My Week Without Facebook

As I mentioned last week was my sorority recruitment and during that week they asked us to deactivate all social media (except Pinterest could stay... yay to my 87 new pins since I couldn't be on facebook!)

I went a week without Facebook. I know that should not seem like an accomplishment, but it was. And it marked off one thing off of my 101 in 1001!

The first day was the worst.  I rode in the semi with the boy and while we were waiting it is habit to get on Facebook on my phone and every time I clicked it, it asked for my log in info and I couldn't do it.  The 2nd and 3rd day I clicked a few times, but by the end of the week I didn't think about it.

And when I could finally get on... there was nothing exciting. I didn't miss a single thing (except my besties cousin had a baby, but my bestie had sent me a pic and shes adorable!)

Then now as I've been on for 72 hours, there is still nothing new on facebook.  But I am still constantly checking it.

A week without Facebook was a good reality check.  I feel like in today's society people, including myself, rely to much on technology.  It was a nice break to not have it and just live my life and not read the posts and drama facebook has.  Take the challenge to go a week without Facebook, have a real connection and relationship with yourself. 

Have a good day!
