Data Log

As I started this assignment, I was skeptical about how much data I would create, especially on a day in which I was not particularly busy. However, I quickly realized that passively, just through receiving texts and emails, I was already creating a substantial amount of data. I also realized, after looking back on the data I created, that, while there was a lot of data I created, it would be easy to misinterpret some of the data and end up with a relatively inaccurate guess about how I spent my day.
