"Lessons Learned"

From this activity I have gained some valuable information. One, I need to put down my phone and do more productive things in my life. Two, I need to use my computer more because it is a load of things that I didn't know that I could do, more than what my phone can. Technology is taking over and I need to use it to my advantage in life and not just for entertainment.
