Screen Time

I find that each day in the week I spend a different amount of time using technology. On the weekend I tend to use less because I am usually busy with friends and sports. Also on the weekends I want to spend as little time doing homework as possible so I won't be on Facebook and doing home work I will stick to the task that I need to be doing. The weekends offer a great advantage because you can be outside all day without a phone and not thinking about your laptop inside. I admit that through the weekend I text my friends, but when I am with a friend then I don't feel the need to text anyone else because I can have face-to-face conversations. On the weekend I would say that I average between 45 minutes and an hour a day.

On school days I find myself spending more and more time on my computer. When I get home from school all I want to do is sit down with my phone and talk to my friends. Then when I pick up my laptop to do some homework I find myself getting distracted on Facebook and other Social Networking sites. I also find myself using my phone a lot on the rides to and from school. I like being involved in sports throughout the week because I find that when I am at a track meet I am having to much fun to even think about using my phone. On a school day I find that I spend between one hour to two hours on the screen of my laptop or phone.
