    Week Without Technology: Rosemary Newsome–Day 1

    And you think your Monday was bad? Cheers to myself for kicking off a week without Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TV(besides The Bachelor, no way I was missing episode 2), Pinterest, Pandora, Video/Computer games, Youtube, Ipod music, and online shopping! This will be interesting. As I prepare to muster through my Calc assignment without Jack Johnson’s relaxing voice, I’m realizing how challenging this is going to be. I’m so used to crashing onto the couch and catching up on my social media for the day that I’m actually at a loss of what I’m supposed to do with myself instead. It’s sad how easily bored people of our generation are, so unappreciative of everyday pleasures and captivated by fleeting trends and gossip that they have to resort to petty social media sites to keep themselves entertained. Not that I’m any better, but perhaps more people need this wake-up call from the influence technology holds over us. Wish me luck this week!

    -Rosemary
