I'm giving up TV for lent...

|
I've never given up anything for lent before, but I'm going to do it this year. I wanted to give up something that would actually make a difference to me, something that would affect me. I'm going to give up television. I'm putting my TV in Jake's room, because if I just unplug it, I'll just plug it back in. I'll still be able to watch DVDs and movies at the movie theater. I'm going to make an exception for the NCAA basketball tourney, but that's it.

Things to do instead of watching TV:
  • Read (I'm making a list of 3-5 books I want to finish before Easter)
  • Go to the gym, spend time making healthier food
  • Work on my website, the redesign is going to be up before Spring Break
  • Keep my room and kitchen clean
  • Go to sleep at 1 A.M. and wake up around 9 A.M. (instead of 2-3 A.M.to 11)
Update: I'm giving up fast food, too. Except for sandwich places (i.e. Quizno's, Subway, or Jimmy John's)
