It is amazingly easy these days to feel trapped and caught up in things that don’t matter. Sometimes it’s a case of where we practically lock our own doors from the outside. Fortunately, freedom doesn’t take much. For me, it was called the ‘deactivate’ button to my Facebook account.
Now I’ve got nothing against Facebook! I’m just tired of reading about people’s whining, seeing pictures of people I’d rather forget, and pictures of me that I don’t want up there. I’m not a paranoid teenager afraid my mom or boss will find pictures of me and a bong or me drunk at a party. I just don’t like any pictures of me up there. If I wanted a stupid picture of me when I was still blonde and in my ‘awkward’ phase, up on the web for everyone to see, I’d put one up there.
So, since I just wanted to rid myself of the nagging urge to update a status almost no one will read, photographic memories of graduation, and creepy stalkers, I simply deleted my account. The feeling of freedom I achieved was amazing, plus I had some redemption music playing :D
Plus I feel cooler without it.
Besides, if people need to reach me, they can do this revolutionary thing called ‘texting’. Or they can go back in technology a little and just email me. Plus, I have, technically, 3 other blogs (different blogs for different reasons!) so they can read about my life or email me through one of those.
I’m sure in a few months, I’ll make a new account so my college classmates can add me. Till then, I’ll enjoy the quiet. I’m not the biggest ‘people person’ anyways. I prefer to keep my real friends close.
Well. Short post today. I'm off to -seriously- work on that essay I've been harpin' about. I'll blog more either later or tomorrow!
Till then, I hope you found this video of Nicholas Cage freaking out as much as I did!
My favorite part is when he runs through the street screaming "I'M A VAMPIRE!" I do that too.
P.S. "Do you think if they DID feed the doves glitter, their poop would be prettier?"
