<span>A memoir can be a confession insofar as it is a person's attempt to tell a truth that has not been told before, or has not been told publicly. A memoir can be a thoughtful insight insofar as it takes events and memories and parses them out to look for deeper meanings or more general truths. A memoir can be both at the same time or just one depending on the kind of memoir it is.</span>

you are a computer addict, and this has affected your studies. So you have decided to write a letter to your pen-friend to ask h

Hi (name of your pen-friend)

Hope you're doing well. I really have a problem and need your help. I realized not so long ago (that) I was addicted to computers and of course the Internet. At first I was going on the Internet for my homework, but now, I spend my time on it. I used to read books, go to the movie, listen to music..

I go on social networks, read the news on the Internet, knowing that there are a lot of lies.. you know what I mean.. that kind of news becoming virtual.. but I just can't help it. I made virtual friends.. which is ridiculous.. I do have true friends. They don't understand why I always find an excuse not to be with them...

I spend my nights on the computer, on the Internet, playing online, chatting with people I don't really care about ...

My computer is becoming a golden cage ..... but it's all fake !! I loved going out with my friends, to parties, to the stadium or whatever.. It's all finished... they're going to let me down if I don't wake up !!

I told you I had good marks, I was doing well at school.. Well, not anymore ... I didn't pass the last exams.. I still want to be a doctor.. but I really have to wake up ...

I could have sent you an email.. but, my first step was to write a letter to you and not hurry on my computer.

Everything seems easier with a keyboard and a screen, but it's like being in a jail when you become addicted to it ..

So please help me to get out of this stupid addiction I'm getting into..

Don't let me down. I became a disappointment for my parents, my friends and myself ...

I really want to stop and be back in a "normal" life.. I mean everybody's life and mine. I don't want my dreams being a doctor to go away ..

I know you won't judge me and will give me good advice and help me to wake up !!

Thank's for everything... so long
