I don't want to give up on myself. But I feel that things in our society today makes it easier and easier. Maybe just "our society today" because I hate when people say that, just like saying "kids these days". With things like Facebook, twitter, and instagram being the main staples of the world of distractions today. I do want to be different and I do want to accomplish things that I aspire for myself. That is why this semester I will be deactivating my Facebook, twitter, and instagram accounts. As much as I adore them they do keep me from things that I want to achieve this semester and over the next two years for a social work program. I mean it seems quite simple, you have something distracting you from what you achieve for, so you eliminate that from your life. It doesn't come without its consequences. All my organisations, groups, and friends from abroad are on facebook and that is the only means of communication which has got me in the past to take the plunge and get back on the social media roller coaster. As always with me social media has been a love hate relationship, I have deactivated my account now 3 times each lasting around a month to 3 months. So I want to make this commitment to myself to stay off of it and to find alternative routes to communicate such as a letter! How exciting is it to get a letter in the mail?! ok.. this may not happen but I'm not ruling out all my options. Of course I still have texting, email, phone calls, and netflix to distract me!

I wish there was an app that limits your time on social media sites, that compleatly blocks you down from it after using 10 mins of it a day. Most of you would all call that self control, but I guess I'm the only one that can't stop from clicking on that little icon to see if anyone missed me. -- no one really ever does.

blah blah blah.
