Can you survive a day or two without having an internet ? Guess me , like it is so hard , for it seems it becomes part of my life , and i learn to love every bit of it . Internet is like best friend to me , i can tell anything about life , events ,places and people , no complains made. How about you Lotters , is it just okay for you to have no internet for one day or more.

Having and depending on the internet means we can never be allow not to have it even for a second , this is how important it is in our everyday task and routines.

I've had to go weeks in the past without Internet. Mainly because of computer problems. However, that was when I used the Internet mainly for entertainment purposes. These days, I use it mainly for money making opportunities. I could definitely survive a day or even more without Internet. However, it would definitely be something I wouldn't want to have to do intentionally.

If I am at home, I would be lost, but could do without. In fact, I would probably get somethings done that have needed done for a while.

Yes we might still can do our routines but we would still feel that vacuum inside , as if something is lacking and needs to be fill in. Your internet might be not a necessity to you , not like the way i needed it .! Have a smiling day ahead !

I know what you mean mate, It's not easy to stay without internet. I've to say I'm very addicted to the activities I do online. I stay several hours each days. I think I can survive without internet, when I'm in holiday I want to "disconnect" and I try to stay away from internet. I can resist a couple of days, but after I've to check my mails because I don't I think I miss important online messages

I have done it before when there was no way to connect and I had no choice, but it is not pleasant. Everytime there is a power outage I lose my internet connection and it is very frustrating. We are expecting a big outage soon because of a hurricane passing through and I am already anticipating being bored and annoyed.

So very true , internet plays already a big role in our life nowadays but we can deny it what beautiful things it gives to us.

Even this is a part of life I can survive without net till 1 week or 1 months also because every work is important for me. Internet work, house work, business work so no problem if one leave for others for some days. Depend upon situation if no net recharge then no use internet.

Your so lucky , you are not that attached to the internet world , and i guess your internet is not significant in your daily routine. Good Day !

I think it's okay, but it would be hard to get some of my work done. I think I would eventually get used to it.

Yes , it is but hard for something to have it done without an internet , because internet helps us , accomplish task earlier and fast.It is so time consuming. Hope you wil agree with me ?

I do go without Internet at times for some days. However, I sometimes do feel like surfing the Internet on those days also. I do like to surf for some of the sites and Mylotting as well.

Good day Angelpink, With regard to your post, ask for me here, honestly it is quite uncomfortable. especially if you are used to a life with an internet on your side. and if you are an online marketer, then, internet is really a part of your everyday necessity. so if you cannot have it within a day or two, then it will be uneasy to do online task.

You have said it perfectly , that's one of the reason why i am so hooked to the internet , it a part of my daily task. If net is out , life and schedule will mess up..

You can be productive as well as you can make this your past time.

Yes i could do that if I had to, it is just something to look at as something to get away from awhile. If I have an important business transaction to take care of though it would have to take priority though.

I can go awhile without internet, I've had to go around 3 months without. I didn't wither and die but sometimes it was really hard! I dislike it but I didn't whine about it. So yes I can do this.

I spend a lot of hours online and personally, when I go on vacation I take a break. Actually, I prefer to have as little contact as possible with technology during my vacation time.

The advent of the internet brought great things. I'm always updated with the news even if I have no television, I get to talk to and catch up with my my friends, and I get to work on my online jobs. However, there are times when I needed to get away for some badly needed "me-time". While I love having an internet connection and enjoying all its perks, I can still live without going online for a few days.

I admire your way of balancing things out , that is a must for everyone and for me , but usually i got less time for personal things than in my internet hours. I will try to learn from you ..

If I was to have to go through even a day of my life without access to the internet, that would be something that I would not be happy about at all. However, I do believe that it would be something that I would be able to do. For me, I depend on the internet so that I am able to make money and if I was to lose my access for a period of time, that would be a thing that would not be good for me at all, but I would honestly be able to make it through.

i just do internet when i'm free of my daily activities, routines here at home and actually its only lately that I've been sort of addicted to it. Since as a mother, this is not my priority, then i could survive without internet for a couple of days but i will miss it.

Yes , it depends on the nature of work of an individual but if i find happiness , relaxation and a vent in net , surely you will miss it ! Good day !

For me, I was not using internet for about three to four days when my internet connect was during the downtime. Of course, I felt very uncomfortable during the first day because going online had become my habit in the past. After I managed to engage or busy with other offline works, then I found myself better to live without internet. In fact, I started to realize that I ignored or missed many offline works after I had the habit to go online daily. Now, I shall keep in mind to allocate my time well to go online and to manage certain offline works.

First of all,congratulations for your debut century in Mylot. Now that I have learnt how to work on computer,it would be indeed very difficult to live without internet even for a day,but I am confident I would manage.Internet has fast turning into my addiction too,but being a book lover from my childhood,it would not be impossible for me to spend my days happily without internet.I am also interested in writing.So I can make a constructive use of my time.I am confident,I can survive without internet.My collection of books and the flair for writing that I have would prove sufficient to make up for the lack of internet.

So good of you , you can survive without internet because books are there , values more than the internet , that is so impressive !! Wish younger generation would have this value and wish they could love books more than the internet .

I'm used to having no internet for a day or two because my grandparents house have no internet access at all. There are even days where i don't use the internet for weeks. It is kind of hard to be away from the virtual world but sometimes it can be rewarding.

Yes , it is rewarding maybe in the aspect of health but what about if you are catching a deadline for submission of a write up ? You will be left out. Actually internet depends on the work of an individual. Have a smiling day !
