10PM- 12AM: We walked around campus, climbed trees, did things of the reckless sort
12AM-12:45AM: Went to Taco Bell and helped fill up my friends' tire with air
12:55AM-1:40AM: Hung out with my friend in our dorm just chatting and not watching television, even though she tried to make me watch it.
1:45AM- 2AM- Got ready for bed
2AM-3AM: Played my guitar until my 24 hours of Amish Day was over so, I could blog about it.
By not utilizing technology at all, for 24 hours, my day seemed really hard to get through. For example, instead of just calling up my friends, to see if they wanted to hang out and eat with me, I had to go to their dorms and ask or hope that they would see me around campus, so I could ask them. The really weird thing about my day was that, even though I told many of my friends that I couldn't speak with them today on the phone, many of them still bothered to call me up and see if I would answer. I actually got more missed calls today, then I do on most other days. Some experiences that I've had without these forms of communication technology, such as my cellphone, are numerous. For example, in middle school, I didn't have a cellphone and my mom would come to my school to pick me up. However, many times, she forgot the time that she would have to go to school, to pick me up or she would have errands to run that took a great deal of her time. So, I would stay at school, till either her errands were over, or till she remembered to pick me up. With technology, the world seems a whole lot easier, especially because people are always either on the rush or are just really busy. Thus, the only way to communicate with them is either by using the computer or calling them up. Just going to a person's house does not really work as well too much, because you never know if they'll be there at that time.
