Only hours to go!

Who's excited?? I'm excited!!! The media fast is almost over and I couldn't have been happier by the way it went. I have been reading the bible this month more then I've ever read it my whole life (a little bit of an exaggeration). And I noticed that when I pay attention to it and don't have my phone as a distraction I can comprehend what the bible is telling me. I have learned a lot about myself and people around me and have had a lot of hard decisions to make. This has been a phenomenal experience and I am very thankful for Matt and that he gave us an opportunity to do this! I absolutely loved all of the support from my sponsors and friends, thank you all for praying for us. 

"I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me."

Matthew 25:40 

Almost done!

You guys we're almost done!!! I hope this has been a meaningful month for all of you, it has for me. I have learned a lot about myself and my values and I have learned to appreciate life and what it has to offer. I'd like to thank all of our sponsors for the support and prays it means a lot! Love you all :* 

Two weeks left!

I have to say that this weekend is going to be the hardest for me since it my birthday and I all I usually do is text. And since I can't, it's going to be hard not being able to connect with people. This past two week have gone by very fast and have been fairly easy. I have been very busy with all of my school work and swim so I didn't have time to even think about my phone. I would love to thank all of my sponsors and say that I really appreciate all of the prayers. 

The first week

This first week has been hard. However, I realized how much drama there is around me and how much easier life is without it. I'm starting to actually appreciate the media fast and think that it would be good for everyone at my school (and other schools) to do it. 

Thank you everyone that is praying for us, it means a lot. 

Love,

Dasha 

Personal goals

Some of my personal goals for the Media fast are to not text, and not being on my phone 24/7. It will be difficult, not being able to watch Netflix and not listening to my music.
