A DAY IN MY DIGITAL LIFE
Here's a little but about myself; I'm currently enrolled in the foundation studies online course at ACU which I attend three days a week. On the other days I work part time as a barista, play rugby and avidly go to the gym, here's what a normal day in my life looks like in terms of digital use:
4:30AM
Apple alarm goes off, start my day by checking my phone which involves replying to messages and scrolling through social media such as Instagram and Snapchat. I’m most active on social media in the mornings when I first wake up and at nigh time before I got to bed. I’m most active on Instagram and Tik Tok, I use Instagram to catch up on what my friends and family have been up to as well as interact with light-hearted posts, often sharing them with close friends.
4:35AM
Get dressed, do my hair and makeup.
5:00AM
Leave for work, connect my phone to bluetooth and listen to Spotify music on the drive.
5:15AM
Arrive at work, scroll through social media once more and hop on to Tik Tok for 10 minutes. I’m more active on Tik Tok however as it’s a good way of taking your mind off things but at the same time I find it an easy source of news and information on subjects of interest.
5:30AM
I work at a café as a barista and I wouldn’t describe myself as having to be digitally active during work hours, however as businesses start to rely on technology more and more, I find myself using an iPad to take and complete orders as well as three other digital tools to receive orders from three different online ordering platforms such as Ubereats and Menu-log.
11:00AM
Finish work and drive home.
11:30AM
Make lunch for myself and get ready for the gym, during this time I'm casually watching YouTube.
12:30PM
Leave for the gym where I again listen to Spotify as well as throughout my workout. I also record exercises and sets on an app called Gravitus.
3:00PM
Arrive back home and start watching my favourite tv series; "Scrubs" on Disney+. Disney+ for example is a platform I use almost every day to watch movies and tv series
Heres a quote below that's one of my favourites, basically sums up the humour in the show:
"J.D.:The doc here has been telling me you have some great stories. I wouldn't mind hearing one sometime.
Dr. Kelso: Oh what the hell, back in '68 I don't like you. The end."
5:00PM
Connect my phone hotspots to my laptop and log on to Canvas and am then present for my ACU online lecture.
8:00PM
Log off and make myself dinner as well as have a shower and get ready to settle down for the night.
9:00PM
Continue watching "Scrubs".
10:30PM
One last scroll through Tik Tok, set my alarm and go to bed.
