TV SHOPPING AND SURFING INTERNET


Watching too much TV is something I feel that I do a lot of I am trying to cut back. On average I watch say maybe 8 hours a week of TV. I don’t know maybe less since most of my time is now spending doing school work mines or my kids. But TV is something I do and wish if I could find something else to entertain me. When I get home from school or work after I finish my chores I will just turn on the TV and watch home improvement shows, cooking or Disney with my kids.

Surfing the internet I do a lot of when I am at work. Since I work at the Library when I am supposed to be working I am usually surfing the internet. Soon as I go into work first thing I do is go on the internet to read some mindless gossip about celebrities. I also love to surf the internet at work to shop for clothes, shoes or anything else that interest me. Since I work in such slow environment I only surf the internet when I am at work I spend about maybe 10 hours a week on the internet because I always on go many times during the day. I usually don’t use the internet at my house.

Shopping is something I love to do whether it is on the internet or in stores I love a good sale. It is not as if I have a problem like some people who maxed out all of their credit cards. I tried to never use my credit cards to buy clothes which most of the time I can do with out. It is just something to do instead of watching TV and surfing the internet. I shop mostly whenever I see a sale and believe that this is such a good bargain I can pass up.

When I think of some of my leisure activities I would love to give up watching TV. I love to spend more time going places with my children. It is something I am trying very hard to do instead of staying home and watching TV I would love to just take the train and go to a museum. What is stopping me you ask after I worked a 35 hours a week job and go to a 9 hours a week school I am tried and just wants to relax. Unfortunately TV does that but I am trying to get my priorities straight and make that a reality.

I really don’t have a leisure time schedule I used to read two books a week but don’t anymore that is something I would love to do more of. Shopping and surfing the internet brings me the joy because for two hours or more I get to forget about life and its problems and just focus on if that jeans will fit or on some nonsense that I am reading on mediatakeout.com. Most of all spending time with my children brings me the most joy I just have to find more meaningful activities to do with them. Instead of surfing the internet for gossip and clothes maybe I can look up for things to do with my family that does not cost a lot of money.
