The device that I couldn't live without is an alarm clock because I wouldn't get to school on time.

I think the five things I couldn't live with out would be food, the toilet, my computer, music and clothes
#1Because if I didn't have food I would die.
#2Because if I didn't have a toilet I couldn't go to the bathroom and I'd have an accident in my pants.
#3Because if I didn't have a computer I wouldn't know what a computer is and I wouldn't be able to go on the blog! #4Because I need music to sometimes help me concentrate and to entertain me#5Because if I didn't have clothes I would be embarressed because I would be naked and I wouldn't be able to go anywhere!

The device I use that I couldn't live without would be
a phone because if you want a friend to come over you would have to walk all the way over (or drive and use up gas)just to ask or because if there is a fire or if your sick at school you can't go home because you can't get a hold of your dad ,and you can't call a kin member from far away you could not without a phone that MOSTLY why I couldn't live without a phone!
