Yes that is possible for me because it seems as if i have done everything on the internet already and it feels as if there is nothing left that is new. But i still come on everyday although can do without. Maybe because the holiday is so boring or maybe its because i have done school and there is nothing else left to do but wait until September comes.

I have not tried to do this for a long time and I don't think I'd like to because the internet is so useful for so many things in life. I am sure that if I needed to I could happily go without using the internet but why deprive yourself of something that can help to enrich your life and the lives of those around you. There is a time each year when I don't access the internet and this is when I am on holiday. However, last time I was abroad my sister-in-law had her baby so it was wonderful to be able to have a look and see the photograph of my new niece a whole day before we could come home and see her. That was lovely and reassuring and it was nice to have something extra to look forward to on our awful plane journey home.

Well physically, I think I can but I don't want to. I say because I have done so before. There were days when the power went out for long periods of time or because the computer had issues that had to be resolved, so I could not have Internet access. I do think it's something that I can physically do and have done before, but the day seemed much slower. I think it's less being physically able to do something and more wanting to actually do it, because of the Internet. It's such a huge part of my life that a day without the Internet does seem about as twice or three times as long. As I said, it can be done and circumstances have forced the issue. I think if I had a lot of things that could keep me busy, I could but there is always that thought in the back of my mind that there is something that I can be doing right now on the Internet.
