Social Media Hiatus - Day #2

I miss the Philip Defranco Show. Why did I do this to myself. It's only day one, and I'm miserable/ hate the world-- Regular me, except I don't have Twitter/ Tumblr to get my mind off of it by giving me more reasons to be miserable/ hate the world. I made changes to the list. Netflix got a pass: 

1. because it is technically a streaming website, and not a social network, 
2. this is the 21st century go damn it, and no one can take away my right to watch tv shows, not even me, 
3. and it is like I'm watching TV.

YouTube does not get a pass though. The comments section and the interactivity make it a social networking website, and it is not TV. On a brighter note, my constant desire to punch people's faces has decreased, or so I tell myself.

Water bottles consumed: zero. 

Social Media Hiatus - Day #1

I am on a social media hiatus--mind you, I am using the term social media very loosely here. Websites/ apps to avoid include: Twitter, Tumblr, Snapchat, Youtube, and Netflix. They are not to be downloaded on the phone again until next week on the 25th. As for the laptop, I have logged out, and I will use the remaining self-control I have to keep myself from logging in. If it gets difficult, I will change the passwords. This decision was rushed and unanticipated, but I need to clear up my mind from the disattachment they brought. I have been telling myself that I need to be more involved IRL. I am not trying to disconnect myself. I will email one person a day to talk discuss opportunities. Also, while I am at it, I might as well drink more water. My twitter timeline alone is loaded with enough negativity to worry an enthusiatic high school "graduate" over the future of our nation.nMy only hope is when this experiment is over, I do not fall back into old habits.
