Shutdown Day

I've been without using a computer for 2-5 days the most...1 day would be a piece of cake...especially if I dont have any pressing work to complete on it...

1 day would be fun in the near future..probably a better experiment for the Summer, since I would save on electricity, where in NYC, blackouts happen because of energy overuse...but I guess I would be cheating myself because during the Summer one typically enjoys the hot weather and do fun activities like going to the beach and etc...

It's not hard. I do it a lot every month. Such as taking trips or simply not having time to go online because of studying.

Although, I do take Cisco Networking courses which obviously requires me to work on computers every day.

would be fun? boy, you nuts

there has been research done that states too many people are on their computers and all..its like people too often forget the "the other finer things in life." It took me a while to realize that I need to live my life a bit better, and live it to the fullest, and I just feel that this cannot be accomplished by being on a computer ( I am sure lots of people feel it can be) - how about doing something fun off the computer like windsailing? (lol)

^ Finally!

I've gone weeks without it. But I agree, once you get used to it, it's too hard not to keep coming back to it

I've gone weeks without computer access; it didn't bother me that much.

I just have to find something else more time-consuming, like...biking, playing tennis/volleyball/basketball, etc. Or just spending time with my family.
