Too Much Tech

I am scared to death the kind of world which I will be placed in about ten years later.

Ten years backwards, when the computer replaced the squared manuscript papers I used to use for practicing a writing,  which was the convenience and fastness I began to rely on, it wasn't like this. It wasn't this crazy. It wasn't a main model in our lives stage.

Now what? The computer is indeed, dominating and enhancing our lives significantly, covering all wide and deep spectrum from A to Z and 1 to 100 of our lives. Think: What activities you do don't involve using a computer? Maybe hanging out? Eating?

When the internet first emerged into my world, I was completely immersed into the sea of information, like the way everyone else did. Without visiting other places or countries in reality, the sea of knowledge brought me here and there, pleasing my eyes, ears and even soul. It was exotic.
I liked it and I consented to everything that has to do with the internet.

Boy, not anymore.

If the using of computer was my want before, now, this is a mandatory and obligatory thing.

Whenever I don't want to, I don't feel like using a computer, I need to. I have to.
Registering for classes, selling back your textbooks, applying for jobs, doing research on certain jobs or on your interests,
oh and hey, even reaching out for your friends, like facebook and twitter (though, I'm not a part of those)

Information you need is in here! There's no better way to get it. So now what? Use it!

Uhhhh.. This is sick.
For several days, I've been feeling like I'm married to the computer.
Not only the world, but I myself felt like I was about to turn out like a robot or something.

Computers make things accessible, possible,
but at the same time, computers are making people go against.

The more I use computer, I become muted, not sensational, not personal..
I even feel like my life can keep moving on with just a computer.
What else could I be needing? 
'I don't think so', and this answer is a seriously serious problem those who live in this century face.
