#20

#20- Stay off Facebook for a week...

This one has made me realize how much I rely on Facebook not only to entertain me, but to keep up with/keep in touch with people. It's crazy to think that just 5 years ago, I did not think in "status message" mode, I didn't plan events to hang out with friends, or win contests... to think, I had to look at "real" photo albums to see pictures of friends! :-P

I know that Facebook has its downfalls, and too much of a "good" thing can be a BAD thing... but I appreciate how it has helped me befriend people again that I lost touch with, and helps to keep up with busy friends through status messages and pictures.

Through this week, completing #20 on my list has shown me how hard it is to quit something cold turkey (I know you are all laughing at me right now, but what do YOU do when you are just sitting around, waiting in line or waiting on a friend to meet you...? I know lots of you like me that sit on your phone on Facebook while you wait! Don't lie... :-P), and how much of a habit Facebook is in my life, but also a way to keep in touch with people. I'm going to try my hardest to find another "habit" that makes a better use of my time. But that's not to say I won't be on Facebook anymore. ;-)

#20, completed!
