One Week

So here I am, one week without digital socialization. During the past week, I've spent time outside playing football, sitting across from beautiful girls on sunlit patios, eating burritos while playing Smash Bros, and reveling in freedom. It's a wonderful day - I might sleep outside tonight if it's warm enough.

Who knew that technology was so limiting? I guess it's true that 'absence makes the heart grow fonder'; I've started to spend more time in real life than online. Not having MSN has been hard at times - especially when contacting people - but it forces others to see me in real life rather than over a faceless connection.

On top of that, I'm free. I still worry about my friends, but now it's bearable - I can let go and tell people to work things out without me - and take time to discover who I am. It's nice when others take the initiative to find you, rather than having to track people down whenever you feel like hanging out.

Things are looking up. The sky is clear and the sun is out, exams are done, and the world is okay.
