day 5

I take back what I said yesterday since today was definitely the hardest day. I am completely aware of how reliant I am on energy consumption since my electricity went out in my house about a month ago and there were not a lot of things I could do. I couldn't use the refrigerator or the stove, as well as the lights were all out. I couldn't charge my dying phone or laptop and was bored to tears. While none of it was essential, I couldn't even turn my lights on or see without using a flashlight. Today, for the challenge, I took out all the plugs of things I wasn't currently using i.e. my phone charger, my ipod charger, my tv, my lights, etc. None of that was necessary to be charged since I wasn't using them at that time. But at night time, all my lights were on in my room until I remembered to shut them off and I forgot to unplug my camera (I wasn't using it). From now on, I'm going to start unplugging my chargers when I'm not using them since it's a waste of energy, as well as money.
