How attached are you to your electronics?

    Just as the title says, how attached are you to your electronics? Do you feel like they are an important ruler of your entire life?

    For me, I'd have to say my iPad. I can't last one day without being on it at least once. If for some reason I had to go more than a day without it, I would freak out. I just can't part with it because I've gotten so used to having it. My phone tends to be the same way. However, I did go until Mayish without having one.

    So, what about you?
     
    As a city kid currently living in a small, rural town, I don't go a day without using an electronic. I keep a PSPgo in my pocket because of frequent travelling; in addition to being compact, I find it better to run emulators on it than on my phone thanks to a dedicated control layout. I also have a notebook computer for social media, daily news and programming. Our family owns a PS3 system, but it is used more for movies that playing video games.

    I am quite attached to my devices, but I can go without them without a problem when kept busy with other things (sports, school, work, etc.)
     
    At most when I'm out and about I usually bring my phone and 3DS to play with on travels, as well as a pair of headphones. Nothing more. (honesty I wouldn't bother with my 3DS if it didn't have streetpass functions, thanks nintendo) I feel I would start to worry about losing them or having them damaged if I brought anything that I couldn't easily replace, and I would distract myself from the real world because of my electronics that bring me into a digital one.
     
    I try to take care of my electronics for as long as possible as I don't have too many opportunities to treat myself something semi-expensive. Like a few others I can be away quite a few times so I tend to bring my phone all the time and sometimes my 3DS.
     
    I always have my phone with me for gaming or related things. I'm really attached to my PC, if anyone would ever try to break my electronics or do anything wrong when they use them (if someone wants to play a game on my phone or computer, I can't say no...) but if they would break them or I see they don't use them carefully, I will become angry.
     
    Let's just say you're attached to electronics if you carry a cell phone with you and you try to use it at any possible time :P
