Day 9 without Social Media

Friday, November 19, 2021




Today will be the first time I see one of my best friends in 2 years and I am so excited. I am so surprised we lasted that long talking over the phone because I don't communicate well across devices. We met on the first day of school in September of 2017 and I met my other friends 1 and 2 years after.


I accidentally woke up at 7 am this morning and I have to reach Face to face school by 8 am. No surprise, I missed my bus so I had to wait for another one to be full. I got to school around 8:30 and just ditched my 8 am class. It no longer made sense to go. I walked around the whole school with a friend to look for my bsf and I got the most comfortable hug of my life. It was like hugging my grandma. Weird, I know.


Today I was constantly hearing people on TikTok. The songs will just play right after the other and the sad part is that I know every word to these songs. I can't even remember what my teacher teaches right after a class but I know these songs word for word. I really needed this Social Media Break.


My day was spent with me walking back and forth from one group of friends to another. I was really happy today but then everyone slowly got on my nerves. Either someone was rushing me or someone was taking way too long and at the end of the, I went home pissed. I can never win.


I was ready to go home at 1 pm but I had to sit through a face to face class. I was ready to go at two and they were closing off the access points to the fifth form block so I was locked out. The problem was that all my friends were locked in and they were not in a hurry to leave. Two had a class going on and the other three was just chilling and I didn't want to walk by myself.


I was there for about 2 hours or maybe less waiting for these kids and I was hungry and one of them kept asking me to leave the others. I was so annoyed by the time they were all ready to go and 2 of them had the audacity to be angry at me. For what? I don't really know but what I did know was that I should be the only one angry because I just wasted 2 hours doing nothing and I was hungry.


AN: This blog is like my daily diary entry. I know my life is not really interesting but I am just doing this for fun and maybe i can inspire someone from something I said.
