A Look In The Mirror

My Tech Addictions.

                 So far I've taken my time to examine how a fellow student uses technology, how a professor feels about the technology at hand, and how those around me use it when they shouldn't  now it’s time to turn the magnifying glass upon myself. I already knew this was going to be an interesting experience and having seen the results I’m honestly not surprised by them, still I’d love to share them with you. The date I’ll be talking about was Thursday November twenty ninth and I’ll be examining how I use technology, when I use technology, and why I use that technology. I can tell you now that as an avid gamer and tech lover the numbers are going to be high and as I know myself I won’t be surprised though I’m sure others might.

                My day starts at Seven when I wake up to the sound of my alarm on my phone of course though for the first few ours of my day the only piece of technology I use is my phone's mp3 player as I walk to the bus and head to school. Once there though during my down time I spent thirty minutes sitting outside the library enjoying the local internet using Facebook  From there it was off the English 101 where I used the computer for the next hour working on this very blog. Next I listened to music while I walked to my business class and for the next hour and a half my phone is away while I take a test. Afterwards comes a bit of downtime though this is mostly filled with studying in the library with a few other students I do use the computer for about twenty minutes changing my schedule for next semester. Of course in my next class I have a test yet again so from three to four my phone is in my pocket rather than in my hand. Finally with my day finished I head out to dinner with my family and we get home around six. From now on things get a bit hectic… Not only for the next six or so hours am I on my computer working on homework I also have it linked to my T.V. where I’m watching a stream and finally in my hands for most of the period is my phone constantly used to check Facebook or text.

                As I expected once I've got free time on my hands well it’s dedicated to the technology at hand. On a day where I have less tests I might have used my phone more at school but I still think this shows how much I use technology recreationally. Even as I write this Blog post I have a stream running in the background and a phone not far from my hand. At this point I’m not sure if it’s a good thing or a bad thing but I enjoy the distractions even if they slow down my progress a bit. In the future it might be a good idea to try setting all this technology aside and seeing how a day goes without any of it, but that’s for another day and possibly another blog post.

Catpion: As for what sort of videos I waist my time one.
