Emailism… (a word of my creation!)

Hello, my name is Rai, and I am an Emailaholic.

I just had to post about this, because it did not hit me until today. I am addicted to checking my email. It does not matter where I am or what I am doing, I find time to periodically check my email messages. If I am away from a computer for too long, I start to freak out. When I reply to someone I check a million times (unless I am truly busy) to see if they responded. Sometimes I just sort through old emails. I dunno… visitors… I dunno!

Isn’t that weird?

Technology… is consuming my life nowadays. I can recall when I was younger (before the Internet) and I was forced to hand write letters to friends and wait for an opportune moment for them to intercept the letter (which could take all school day). The only other option I had as a kid (for most of my adolescence) was the telephone. Now between emailing and text messaging no one really ever has to physically see each other or verbally communicate to convey a thought.

Heck, due to this blog most of you know more about me than people that see me every day and a lot of you have no idea who I truly am. This is definitely something!

The point of this post is to explore the true reason why we are so technology crazed… and most importantly… why I can’t go two seconds with out checking my email.

I will never truly understand why… time will tell!

The End.
