Day Thirty-Four

DAYS UNTIL LENT IS OVER: 13

So it's been awhile, I haven't really written because I haven't really needed to vent about it. You know why? It's been very easy. Sure, I've missed some break ups and make ups, but I eventually hear about it, even if I am the last one to know. And of course, I was addicted to updating my status once every second and I still constantly think, "oh, that would be a good status" and sadly sometimes I think in third person, imagining it as my status. Okay, that is a pretty pathetic confession.

Nonetheless, I haven't written because giving up Facebook, truly giving it up for an extended amount of time, is a lot easier than most would think. Giving up Facebook for a few days, even a week, would be hard, because it's not enough time. I'm curious to see what I'll be like when this is over. How much will I go on Facebook?

Here's my prediction. I really truly believe that within a week I will be back to my old habits. I'll be on Facebook constantly, always changing my status, always commenting and "liking" everyone elses. And you know what? I really don't want to. I don't want to be on Facebook. I just went this entire spring break without going on Facebook once, and I really didn't miss it, except for the fact that I have a ton of picture I wish I could put up. Other than that...

So I've survived this long. I've got thirteen days left, and right now I know I can do it. I'm so proud of myself and I know this is pathetic, but this is a huge accomplishment for me. I'll probably be back here on Easter sooo catch ya later.

Day Seven.

DAYS UNTIL LENT IS OVER: 41

This is easy peezy. I can do this, it's not as tempting as I thought it'd be. But that may be because I'm needing a lot more sleep lately and Facebook is honestly not too appealing.

To say it in a nutshell, it has been quite the week. Everything seems to be piling on all at once, one bad thing after another, and all this stress makes my head ready to explode. I'm so looking forward to next year, forecasting was nice because I only checked two IB classes...and next year I'll be taking classes that I'll actually enjoy.

I wish I possessed the ability to express my feelings. I'm the type of person that keeps it all bottle inside till it starts to get to be too much. I wish I could be like Mersault! Oh, a Stranger reference. Oh geez.

Now if only my "off-week" at track will go away! It's frustrating how much faster I was two weeks ago and suddenly it's like I've never ran in my life. SO FRUSTRATING.

Day Six.

DAYS UNTIL LENT IS OVER: 42

How lame is it that I had to rely on Facebook to be able to socialize? Hello, have I even heard of a phone? I think we're relying way to much on cyberspace to communicate when it is so much more intimate to talk on the phone. When I say intimate, you're actually speaking to that person, instead of articulating a well-crafted "wall post". So, that said, I should not need Facebook to be the way I can socialize, when my telephone is sitting on the desk, right in front of me.
