So far i feel as though my Walden plan is bulletproof! I have watched tv for not one second since last class. With no Tv afterschool i feel like i have shifted in to study mode. My chemistry grade has gone from a C to an A with all the extra work i have put in. I am so much more focused with my grades and i have had star express open all week!

I ” must be a nonconformist” [Emerson] to complete this challenge or experiment. If i were to give up my rut, the outcome would not be good. I would watch my grades fall and parents get mad. The experiment of me challenging a rut is great. It has oppend my eyes to a whole new perspective. The perspective of a harvard bound student. I fell as though i can accomplish anything without tv.

Other people do not believe i will have success with giving up my rut. So far i have stayed true to my word. It has been super hard but it has worked. My friends do not think i really have accomplished giving up my rut but i know i have. I plan to keep it that way for a while.
