End: No Technology Reflection

From abstaining from the use of cell phones, internet, television, and radio I learned that these things are not as necessary to my existence as I once believed. Not using my cell phone was absolutely the most difficult hurdle, but instead of listening to the radio in my car I just planned out my day and thought about papers I had due. Instead of watching TV before bed, I hung out with my mom and sister and cousin and had a great time. I'm not usually on the internet unless for homework or to check my email, so that wasn't too difficult. This assignment gave me time to reflect on what is important in my life and what should be my first priorities. Honestly I got more out of this assignment than I expected.
