No technology

So I didn't think my day would be very different with out technology but boy was I wrong. It first started with walking to class without my ipod. This forced me to look at my surroundings more. I noticed how nice our campus was with the trees and I also read a lot of messages in chalk on the side walk. There was also a performance going on with dancers dressed up in colorful outfits. I would not have even heard the music if I had my ipod in my ears. Also, while in class I was very attentive and I took very detailed notes. This never happens when I use my phone because I am always talking to someone which takes my attention away from the class. With out tv, I did a large amount of homework which never happens. I always spend my time watching movies instead of homework which makes my work rushed and sloppy. Without my computer I was unable to chat with anyone on facebook. I felt cut off from the world. Texting and phone calls set up any social plans with my friends which I didn't really have any in teh 24 hours I was cut off from the world. I plan on cutting down my tv time in order to stay productive with homework, but I still enjoy my ipod because even though I was more aware of my surroundings, I still was bored walking to class.
