First Post! :)

Hey all,
This is my first post on here! How exciting.
Basically, this blog will be me blogging once a week about the technological distractions I encountered while trying to do school work.  Even as I'm typing out this blog, I'm listening to music on my itunes and surfing through Facebook. I have my phone at my side as well, and I'm texting a couple people.

What I wanted to talk about in this first post is what I'll be doing for the next 6ish weeks on here.  I will have a weekly "guest" aka one of my friends talking about how distracted they get when attempting to do homework, along with my own posts.

Okay, so this week I had my first midterm and I attempted to study, but got distracted with Facebook and even watched a movie to get out of studying.  There's such an assortment of distractions nowadays that it's so simple to forget about studying and do so many other things.

Important articles I found on this :
