My digtal life

 My digital life in another country

 Hi, my name is Nhat Anh, or you can call me Nicky for short. I am from Vietnam; I have been in Australia for 4 months so everything in here still feels quite new to me.

 Currently, I live in Lane Cove, Sydney. Besides that, I have not been anywhere else. But luckily, I have my phone which helps me a lot in my daily life. Because of it, I can explore several things such as access to information in Australia, setting an alarm for me to wake up on time, etc...

 I will pick the day on 2nd July in 2024 as an example:

7:50 AM: I have been awakened by the sound of my phone alarm and the ringtone of my phone when my grandma called me to make sure I woke up on time to maintain personal hygiene.

8:00 AM: I went to my bathroom to brush my teeth and take a shower.

8:40 AM: I done my personal hygiene and prepared for my healthy breakfast were 4 slices of sandwich and some hot coffee on that day because it was really a cold day. And I had breakfast for about 20 minutes.

9:00 AM: As a habit, I always check the bus routine on my phone and make sure I will come to the bus station punctual time. This place far about 500 meters away from my house and it takes me 5-6 minutes to walk per day.

9:14 AM: I got onto the bus to go to my uni ACU stands for AUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY. On the way I was going to uni, I used my phone and opened Apple Music and playing some favorite songs to relax. 

9:45 AM: I went to my uni as planned; and this day the first subject I have learned is Global Study this subject is so hard, and it requires me to find out a lot of things and I was using my laptop to do it.

 12:00 AM: I'm done my class and had lunch with my classmate, I went to Woolworths to pick up a package of kangroo meat, it had a good taste.

12:20 AM: I finished my lunch, and then I was searching some information from Safari and YouTube. And this is the last activity I did in my spare time at uni.

1:00 PM: I had a Math class, this is a class I really like because mathematics is the subject I refer to most than whole subjects. On that day, we learned about interest and it requires a lot of calculations, this is the time my laptop was useful most because I installed my calculator here. This is the one function of digital devices, it helps me save a little bit of money, and I still have enough ability to solve equations in Math.

4:00 PM: I done mathematics class and prepared to go home. Then, I received an item I ordered on eBay, it have been delivered on time. I really love online shopping and now everything more easier than in Australia because of the advances of technology.

5:00 PM: I got home, after that I watched some movies on Netflix with my bestie in Vietnam through Facetime, that is why devices and apps are a part of human life including myself.

8:00 PM: This is my dinner time, I usually have dinner when my host is home. I often have her set the table up for the dinner every single day. They treat me so well so I feel so good the whole time I have been here.

9:00 PM: I often call my aunt and my grandma to make sure their health are still alright. Then, I watched some anime and went to sleep.

I really love this life, because of the convenience of this. 

In conclusion, digital life presents both opportunities and challenges. Utilizing technology effectively can enhance our quality of life, but we must also be cautious not to fall into its negative aspects. Each of us has a responsibility to create a healthy and safe digital environment. Let's work together to turn the potential of technology into reality and bring benefits to the community.
