If I had to live without one it would be.........


The electronic gadgets that are out today vary by size, shape, speed, type, etc. There are so many different types of technological “toys” that people own. Recently, I lost two of my “favorite toys”, my laptop and my iPod. These two items were my most prized possessions. After living without these items for some time now, I have come to realize that my iPod is an item that I can live without. Music is such a big part of my life and my iPod has kept going all through the school year. When I lost my iPod, I though I was going to literally die. I would feel weird walking to class without it, I didn’t have any music to listen to as I go to bed, and I didn’t have music to listen to when I wanted to work out. But when I really think about it, living without my iPod really is not that bad after all. There are so many substitutes for listening to music. Hanging out in the campus courtyard between classes provides me with the daily dose of music that I need. Also, there are other ways to listen to music that don’t require an iPod. I have been using my desktop a lot to listen to music. Sure it isn’t convenient as I can’t take my music with me as I leave my dorm, but it isn’t something that is imperative for me to live with. Living without a phone, laptop, or television with is much worse than living without an iPod. Although it was one of my favorite gadgets, I feel that I can live without it.
