Back To The... Old Days 1984

As many people already know, I'm always on the computer and on my iPod Touch. I text a lot too. This day was not really as bad as I thought it would be because all I did was go to the DMV, then I was off to the gym to work out and play basketball. Communication was difficult because I was suppose to use my phone. So I ended up having to tell my mom exactly everything I was doing before I left the house so I wouldn't have to keep going home then back to the gym then back home again. I actually read the news from the newspaper! They still have those?! Entertainment was very hard. I'm good at meeting new people, starting a conversation and making new friends. So for entertainment I ended meeting some people that were in the
gym and just having small talk, regular conversations, and it turned out to be a pretty interesting conversation. The most difficult things that I had to give were my Ipod Touch and my cellphone. These were the most difficult ones because they were the two things I'm on the most. When I was working out I didn't have my own music that was a bit of a struggle, and I wasn't going to bring a 3 foot long boombox with me! The least struggle for me to give that day, was the television. For me, if it isn't in color, most of the time I won't watch it, but there are somethings that I would watch though. But I was mostly out of the house, like back in the '90s when you use to see all of the little kids outside running around and playing. There were some surprises for though. A few surprises were that I actually followed through with this Back To 1983 assignment. That I didn't try and sneak and watch some t.v. and say I didn't watch t.v. at all, even though that temptation was strong. Also that I got a chance to remember how fun it was to go outside and shoot around and lift weights with friends. But theres one thing that isn't a surprise for me, and it's that I know I won't be doing this again any time soon, well at least not without my music.
