The World of Mama Bear

As we move forward toward the technological world, there are numerous inventions that shaped our world. With easier communication, accessible information, entertainment, and online learning, technology has improved the quality of life for people around the world. With that being said, I would like to share my experiences with technological advancements that shaped me through the years.

One of the significant technology that shaped my life is my cellphone. I had my first cellphone when I was in junior high school. It is convenient for me to use a cellphone, especially for personal and educational purposes. I could communicate with my family and friends, whenever I am in a farther place to tell stories about my trip or my problems in life. With the help of my cellphone, I could strengthen my relationship with others and connect myself to the digital world.

Next is my laptop. Considering that we are in remote learning and facing different challenges during the pandemic, the laptop became my sidekick throughout my pandemic life. It was very unusual for me to have my own laptop because I never had one even during the pre-pandemic. However, as we are adapting to the new learning environment, having your own laptop has become a necessity specifically for academic purposes. I use my laptop for doing my schoolwork and collaborating with my classmates for any group work activities. Moreover, using the laptop has helped me in accomplishing my tasks and improving my school performance.

Other things that shaped my world are my earphones and camera. As a music lover, I cannot live without my earphones. Music became my safe place in expressing my emotions and thoughts about the world.  As well for my camera, I love capturing every moment because I could reminisce whenever I see the pictures. 

In this remote learning environment, it is a challenge for me to keep up with the current events because of the pressure and expectations happening around me. There are unexpected breakdowns and sleepless nights that triggered my anxiety. However, I was able to cope because of my supportive parents and friends who are always there for me.  And with the help of technology, I feel more alive and relieved because it helped me discover more about myself due to unexpected events and realizations. With that, I am more comfortable and ready to seize my moment to the fullest.
