Arriving at Moral Perfection by Sadia Abdella

It was about the last year that I conceived the bold and arduous project of arriving at moral perfection. I realized I needed to live with limited technology; I would conquer using written material instead of technological things, more time for homework, and more social time. As I knew what I thought was right and wrong, I did not see why I couldn’t do all at the same time. But soon I found out I had taken a task more difficult than I thought. My habits were effecting me the most.

I spent too much time using the internet for things that weren’t important such as myspace and facebook; I watched a lot of tv; I often spent time sitting around listening to my ipod. It took up the time I had to work on homework. The less homework time I had the less social time I had. Slowly I worked my way in creating a limit of technology time by making a list of things that I should improve on most.

1.Internet: I gave myself 1 hour of internet use per day.
2.T.V.: I let myself watch only 2 hours of t.v. per day.
3.Ipod: I could use my ipod for half and hour each day.

Everything fits together very well, all your words make sense as if it was the original draft. I like it.

I really enjoyed this blog because I can relate to how difficult, but useful it is to brake bad habits. You captured Ben Franklin's style and kept your own voice and ideas. Nice job Sadia =)
