 Thor Joined on: 14 Jan 2005 06:35 | An experiment in abstinence | A friend has talked me into performing an experiment. Basically, I'm addicted to computers and the Internet, and have spent 75 % (1990 - 2007) of my life on them. This addiction has caused me to neglect my life goals, and I thus consider it a Bad Thing(TM). I'm therefore going to attempt to not touch a computer for 7 days, starting on Sunday, June 24th 2007. I will also avoid accessing the Internet from my cellphone. If you catch me online before Sunday, July 1st 2007, consider the experiment to have failed. I'll be online for a bit today, to settle unfinished business. My cellphone is really underused, so if you have questions, want to support me or just chat during this time, you're welcome to send me a text message or give me a call at (+47) 938 67 926. Regards, Thor |

Turns out I can stay offline for an amazing 33 hours. The need to practice and record songs was what did it, since I can't do that without the computer. XD Also, someone paid me money to set up their computer with Linux so I had half-broken it already. XD I was seriously not planning to actually log onto the Internet, but failed to resist it. x_X
At least I can talk to my friends now. I have like 2 friends off the Internet and we don't hang out much. XD  Kilala_Kit Joined on: 8 Jun 2006 04:10 | Re: An experiment in abstinence | | | Posted on 26 Jun 2007 08:16 | Quote |
