Townsville Blog 10, Broome Blog 11, Port Hedland Blog 12

I am taking the media pledge (no access to internet, TV, radio, music for five days). I only realized yesterday that we could use the internet for homework requirements, and that's why I'm online doing my blog right now.

The first day of the media pledge. So far, I did manage to keep my pledge after school, although I found it somewhat hard. I think that it will help my productivity and task commitment, because now I am not distracted by the internet. however, today I played chess with myself instead, so I might still be procrastinating. Nevertheless, I asked my family members not to watch TV or listen to the radio or music when I am present. I feel that I might not be able to complete all five days, though. In this perioid, I will be busy packing, getting ready to move on Sunday, so I might not even have the time to even watch TV or go on the Internet.

Well, today, there were three breaches I was aware of outside school. After my piano lessons, we started moving some things to our new house. I saw the radio, and, forgetting about the pledge, I plugged it in and turned it on. 10 seconds later, my mom asked me why I was listening to the radio, when I was doing the media pledge? I immediately realized my mistake, and turned it off. I have to admit, though, that it was quite boring without the music. After some cleaning, we went to eat at McDonald's. They had some music playing, but I didn't really care.

When we were cleaning, I was sort of slacking off, and hanging around doing nothing. And when I was given a task to do, I had terrible productivity, and suddenly felt very hungry. Yeah. I know.

Ah. I am online right now. Well, it should be okay. I did not go to any website except those essential to completing my homework. I did not go on MSN or anything like that, although I did have to check my email. It should be okay, hopefully?
