I think I've answered a question similar to this before, and I don't see why thats such a chore to give up those things. I only go on the internet because its there, if it wasn't there I'd be ok without it (and would possibly get more done!!). I would miss some of the regular programmes I watch on tv, but again it wouldn't be that bad. I normally just watch comedy and factual programmes anyway, no soaps or anything like that. I would however probably miss my phone - but thats because I use it to keep in touch with my sister and my best friends who I don't see much, so I regularly text them and send them little interesting or funny things. But then if I wasn't going on the internet and watching tv, I would write more letters, and so would probably write to them. Which is better really! I recently read a book about some people who lived in the 17th century and communicated their love for each other through letters for some years before they got married, and it showed how they depended on each others letters to keep their love going through those years. I sometimes wish things could go back to like that, as I love getting and writting letters, but I never seem to get round to it!
Actually thinking about this question has reminded me that I really should not go on the internet tonight - I really have to get my essay done! I didn't do as much over the weekend as I hoped to do, but I know what I want to write it and have a good plan, so I should be able to get it done relatively quickly.
And I'm still so behind on my book and event reviews etc. I was doing so well as well!
oh, and everyone should go and see Harry Potter. Right now! Its so great, the tension is so high all the way through the film. Its almost like a horror film at some points with the way you're just waiting for something to happen. Its great!
