33 days challenge of not using social media profiles - Day1

sometimes you get addicted to silly things and even do not notice of how much your time they eat. Sometimes you get addicted because you have no choice, as its part of your work, and you like your work more and more, so spend more and more time on things you should be doing with limits.
inspired of couple of my friends, some who managed and some who failed...all in all they gave a try, so i decided its also time for me - since yesterday 07.06.2012 i am taking exactly 33 days off from social media profiles that i use - the super popular FB, which i use a lot, but still don`t know how can i loose so much time on actually doing nothing there, and the top social site in Latvia - draugiem.lv - which believe it or not rocks over Facebook in Latvia, one of the rare countries where just 300 000 people knows of FB and are there but almost 2 million of latvians having their profiles up on draugiem.lv. All in all the challenge is set. I know i can cope with my addiction and instead of loosing time use it as i want and gain something out of it.

and yes, this is day 1, will keep it short and say, i am lucky i have work and friends. got home quite late today, so had not much of time of doing nothing. and even though the fingers were inpatient to type in the web my favorite sites, managed to get myself limited and it feels good. day 1 is over and luckily passed. a bit anxious, and feeling the "need" to check whats new, however seems promising that i will survive :)

Stay cool,
S.
