Social media Blackout 3

During this day that I stopped using social media and while I didn't use it,  I did several things like taking a nap, talking with my roommates, playing XBOX, going to the gym, supermarket, cleaning all my room, reading about soccer news. Looking through all the things I did make me believe when I spend time doing all these things, I don't need social media. It seemed to me that I only used or spend time on my social media when I don't have anything to do.

Spending time on social media keeps me out of stress when I have a test to take and also helps me to do something when I am not doing anything. Social media is always interesting because you are looking at new things every day. Those might be sad, happy, enjoyable and more, but I have to say that it is a bad habit to all the humans and myself too because I could recognize that we are not enjoying life the right way. The right way of enjoying life because we are using these social media apps while we are are in a conversation with a friend, when we are eating with our family, when we are in class and not paying attention to what the professor is saying. Being all the time at your phone and not having a conversation with a person is what the new generation is facing problems because they are not allowed to have a good conversation in person because they are afraid of it, which means they can only show who are they through Facebook, texting, Instagram and others. Social media is a way to connect people through another completely world than the real world; what I mean by this is that instead of wasting our time to all these social media programs we can enjoy more by just changing our habits by going outside and playing games as a normal kid or person, shopping, biking, playing sports, climbing a mountain, or hanging out with your friends. 

I determine myself to be an addicted person because after 5 p.m. I was checking Facebook every hour non-stop. I feel this happens to me either because I am nervous or I don't have anything to do. What a horrible addiction that I have and by stopping using these programs, I could realize that I can spend my time by doing more other important things than just depending on checking other people's accounts or trying to keep in touch with them.
