I'm guessing most of you are reading this right now because you are curious as to why I randomly disappeared from the social media world today! So, I'll cover that first and get it out of the way...
There were 3 reasons as to why I decided to take a month long break from Facebook, Instagram, and all the other time consuming boredom-busters, as I call them!
Reason #1: I just said it. Time consuming. I found myself on some type of social media app far too often, when I could have been spending my time in more productive ways (i.e. actually studying, homework, etc.) I would come home from school and check my phone, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat. Bam, bam, bam. Just like that. Every single day. Why? Habit. It's not always a good thing, people.
Reason #2: I'm curious as to what it will be like when my friends don't know what I am doing every second of the day. When I don't post a practical timeline of my day, or when I don't contact them every single time I'm bored. Will there be more things to talk about when we hang out in person? Resulting in a more enjoyable time? I'll find out!
Reason #3: I wanted to give myself a challenge. Sounds silly, but if I can truly stick to my word until January 1st, I will ultimately feel very accomplished! I'll probably have found better things to spend my time on so that when I do enter the social media world again it won't consume me like before.
So there you have it! My little (big) goal for myself this month. Hopefully I can stick to my word! I will still answer any texts/calls and I will continue to blog on here as long as you all keep reading! :D
Also, feel free to leave any comments on here below and I will gladly respond to that as well! Thanks!!
