March 1st: DAY ONE

212

That is the number of students I counted walking to and from class today with cell phones out. Life without a phone or Facebook is boring. I don't know how my parents and grandparents did it!

Last night at 11:59 pm when I turned off my phone, I almost cried. The item that I have been so attached to for at least the past six years of my life now lies in the bottom of my desk drawer, locked away to prevent cheating. This morning I gave my best friend, Morgan the key. I trust her not to lose it.

My day actually went pretty well and the only times I really realized I didn't have a phone or Facebook was during lunch and dinner I didn't have a calculator to spend my whole $7.55, around 7:30 pm when Morgan asked if I wanted to call my boy, Seth, back home (which I said no to, however since in my rules I can use other people's phones, I will probably do that tomorrow..I miss him), and now as I write this while my roommate rubs in my face the fact that she's on Facebook.

I am going to try not to abuse the using other people's phone rule, but it's really hard to go from talking to people like Seth, as well as my sister, Brittany, every day and then all of a sudden it becomes impossible to get instant connection to them. All I can say is that I cannot wait for spring break!

We'll see what challenges tomorrow brings me!
