Life without a Feed - Blog #5

To live life without the Feed, is a little different, I can't connect with people through the m-chat, so I don't know whether or not they are talking about me.  It is a little hard to get used to, but I am managing.  I like not getting those pop up commercials or advertisement type things.  I am saving money without using the feed.  I feel free to make my own choices and think for myself.  It seems that all the people around me with feeds, talk within themselves, they seem too caught up in it, they forget about the world outside.  Life is easier, if other people talk about me through their chats, well let them, I am smarter and a better person.  I enjoy life, speak up for myself, express my opinions in person and I know how to read and write.  I am homeschooled and learn a lot about the world and history.  Most kids my age, proabably don't care or know nothing of the world.   

I find the feed, useful but at the same time, a waste of life.  I don't know, I like experiencing life, nature and thinking for myself.  I like not being caught up in m-chatting.  It seems, every person who has one, focuses on just that, and just use that to talk to people.  They don't like confronting people in person if they have a problem to talk about.  They are too caught up in the Feed.

  1. So true. It seems like if you had a feed you wouldn't be so dependent on it. You get to enjoy life and get to actually know people.

  2. It's kind of funny to think about but the way we live now is similar to the way you described people in your blog. For example my buddy just broke up with his girlfriend through a text message because he didnt want her to yell at him

  3. I really think that texting (and in this case, m-chatting) really creates gaps in our social lives. It kills our ability to think on the spot, be fluid in what we're trying to say, and also hides our true selves. It's easier to say something risky over a text rather than to someone's face. Even now we use texting to avoid conversations that involve high emotions.

  4. "I find the feed, useful but at the same time, a waste of life"
    this quote is very true, same as everything else electronic.

  5. I really enjoyed your perspective of Violet and felt your interpretation of her was spot on! I enjoy many of the points you made here.
