The internet

Reading the habits of my other classmates as they spend their time on-line, I found that I didn’t put nearly as much effort into what I do on the internet as they did. However, I don’t do nearly as much on the internet. I get on the internet for mainly two things I noticed. E-mail and shopping. I need e-mail for school and am told to check in everyday so that I don’t miss anything. I really don’t like doing that but it’s not that big of a hassle so I don’t care. Now when I say shopping I mean for man stuff. Sorry ladies no clothes. I’ve been looking for motorcycles on line. I’ve been riding my dad’s ancient BMW R90S. It’s a 76’ that’s in really good shape but I’d prefer to have my own so I could ride with him and take it to school. I need a vehicle with good gas mileage to get home on weekends. So I’ve been a smart shopper and have been comparing prices using Kelly blue book and checking insurance rates on progressive cause they are the only people that will give me (18years old) an online quote without talking to someone. Unlike most of my classmates who are on the social networks a lot, I check in and leave the site most the time. It’s not really my thing and never got one until my girlfriend made me get one before I left for college so she could keep in touch. (I’m texting her as I write this.) Granted I wasn’t on the internet to much this weekend cause it was Labor Day and I was hunting, but still. I’m not on too much. I get on pogo.com occasionally for games and check sports on sites but I really am not on the internet unless I need to find out a piece on information. My social networking is through texting and actual interaction. I find out my news via the tube. The internet is awesome, but I don’t depend on it.
