I’m planning to purchase a computer for my good self, preferably a laptop. There is only one problem. Not a cash one. The problem is that I’ve never exactly seen eye to eye with technology and technical stuff. I prefer things to be read or written after a great deal of thinking. It’s much easier that way. To tell the truth, I had a hard time with the blogging part of Journalism. One of the reasons why I joined the Humanities faculty was that I expected it to be free from the technical hassles of technology, unlike faculties like pharmacy and other such funny departments. But blogging has proved me wrong. I had to learn how to take pictures, to upload stuff, to create photo comics and other things which I had hoped to avoid in life. I’ve realised there’s no escaping technology. One just has to keep up with the times. Right now, I use my cell phone for making and receiving calls only. But I read from the manual that it has various other functions which I didn’t bother to explore. If I buy a computer, I’ll have to come to grips with technology and technical stuff. Oh, well, they say life is all about making sacrifices don’t they?
