"She's like a Leeming"

[walkwithheroes]

After much thought I got myself a Facebook. Under Nichole Bellow, of course. I've pretty much found everyone I have ever met. It's slightly creepy, because it's like, now I can find anyone - anywhere. But - I only have nine friends. I'm a bit unsure of the Facebook rules of friending. Do I randomly friend people I went to school with for eight years? The kids I was in AP with for four years? That guy I grew up with? My ex-cousin via marriage? Random people? It just seems a bit odd. The friending people for whatever reason. And, can you deny people you don't feel like friending?




In other news - I have a Biology test on Thursday and than finals next week. After that - I am free until the second to last week of August. Yes! I'm planning a short vay-kay - somewhere. I need a break from everyone and everything here. I just cannot decide on where to go. I want somewhere relatively cheap, but also somewhere I've never been before. Does anyone hae suggestions? Of course, I'm staying in the states. I looked on the travel sites, and it's oddly cheaper to travel to New York than  Memphis, where my sister lives. Yes, I could stay in a 3.7 star hotel, a block away from Broadway, plus have round trip air fair for $911.00, but to travel to Memphis and stay at a 3.0 star hotel - it's $1120. Go figure!



My new and oh-so-shiny phone comes in tomorrow night. It's all blue and shiny.  And it slides up and to the side. And has music and internet and video. :) It's fun.

If you haven't heard, Facebook is a stalker's dream ^^"
In any case, because it alerts everyone and their mom about everything you do there, it's probably best to friend only people you are close to :)

I noticed that it was a stalker's playground. To be perfectly honest, I don't plan to do much with the Facebook. Just the random "Today I -" posts and random thoughts now and again. It's a bit like my Myspace. I'm open to friending anyone - just don't expect me to write or do much on it.

Haha, oh Facebook.

I'm 22 and somehow a girl that I was in 1st grade with (when I was 6!!) found me and friended me. DUDE, how did she even find me? I don't even remember my teachers names back then, let alone some random classmate I never talked to.

Yeah it's a stalkers dream and I do suggest friending only the people whom you want to know everything about your life. Because I can see everything about everyones life on my daily feed and vice versa.

But it can become like addictive crack, especially when you have it on your iphone, like I do.

I guess she looked up your name? Maybe she just went through the yearbook or class photo? That is a bit odd, but people seem to love having hundreds of friends on MySpace.


What I write is very impersonal, actually. I don't care who sees it.

Facebook is...interesting. I have some family members friended, a couple people I went to high school with, my bff, work friends, some online friends, etc. I started out looking to connect with people from school cause, like you, I wasn't really sure who to friend. But it's kinda fun once you get used to it.

Ooooh @ a new phone. :) :)

It's not bad - a good way to quickly get in touch with several people at once.


Yeah, I love my new phone. It's a Pantech. I love that it slides up and to the right.

Agreed, it does come in handy at times.

I'm not due to upgrade my phone until November and I'm already wondering what I'll upgrade to. :/ I've had the LG EnV for awhile now and I'm spoiled entirely from using it.

I'm glad I d id the upgrade. I had a razor and hated it.

Having a better phone than the one you hated is always kick ass. :D
