Kristina Hurley's List: Digital Citizenship

• I played wiffle ball outside with my boyfriend.
• I even did my homework outside.
• Not only did I get fresh air but, I also cleaned my room.
• Because I didn’t have my phone to text or the computer to surf the web, my only choice left was to actually do my work. So I did.
• amazing experience
• I would recommend anyone who is up to it to at least try it for a couple days. You will learn so much about yourself and even those around you.

• it’s much tougher to keep in touch as personally as I’m used to
• When I said that I was able to listen more closely to my girlfriend while we walked and talked through the park
• It was really nice to be unhooked for a week or so, giving me a chance to think about things I would not usually ponder. I discovered a lot of ways that technology has a chokehold on society in a negative way, considering the fact that people have the audacity to text and talk simultaneously. I realized that this accessibility of information should not be taken for granted by making you lazy or reluctant to visit your local library. I also realized that technology is a great benefit, putting information at your fingertips, knowledge of just about anything is a click away.
