How I did it
How to spend a week away from the Internet, and not miss it
It took me
7 days
It made me
surprisingly happy

How I did it: I was housing sitting at my friends parents house. They do not have wireless internet (shocking, I know) and the only computer they have is in her dad's office and is password protected. I could have asked for the password, however I decided that I could live for one week without the internet. I was amazing. I never realized how much time I waste online. I got so much more done without a computer in front of me. I actually did all of my h… Read how I did it…

have normal sleep hours
Untitled

Work forced me to get normal sleeping hours. I used to stay up until 2 or 3 am and wake up around noon. But now I have to be up at 5:30 for work so I usually go to bed around 10 or 11.

I like that on my days off work I can’t sleep past 8 or 8:30. I get more done and I feel like I have a longer day off, because I am awake for more of the day than I was when I would sleep until noon.

However, I do not like going to sleep that early. I am a night person, I will always be a night person. There is just something peaceful about the night, when most everyone else is asleep and it’s sort of quiet outside.

So I have mixed feelings about my new sleep pattern. Ideally I’d like to stay up until 12 or 1, but it’s just not practical right now with my job.

get out of debt (read all 7 entries…)

One of my student loans is paid off!!!!

I’m so glad that I started paying on it while still in school. And I am glad I decided to transfer to a cheaper college. Private college just drain you of money unless you’re really rich or really smart and can get tons of scholarships.

I just have one more student loan left and 2 CC. :-)
