Today was the final day, and I'm sad to see it go by. I actually have learned a lot from trying this out, and I'm glad I did it. It had its ups and downs, mostly ups im proud to say though. I'm surprised how easy I coasted along with this. Everyone told me they were really impressed with my effort, but to anyone reading this, I strongly encourage you to try this. It teaches you that constantly communicating with others, (even if its fun), is not always the best choice. Its good to sit down, and be silent for a week, and watch how others interact with each other. It may be awkward explaining your actions occasionally, but that's reveled to be such a minor issue.
Hahaha, some unusual things I noticed on my final day was that I'd forgotten I could talk to teachers. It happened three times, I motioned for a pen and paper when talking to a a teacher, then said outloud "Wait, ahaha, I'm allowed to talk to you, wtf am I doing?"
This was my final day to not talk, but I will blog once more, so I can properly contrast the talking me, and the non talking me.
I'm excited to go to school and speak with everyone again, hope you all missed my lovely voice!
Slip ups: 2-3
