I wonder how different I'd be if I never actually used the internet as a method of communication with people I'll likely never meet face-to-face.
OMG the Internet has been such a big part of my world, so I'm sure I'd be different without it. I've had amazing Internet discussions, I've discovered I'm not alone in so many ways, I've made some close friends, and there are times in my life when chatting online made my life a thousand times better. I could go on.
I feel the same way. When I was living with my mom, once she took my Internet time away (we shared a computer) She told me I was spending toooo much time on the internet, I was crying, cuz she didn’t understand. I was sooo excited when I got my first computer (it was a Mac PC) it was 2001, my computer wasn’t set up, my mom was on vacation with her boyfriend, I hooked up my computer myself, I really freak out when my computer was talking.
