Afterworld

Imagine life without technology. Yep, same like on your tv show, Afterworld. Imagine, you don't have a mobile phone, living in a place without any radio coverage. A place where you have no access to the world. Will you stay there? Can you survive?

After reading cik kiah's blog, I realized I can't live without technology. But I'm not that sick to get help to overcome this. I think, life without technology is bad for your life. Honestly, I can't live without it.

When I'm in a place where any communication network coverage is unavailable, I feel alone, afraid, and cautious. When I was in a trip with my friends to a waterfall, which is far into the jungle (jungle trekking duh), the urged of connected with the world is very high. It felt like I will miss all the opportunity in this world. I want to back home early, or at least to a place where I can access my phone.

I don't know why, even after getting off the jungle and all that I got is only a message from Maxis asking begging me to buy their caller ringtones, it is enough to make me relieved. Well, that explained why I kept bringing my phone during boarding school time. I just need to get connected.

RinG just don't get along with nature.

ps/ that's why you'll see him playing with his phone, always.

Letting the time pass me by said...

When I was a little kid way back in 1970s, in my grandmother house, we have no electricity, only depend on kerosene lamp and no tap water but depending on rain water.

Life is pretty simple, no cooking gas, just using the natural wood for cooking....

The toilet is also far from the house and when you want to go to the toilet at night, you need to arm yourself with a kerosene lamp or "jamung" ..

Hmm... that would be nice...

rain water? i'm sorry if i'm rude but, what happen if there is no rain for days? where did you get the water? i don't know if i'm lucky or not to not experiencing this, but trust me, my grandma house too, once the toilet is at outside. quite chuak though

everytime i comlained,my mother will says that org dulu2 hidup lagi susah and kids nowadays are spoilt by the 'easy' way of life.

i believe she's got her point there but i simply think if there is easier way,why bother to trouble so much? hee ;))

i'm appreciating the tech. ;))

to silence,

huhu, ada jgk yg persan yek..

to izzahismail,

yeap, why bother anyway? actually, our life is tough too, but in other way, for example how to co-op with technology. haha, sounds silly.

I know how you feel bro!! I panic if I left my phone at home and can't have access to internet! I don't know how I survived it when I was younger, since I didn't actually have cell phone until I started uni... and getting letters as in real physical letters are so exciting! but you don't get letters anymore.. It's rather unfortunate really. Yes I guess we are way too dependent on Technology. but One thing that I can't live without is Microwave!! I LOVE microwave! I hate eating cold food :P

yuhu cik kiah's blog?haha
to be honest la kan, sape je yg bley hidup tanpa tech. seriusly kalo u pegi mane2 mall pun, bdk2 pakai uniform sekolah rendah pun tgh pegang hp. (even i dun really understand why they think they need one)

apa2 pun.gunakan lah teknologi yg kita ada sekarang ni sebaik mungkin.

p/s: org salu ngn hp ni sbb die ade awek ar haha

technology..what should i say?
I'd DIE without tech.seriously.*especially on downloading free mp3 songs*

CONNIE said...

"techno"
a word used to refer to the hp so that teachers n prefect did not noe that u have one.

RinG said...

to mie,

yes, everything is about technology. technology is as important compared to food!

to shotliver,

yes! can you feel it too? like you're leaving your soul when you actually left your phone nowhere? microwave is another thing, the most valueable technology built after phone! haha.

to cik kiah,

yeap, xde sape yg nk hidop tanpa teknologi. even going to mall too is about getting high with technology. the music, the cool air, the smell of waffle, well, teknologi la tuu..

to ariana,

yes, that's good about technology, no technology, no fun! we'll die of boring.

RinG said...

to me.connie.me,

that's why school can't stop student bringing hp to school because technology and life can't be seperate. what our education policy have is not correct and outlaw. they deny human rights using technology.
