According to Tess ...
a. she has become more and more addicted to her phone over
time
b. she doesn’t think she is addicted to technology
c. she avoids using her phone for things that are not necessary
Transcription
I think I first got a phone, yeah Christmas of 6th grade. All the sudden it's
like a lot of pressure around such a small thing. You have to be really
careful about, like what you say, what you do and who you text, and who
you invite when you post, what you like and what you comment. I think
technology is definitely addictive. When I first got a phone, I knew what I
was doing all the time, you know, like I always had an intention, but all the
time now I find myself eating breakfast and unlock myself and I scroll
through things and I'm like, “I am not even interested in what's going on
here right now; I was on here two minutes ago.”

walking around who is actually there.

I have been finding I'm missing out on just being present [online]. I was
actually thinking about it this morning about like what would happen if I
just like deleted these things, and I was thinking about it and I was like,
“Nothing would really happen.” It's kind of like a fear of missing out.

“Wow, that was me for like the first 10 years of my life. Why couldn't it have
lasted so much longer?
