My media Diet

Wednesday:
woke up at 5am, skyped my friend in spain for thirty minutes, left for practice. got back from my 915 and again skyped my friend in spain for an hour. got back from my 1030 and listened to music till i left for this class, so roughly 2hours. Had crazy midterms schedule so after practice i studied in the libs from 8pm-1am, the whole time grooveshark was my companion, so 6 hours. adding about 15 minutes for texting, total for the day was 9 hours and 45min.

Thursday:
got back from practice in the morning and decided to relax and watch some Big Bang Theory with breakfast, 30 min. proceded to study for 2 hours before my class, the whole time grooveshark was on. after the class and practice I donated another night to the libs, from 9pm till 1am, again with grooveshark, 4 hours. total for the day was 6.5 hours.

Friday:
skype my friend in spain after my 1030, one hour. have a race this weekend so i cant go out, after practice i make a massive dinner and consume it infront whilst my watching a movie with my apt mates, 2 hours. study in the libs with grooveshark and fb in the background for 3 hours. include 30min for texting that day. total is 6.5 hours

saturday/sunday
we drive to and back from the Newport aquatics Rowing Festival. 6hours each way, the way there an ipod was used for 1 hour during the car ride, and on the way back my teammate remembered he had an adaptor for the car, so we used an ipod the whole way back 6hrs. not much media usage there cause the hotel was a piece of shit and we figured antagonizing the man, who's gf just caught him cheating, would be more fun than watching tv, (thanks athletic dept). add 30 min of texts. the weekends total was 7.5 hours

Monday
midterm after morning practice, so i slept a lot after and between classes. my roommate watched pokemon for 3 hours while i was doing homework in the same room (dont know if that counts cause i heard it) groove shark is awesome, 2hours while doing school work. plus 15min for texts. total 2.25 hours maybe 5.25?

Tuesday
after morning practice i skype my friend in spain for an hour. go to lab. do readings with grooveshark at my side, 2 hours. 30 min for texts. days total was 3.5

Week total= 36 hours of media usage, Holy shit!

I believe that compared to some people i know, my usage, how impossible it may seem, is the same. i tipically used media to study with, grooveshark in the background. or to catch up with my dear friend and her adventures in spain/help her with math. others just blindly sit in front of the tv or computer and are not productive. this is what i believe makes most of my usage legitimate. i dont think that i will change my media diet too much, but just be more aware and try to be as productive as i possibly can. being in college definatly affects my diet because we are provided with wireless for free and have access to most everything we need.
