spend less time on the computer

Our internet doesn’t work very well, so lately I’ve just been checking my mail and that sort of things at school. So I’d say I’m doing much better at this! If you don’t take into account Messenger or Skype converdations that sometimes last a few hours… =D

We just got a new internet system in our home which makes it possible for us to go online on all 5 computers. So now I can easily use the internet on my laptop. Too easily…

Well, I guess this means I need to have more control and not use the computer just because I can.

Starting tomorrow, I’ll only allow myself to check my e-mail. And I don’t even have to do that every day. I hope this’ll work.
Oh yeah, if I need the computer for school work, I can of course use it, but only for working!!!´
See you in a week!

Okay, I’ve decided now. I will give myself 15 minutes per day to use the computer. But if I don’t use it today (too late, haha) I can use it for 30 minutes tomorrow and so on. But yeah, schoolwork that requires more time is okay, but only if I relly work!

Hah, this is funny. Just like about 7 years ago when we got an Internetconnection, and my parents set up rules that I can use the Internet for one hour per week. Haha! =) Sounds so funny now when I often use it for one hour a day, or more. Then I had a paper here on the desk where I wrote every time for how long I had stayed on the Internet. Maybe I should make a similar paper now. =)

I’m thinking about giving myself a time limit, a certain time that I can use the computer every day. But how much would be good? I’m thinking about 15 minutes per day. But if I’m working on something I could of course use it longer. But then I have to really work, meaning no Messenger and no extra surfing at the same time!
Or should I instead of a time limit have some restrictions on what I can do on the computer? Meaning that I would give up checking certain sites… Hmm, I need to think about this.

Okay, I’ve failed doing this… (But I don’t mean I’ll give up!) It’s just so nice to just search random things on Google, play games, chat with my friends and so on, but I really shouldn’t. It takes more time than you think. And the reason why I haven’t had enough time to do the other things that I want to do, is because I’ve got so much schoolwork to do, but if I would surf less on the Internet, I’d have enough time to do them… Of course I need relaxation and fun too, but not pointless surfing to avoid things I need to do. And would prefer to do.
