Goodbye GBATemp... for now anyway...

It is almost the end of the school year... it ends on Friday. That means that I have to return the school issued Chromebook. As some of you know, I don't have internet at home... and now, I don't have any electronic device capable of using the internet. So.... that means no more GBATemp for the next few months. I will miss you all.

For most of my School holidays until I was 15ish we never had the internet at home, although the internet was not really the norm then. We never had the internet at School either until after we'd actually got it at home, although I did want the internet badly by that point.

To have any contact with anyone you'd phone their house phone or just go and knock on their door and see if they wanted to do anything, mobiles were sort of just up and coming then. We just used to play out on bikes, roller blades and in the fields around here all day for the 6 weeks holidays.

Enjoy your freedom and totally been disconnected, it's probably not something you will experience much once you get much older. Although I wouldn't want to be without the internet for so long now, it would actually be nice for a few days.
