MY TECH DOMINATED DAY

My days are filled with technology. You could say that I am addicted to all of the technology in my life. Well, OK, I am not addicted. When I am away from it I am fine - but if it is there and ready to use, I will be using it.

My life consists of sleep, school, work, and at-home time. Everything that happens in my life revolves around these categories [aside from the rare occasions that I actually manage to get myself outside to be social].

On the average night I sleep 4-8hrs - often during this time I will keep a fan and some music playing quietly for some background noise.


READING

- I will read magazines or the newspaper on my commute to school or work - this will amount to around 20 minutes for a one-way trip - about 280 minutes a week [a little under 5 hours].
- Pleasure reading [books, novels] - zero.
- Blogs - 7-10hours a week [this includes reading other blogs (news feeds, personal) and writing for my own blogs].
- Other websites - 5 hours


MUSIC

If I am at work the radio is on, so that will amount to around 9 hours [per day].
At home, it ranges from 4-20 hours [per day], depending on how long I am in my home.


TV/MOVIES

- I watch all of my shows online through my computer - around 10 hours [per week].
- Rare, but let's say two and a half hours [per week].


COMPUTER/INTERNET TIME

Social Sites - 2hours [per day]
YouTube & Related - 6 hours [per week]
Video Games - up to 10 hours [per week]
Emails/MSN Chat - 2-10 hours [per day]


PHONE

Talking - 0.5-1 hour [per week]
Texting - 0-5 texts [per week]

~~~~~~~~~~

Some of these numbers may seem ridiculously high, but on average this is how I spend my time. Also, many of these tasks overlap, so while I am watching TV shows I am also chatting, emailing, reading blogs, writing blogs, listening to music, etc.

You don't need to say it - I need to get out more. But you know, if I was out more I would probably end up investing in a laptop.

LOVE the new header, action. The gradient/rounded corners add a really nice modern touch to the vintage wallpaper thing. Kudos!
