Mass Media: Has It Got A Hold On YOU?

We all use it, you can't even deny it. Text messaging, instant messaging, televisions, ipods, you name it, we use it! I even use it, but I guess I only use it keep in contact with my mother for when I go out, and to keep in contact with friends that I don't see that often. I, personally, use these forms of media every single day, and if I don't, it just means that I got grounded. There's no point in me saying that I DONT rely on it, becauseI really do, it's a great way to entertain myself, to relieve me of the creeping boredom coming my way. People think they can manage possibly a few days without technology (if they're lucky enough to manage without), me on the other hand? I can't. The media not only has a hold on me...It has a death grip, and it's not letting go anytime soon.
