Text is a way to communicate without having to speak. It is just as explanatory as speaking and can, in some ways, say more than a person could say. Text is any form of writing that was created for a purpose whether it is to inform, to teach, or to explain. Text serves as a means of communication when talking isn't necessarily an option, i.e. text messaging. Just about everyone texts now because of its convenience and how much quicker it is than it would be to call someone. Think about how much easier it is in some cases to text people, you accomplish the same thing but in less time and effort. Therefore, text is more or less, communication  redefined.

Over break, I noticed that I sort of stuck to the whole idea of not watching as much tv. I spent most of my time out with friends but when I did watch tv, it was never for more than a couple hours. I found an alternative to watching the actual television is to watch shows online. So that is mainly what I did. However, I still limited the amount of online shows I watched, choosing to read instead. I feel like the thirty day challenge stuck with me a little bit because now that Im back at Ball State, Ive succeeded in not watching tv at all and I don't really care to. I want to try to be more productive for the rest of this semester and not having tv as a distraction will help a lot.
