Final Project Blog: My Dependency to Technologies

     Technology plays an important role in my life. It carries functions I need to perform my daily routines in a timely fashion without much effort and gives me entertainment throughout the day. My life would dramatically change if the technologies I own would disappear. I would need to schedule my day all over because of the time it saves me. One example of this is my alarm clock. This piece of technology allows me to have a peaceful night sleep without having to worry trying to stay half awake just to wake up at a certain time. Technology itself is changing every day and in the future will make our lives easier than what it already is.


One of the most important pieces of technology I have is my cell phone; I use it multiple times a day. My main purpose of this device is to make a simple phone call, but the alarm clock, email and calculator functions are useful as well. This is now the main way of communication in the modern era. Before this technology was available, mailing letters was the way of passing information along. Therefore, it saves me time and effort from composing a letter to get information across to the other party.  


Another important piece of modern technology in my daily life is my car. It’s astonishing how much of an impact it has on my everyday routine. I mainly use it for my commute to work and school. It allows me to get to my destination without having to take the subway, walking, or any other means of physical transportation. None of these are as feasible as using my car, as they would be physically exhausting and time wasting each day. With the time and energy my car allows me, I can perform a lot more events throughout my day.
