Lets be real!

OK, so I genuinely tried to comply with the rules to this project however, as soon as I woke up on Saturday I had about five texts I replied to! It seems, for me anyway, that texting is one of the predominant ways I communicate. I text my dad, boyfriend, siblings, mother, step mother etc.
And obviously am barely being able to post this experience due to work (American Apparel) where as a manager I am always sending emails and music overwhelms the store. so just at work I am inadvertently going against this deprivation. Although some good news, as soon as I get home I'm doing well with not using the Internet for miscellaneous reasons, I use it only when i need to email my brother in NYC, or check my bank account, but now that I think about it I could just call and ask as oppose to checking online. Also not watching television is extremely easy for me as I never watch TV unless forced to at a family gathering (ironic i know). At any rate I did not see how this would be so hard until now where I am unable to use my Black Berry to its full extent or what I'm used to using it for. Its amazing how dependant people get on technology. and this is so because it makes things "easier on us, or so we think. we don't have to remember anything since we have snazzy alarms to do that, not even birthdays! We don't have to call people or talk face to face since we have BBM (Black Berry Messenger). Basically, and this is not surprise to me, we are lazy and love for things to come easy and that is exactly why we find this project to be a pain. We shall see what these last hours of depriving my self will hold.
