Another Weekly post

I mentioned in my Weekly post 1 post that I was trying to do better about being on social media. I've done it before and before this time I never really thought about how hard it actually is. In a way, I often go on social media to escape what I am doing and look at my pictures where I was stress-free from school. I think being a senior I look at them often because of senioritis. So this week I wanted to compare from 2 weeks ago. In post 1 I used my phone that day for almost 3 hours... today I have been on my phone for a total of 5 hours and 36 mins. In all fairness it was because I downloaded this new app and I swear I have a problem, at least I am owning that. I do use Instagram less and a majority of my time now is spent on texting. I have picked up my phone a total of 6 times per hour which is one more time than before. I receive almost double the number of notifications than before and this time it is less Instagram and more text. Compare to 2 weeks ago where I was on my phone for 6 hours and 48 mins this week I have been on my phone a total of 2 hours and 26 mins. The time difference in that is unbelievable. Once again my most used was text messages. Before I picked up my phone 175 times per day this week it is only 73 times. I do end up having fewer notifications and I do think it is because I spent a lot less time on social media.

Overall I think the weekends are when I am on phone the most and I've really been trying to use social media less. Just for the simple fact of living in the moment. Now that I am currently texting more I think ill end up making more phone calls next week so I am on my phone less. But I will keep you updated on this journey and some tips I learned along the way. So once again Stay tune :)

I thought about this post I would talk about why everyone should get a dog. Speaking as a dog lover dogs are better than humans. I have 2 dogs Gia and Ella they are both rescue dogs and I love them so much. It's gotten to the point where I used to post them all the time on my social media accounts and some of my friends mention that I don't post myself enough. Which when I decided to make them there own Instagram. Most because these dogs are so photogenic and I swear they know it which is why they stop and pose every time I have my phone in my hand. Dogs give you more love and loyalty better than any human can. In a way, dogs are like babies they can't speak but they let you know when they have to go to the bathroom and when they are hungry... well at least my dogs do. Being that I made my dog Instagram really opened up how many people also do it. There are millions of dog accounts and some dogs are even famous. I think it's cool to see how people get their dogs to si...

Family Expectations vs. Reality          As viewed on TV families are seen as loving and playful. In the public eye, families are seen as in a way as perfect. They are often seen as the stereotypical family where the mother cooks and takes care of the children while the dad has a job. But this is unrealistic, families are often not happy and cheerful all the time and rarely do they depict that on TV. Often times they try to show the struggles families go through but in often times many people can't relate because they go through something much deeper.          Even though sometimes families separate they never show what it is like for the child and how messy divorces can actually get. They often don't show the struggle the family goes through that is actually realistic. I just think in general in the media we need to really talk about the struggles. I think it's so funny that on every media platform there are many ...
