Computers are definitely a significant part of my life although I often wish they weren't. I click and type so much. It drives my parents crazy. Click click click. "Would you stop clicking and listen!" they frequently say to Sarah and me, when we are on the computer. "Yes parents. I'll be off soon, Just let me finish this..." "No! Stop Justing!" Well, that is mainly said to Sawi now. I am now in grade 12 and I have to go on the computer a fair bit for checking emails and writing English essays and reading many assignments. And my parents just have to trust me now. That I don't waste my time clicking on stupid things. I am trustworthy. Mostly. For a fact I don't actually like computers that much. The only two reasons I can think of at the moment why I like them is that I can connect with people outside my house in a fast way, and read other peoples' thoughts, ideas and opinions that engulf the internet. The internet is an interesting and dangerous place, but I believe it can be used for a lot of good too. Like
www.catholic.com. I try to avoid my computer though, by writing my English notes by hand on good, real paper, getting outside, playing the piano, spending my breaks away from it... if I stare at the computer screen too long, it numbs my brain. I'm highly suspicious that computers are helping to ruin many young peoples' minds. They can be addictive. Help laziness. Be a bad distraction. Fortunately my parents were rather careful about my computer use when I was younger, because my young mind was drawn very quickly to the screen.
So, speaking of clicking, I was clicking through a number of cartoons that numerous people have posted on Facebook. Here are two to ponder, and one to laugh at (if you think it's at all funny).
True, isn't it? Here's another one which I can't exactly decide whether I agree with it completely or not at all:
And one more. I'm not even sure why I find it so funny.
