Hi Margarit, I spend most of my leisure time surfing net like watching news, listening music, chatting with my son and friends, mylotting and ... Definitely I would feel depressed and dull if the internet connection broke down. Other than watching tv I would probably play computer games. I have uploaded some interesting and simple games in my computer, so I could pass my monotonous time by playing these games. Though it is simple, it's quite challenging and I always don't feel tired and would keep on playing it again and again posting and have a nice day.

Same here, If there is no internet connection i would feel sad. Because all of my friend are outside the country working. Through enternet chatting is the only our communication tools because long distance call like cellphone is very expensive. And my hobby also is always in the internet for i can do many things in here. thanks for responding.

If there was no internet around i would be busy either watching Tv or reading books or with my other hobbies during my free time. i am working so during work hours I would of course be busy with my work but during my free times i have a lot of things i can attend to. I agree the internet is quite very useful and informative but if it had never been around i guess we would not miss it and would always have other interests to take up our time.

Of course I would iss it too since the internet has already been around and i have experienced how useful it can be but what I meant is that if the internet had not been discovered, we would not miss it since we would always find something to while the time away just like people in the past used to do when there was no internet yet.

Yeah, true! I agree. but, don't you think we are luck enough now a days? It is a lot easier now that internet is around . Im pretty much sure that it would take some time to communicate someone that is far away from home, or do some research or just anything that the internet can do . Don't you think?

For me i would miss it because im using internet for communication with my sister who lives from other country and my friends who work abroad. This is the cheapest way to keep intouch with them. i would feel lonely.

If there is no internet in my life, then I will spend more time on watching TV, chatting with friends, painting etc. I will have more spare time for my other interests. I love China

When I have nothing to do, besides, the internet get disconnectted, it will be really terrible! I take advantage of the internet a lot including learning, keeping touch with my friends, and killing some boring time! Last hour, for example, there is something wroing with my internet connectiong. Thus I was so bored that I went out to a restarant with a friend. I am too full now and the internect is Ok

If I did not have the internet, I would probably be doing jigsaw puzzles or playing games on the computer. I do spend most of my time on the internet, but I have other interests as well. I also really enjoy reading and writing so, I could always find a good book or start writing something too. I think I would do ok and be able to entertain myself without the internet.

Good choice momjessie, jigsaw puzzles can keep our brain working and sharpen too. We need to divert to other hobbies if the other is not available. Thanks for responding.

That's so difficult. I'd probably call and ask assistance right away. Anyway, if there's no internet now, I'd just stay home and watch tv. In that way, I may enjoy myself somehow. And while watching tv, it would be also good to eat some food.

I think if the internet was not around I would be lost, the internet is my window to the outside world beyond my town. I would not be too bothered about some sites but it would be the information that I have at my fingertips that I would lose, being able to look things up when I want to learn about them. That would be the hardest thing to lose if the internet ceased to exist.

Well i'd be a little left out of ideas and more than a little upset with my internet provider. I'm kind of an internet/computer addict and it's more of an occupation now; but i don't get discouraged and I'll either play a game, go reading in a park or hang out with friends in the evenings :)
