No Pinterest???

Day 2
I was good until the end of day two. I'm sad to say that I have relapsed. I thought "Yeah, I could do this! No problem at all." Until I realized I needed to call my mom. She started her new job and I didn't know her new work number so she texted me--long story short...I got the number. And I was actually sad because I was truly putting in effort not to use my phone. It was almost out of habit too, because I heard my phone vibrate, and I just picked it up. Oops.

Day 3
I did use my phone on Wednesday. However, I used it for it's main purpose, and that was to call. It worked out pretty well. Nobody texted me, so I didn't have the urge to text someone. I don't think I have a texting, Twitter, or Facebook problem. Personally, because I don't care for those apps and I barely use them anyway. I have a "I need to pick up my phone just because" problem. I feel the need to always have it, and look at it for show.

Day 4
Not using my phone is hard. I just keep looking at it. I believe at this point I just want to give up and give in. I can't deal with not using Pinterest(my favorite social media app) for a week. Luckily, I do have a computer to look on. And to be honest, I enjoy looking at it from the computer instead of my phone. The screen is a lot bigger and I can look at more pins in one scroll. I'm still upset that I picked it up though. I was hoping I'd do great. I'm starting to understand how addict feel about their drugs.

Cell Phone Stimulation-Day 1

I thought giving up my phone was going to be very easy. I didn't get a phone until seventh grade, so I figured I'll be fine, but that did NOT matter at all. I had my phone with me the whole time, the day before(Sunday), savoring every moment, until 11:59 pm. Monday came around and I became very antsy. I was fine until 3:00 pm. No, I didn't touch it, but I kept looking around like it was going to appear magically in my hands. So, I guess today was a little stressful, but I came through.
