The one piece of technology that I could not survive at MSU without would have to be my laptop. I got my laptop from my parents as a graduation present. They gave it to me because they knew that I would need it for college. I use my laptop every day whether it is to do homework, listen to music, e-mail, talk to my friends, play games or anything else that I need because it pretty much has everything.

         All of my professors e-mail important things like assignments and they post things on Angel. It would be a really big hassle to have to go to the library or computer lab everytime I needed to check it. My laptop was built in wireless and since MSU has wireless internet I can go anywhere on campus and get on the internet.  I can take my laptop to class to take notes with, check my E-mail or when I’m bored go on facebook. I chose not to take it because I know I would end up on Facebook the whole time and end up not paying attention.

       Without my laptop I would not be able to keep in touch with a lot of my friends. Many of them live far away but I can still talk to them through Facebook, Myspace and AIM. I can look up people that I haven’t talked to in a long time. I think that Myspace and Facebook have gone a little overboard on all the applications which takes away from the main purpose if it.

       I like a lot of different types of music so I have a lot of songs that I have downloaded. I probably have over ten thousand songs and it still runs fast.  I also like to download movies. My laptop also has all of my pictures on it from family vacations to pictures of my friends and I. It is nice to have everything I need all in one place. I don’t know what I would do without my laptop so I am very thankful that I have one.
