Oh no! I forgot my computer, and I have lectures today.
Why do you need it for a lecture?
I use it to take notes.
Don’t you ever use pen and paper?
Never. It’s easier to organize my notes later if they’re on the computer.
But writing in a notepad is faster, and nothing gets deleted.
True, but you could lose your notepad. My notes are backed up online. Don’t you type them up after lectures?
No, I just use my handwritten notes when writing essays.
I can’t do that. I also check things online during lectures if I need to.
That would be too distracting for me! I’d be on the Internet all the time.
I guess I'll try your way.
Alright! Let me know how it goes.
