other countries.I have the world in front of me.

Does the computer have any disadvantages? The truth is that using this device has some disadvantages like spending less time with our family, it can be dangerous when talking to people we don’t know, isolates us from others and it takes our time from other activities (homework, reading, studying...).

What about the advantages?

On the other hand, if we are careful and responsible we can fully enjoy its advantages, like the easier access to information, talking to people that aren’t with us at the moment, it’s portable and it entertains us when we

don’t have anything else to do.

What’s my overall opinion on the computer?

I love my computer and I think that without it I wouldn’t be capable to do some of the things I use it for, but I want to make a change. One of the things I want to do, even more after finishing this work, is stop being so dependent of my laptop. Being able to spend a day without checking my facebook account and doing less research with internet. Even though I think we are overusing technology, I’m totally for the computer use. And after all, we are the technological generation!

There’s a community called “Think you know” that helps teens being informed abou internet dangers. Report if you suspect of something strange.
