A Day Without a Phone
Over this past weekend, when given the take exception to shut absent my ph ace for 24 hours, I didnt believe I could make it. My hollo is probably twisty in almost all(prenominal) bodily function I do throughout the day. brave out its taking notes down for my classes or tweeting my in style(p) localiseless thought. It guides me when its dark, tells me when its going to rain, and take down notifies me when I compass poked on Facebook. I tail honestly admit to beingness one of those citizenry who are completely leechlike on their calls.K todaying this about myself I had to fixings in leash heavy variables what day, what am I going to do, & of run-in how will I notify people of my whereabouts Being the weekend and all, its kind of dense not being on the telephony making plans for the darkness. How will I go about organizing a little farm together with the close friends? So I thought to myself, Friday and Saturday are too important to be out of the loop. I in the long run made my decision that Sunday is meliorate I mean, who cares about Sunday?Its a day of relaxation so I thought it would be consummate at one date I had to plan, what am I going to do. Earlier this weekend a friend of mine who was actually see from Florida had recollected me wanting to meet and catch up. practiced before turning my resound aside late Saturday I gave him a call explaining the situation, he laughed and told me to come pick him up from his aunts at 12 AM and to adept simply get out of my car, go to the front door, and knock. (Obviously texting a simple here. Would corroborate been simpler).Besides that I thought I would unspoiled wing it and see where the day takes me. Now I just had one lastly issue, I got to hide it Knowing myself sanely well, I knew it was a bad approximation to necessitate the phone around me, if I planned to actually commit to this. I decided to simply leave it in my mothers possession for safekeeping. With these thre e issues resolved Im now exhibity to, slide to power off. So Sunday begins. I woke up at around 11AM (kind of late repayable to the fact I couldnt sight the alarm on my phone).I got out of hindquarters rushed out to the kitchen and looked at the oven for the eon I quickly proceeded to shower and get ready. At 12AM I arrived at my friends aunts house to pick him up, knocked on the door and he came right out (no big jazz afterward all). We then went to lunch and dog-tired a few hours talking and playing some call of duty on my Xbox. Without noticing, it was almost 6 at night Wow I was impressed. By this time I probably would have had to ballyhoo my phone in for the second go against of the dayNow it was time to go to the gym, I usually use my phone to play music but I had to bust out my little mp3 from back in the day. At the gym Im rarely on the phone so this hour and a one-half went by swiftly has well. When I returned alkali I showered and started preparations to begi n on my homework. It being 8PM now I thought the worsened was over So I read my 20 pages of Feed and did some of my recital assignment and probably finished at around 930PM. At this point of the day I didnt even remember I didnt have my phone glued to my side.I realize now that having all those cool features and apps on my phone only makes me waist my time and extend on the important things I should be doing. The last few hours till midnight I simply watched a few episodes of The go Dead to pass the time. It really wasnt much of a challenge after all it was actually very relieving not being involved in all social media and texting throughout the day. Perhaps I will make this an event for every Sunday
