Thoreau Experement #1

Wow. I have to say I thought doing this project was going to be easy but I was way off on that one. I was doing fine when I got up. I resisted the urge to turn my computer on, I used my iPod to check my email and that was all. And then I got to my job in the Psychology Office where I am a computer attendant. I knew that being there, there was going to be temptation and I worked past if for the first 45 minutes. I ended up giving into my curiosity and bordom and I got on facebook. I realized that it was all I did at work and without it I just sat there. I collected myself from my relapse (its like i'm a drug addict :]) and started again. I picked up my kindle and started reading one of my books and that kept my mind off of it. I made it through most of the day without clicking on my bookmarked link when I had to get on my computer to do some homework. I think for the first day I did pretty well considering I tried to keep my phone in my room for the day and not use it. I did have to use it to call my parents about the meeting that I had, but for the most part other than a few give ins I stayed away from that. I felt like it was easier to say away from my phone than it was facebook and that kinda scares me. Im hoping tomorrow I will be able to put more self control over myself and stay away.
