WEEK 7: 10/27 - 11/2

 I went to Taylor Swift last weekend, and this week was ROUGH trying to find motivation to get all of my homework and schoolwork done. I found myself taking a lot of breaks to scroll social media and text my friends. While these things are not inherently bad, they led me to push off two writing assignments until today, and they're due at midnight...lucky me. Next week I want to be more productive with my homework and get everything done by Friday afternoon so I can enjoy the weekend.

    My phone is such a distraction when I am not in the mood to do homework! Even though I feel like communicating through text is a good use of media, it is still a distraction.

    I've found the same thing for me! After doing something big and exciting, when I don't take the time to decompress and rest, it becomes really easy to default to getting on my phone.

WEEK 5: 10/13 - 10/19

With midterm tests and papers this week, I definitely spent a lot more time on my computer and my phone studying than I normally do. I noticed how tired I was at the end of the day after staring at my screens for so long in order to get my papers and studying done. I also struggled a little bit mentally feeling like I didn't have time to give myself a break and scroll TikTok or watch a show. It is safe to say I am glad midterms are over and I am looking forward to having a little bit more free time next week.

WEEK 6: 10/20 - 10/26

I'm going to the ERAS TOUR on Saturday! My sister got tickets last August and I have been looking forward to this concert every single day since. While I am over the moon excited, this week was also filled with quite a bit of stress trying to finish all of my school work and homework before I leave for the concert tomorrow morning. This has also been a slightly heavier week homework-wise for me than usual, so I have been spending extra time on my computer and less time on social media or watching shows. A couple nights ago my roommates and I decided to have a movie night and it was the perfect homework break for me. It reminded me that sometimes taking a break from homework and important things is beneficial for our well-being.
