DAYS UNTIL LENT IS OVER: 48
So as I am preparing for what might be the hardest thing I've ever put on myself, I decided to create a blog so that everyone can feel my pain. For those who do not know, I am a self proclaimed Facebook Addict. I literally will be on Facebook for hours on end, doing absolutely nothing. The convinience of Facebook makes it all the more addicting, with notifications instantly popping up without having to refresh the page. Sadly, I knew what I had in store when I was *ahem* forced to make a Facebook just one year ago, and yet, I let it happen.
Amount of homework has steadily decreased as the amount of time it takes to get homework somewhat accomplished has increased. I've always been a procrastinator, but not to this degree. And as most of you know, procrastination and IB do not mix. In fact, I should be already starting my homework, but, I'm on Facebook, and homework probably will not start for another hour.
Thinking about everything that I'll be able to accomplish in those hours will hopefully be enough motivation to keep me going. In fact, I sort of want to start tonight, because The Biggest Loser is on in like an hour and a half and I have about 45 minutes worth of homework, and with Facebook, it will likely stretch out to three hours.
So here the journey begins. I'm not sure who I will be when I come out of this, but maybe this will make me appreciate Facebook, and life outside of Facebook, all the more. The thing that has me the most concerned about is my need for cyber social interaction, and it'll kill me to have things happen on Facebook without me knowing. What if I get into a relationship before Lent is over? I mean, it's never, ever official until it's on Facebook!
hope this brings entertainment, and self realization to you. perhaps this will help you figure out whether you are a Facebook addict like I am. Oh, Lent...no meat tomorrow, and I'm debating if I want to fast or not for Ash Wednesday. Maybe not.
