The first day was the hardest. I was used to checking the news and my friends' social media updates every few minutes, but now I did not know what to do with myself. I kept reaching for my pocket, for my smartphone that was not there. I felt lost and anxious, as if I had missed something of value. Very soon, time slowed down. The empty hours stretched out in front of me, and I felt disconnected from everyone and everything. (P39 L14)
第一天是最艰难的。我已经习惯了隔几分钟就翻翻新闻,浏览一下朋友们社交媒体的更新情况,可是现在我不知道自己该怎么办。我不断的伸手摸口袋,去掏那只并不在里面的手机。我感到迷惘、紧张,仿佛我丢失了什么宝贵的东西。很快,时间就慢了下来。空虚的时光在我面前拉长,我感觉和所有人、所有事都断了联系。

It was scary at first. Then somehow I began to feel free. The things that I had time for!

By the end of the week, I almost did not want to turn my phone back on. Those seven days have given me a great appreciation for life beyond the screen. Real life — and real relationships — are more important to me now. I cannot escape from the modern world, but I can cut back on the amount of time I spend on my smartphone every day, and I do. Life beyond smartphones is richer and more beautiful, and I am going to take advantage of it.
