 Project 3 : Tech is a civilization.

 The world that a phone changes to a clock. I overslept because the alarm did not ring. Fortunately, I did not have any classes at that time. After wake up, I’m going to have breakfast. Before sleeping, I decided to eat sushi for tomorrow's first meal, but I can’t use delivery app and also I did not know the phone number of a sushi restaurant. So I gave up eating sushi and just eat some simple yogurt and cereal. 
I try to study after eating, but I can’t do anything related to school because nowadays, the school only has online classes. And I use my Ipad for note-taking not printing on paper. So I just study English word what I printed before. I can also study with books. And I wanted to read. I enjoy reading an e-book that has to use the internet. So I could not read an e-book and just find some interesting paper books. There are no interesting books in my house, and I had no idea what to do today without any technology and I decided to go to a library. I had to ride a subway that was invented in 1863 in London, England. That time not the subway and a steam train. So I could ride this. I always use a map application when I go everywhere. But I could not use this app and I spent lots of time finding a route map on the wall. Also, I could not find the way smoothly. When I ride a subway, I listen to music or use my phone. But during in subway, I just watch the sight and sit down with anything. After arriving at the library I read books and decided to go to a restaurant. If I can use the internet, I would find the best place in a library. But I just walk around to find some looking nice place and enter there without knowing any reviews. My house uses an induction that was invented in the 21st century. So I can’t cook anything without this. Because it means I can’t use the fire. If my house uses a gas stove, I can cook any food. Even though the fire was invented before many millennia years, if there is no proper technology that can use it, it is meaningless. And coffeepot is invented in 1921, so I could not boiling something too. 
When I came back to my house, as if addict to the phone, the time without a phone is too bored. I don’t know what to do without a phone because I use my phone when I’m studying, playing, and even before sleeping. And I want to listen to music but without a phone, it is impossible. I have a radio but I can’t listen to songs that I want on the radio. And I have my favorite radio program, But it is only broad on youtube or mobile applications, not radio. And I think not only my favorite program but other radios broad at online contents. I'm going to cleaning my room. For the perfect ending, I want to use a vacuum cleaner but it is invented in 1908. So I just finished cleaning without eliminating dust. I start to think about what can I do right now. The answer is playing instruments. I have a flute and a piano. So I played these for an hour. And I lose interest. Time to sleep but it is awkward that I didn’t watch youtube before sleeping. And the next morning when I saw my phone, there are so many contacts on my phone.


 I can live without something not related to my life closely like TV. I do not watch a tv quite a long time. And other else, anything can make me live without technology. There are two types that I can’t live. One is the thing that cannot live without and the other is the thing that can live with uncomfortable. The former is induction. I can’t cook without it. It can help us handle fire. And the latter is the internet. I can live without it but it is too uncomfortable to live. The internet already dominates the whole life of the college.  


 Technology is culture and civilization. Korean farmed in the 19th century. If the future person gives the latest Mac-book pro to them, it would be a useless one. How about the 21st century? Almost everyone hard to reject it. So as far as living in the 21st century, it is impossible to live without civilization. I live with a smartphone for over 10 years, and during that time I use it every day. It becomes my life. Technology helps me with everything, every day. Technology helps human life quality growing up. But humans must be careful of technology’s thoughtless abuse.
