blog blog blog

I have to say that I really enjoyed this part of the class.... this is my first blog and I actual enjoyed it for the most part and it might be something that i might keep doing as long as I have no time lines to have it done by this time!!! OR I get and earlier start on it!!!! I also enjoyed reading about other peoples opinions on all the different topics.....

Enjoy the Holidays people and see you all at exam time.

Awake

Actaully my daughter is still awake with me right now sitting on my lap playing with her toys .... so these last two blogs might be extremley short...... and I only have five mintues left so that is 2 1/2 minutes left per blog.......
IF I could just go one day without one person saying did u see that photo of so and so on facebook or did you hear so and so broke up again..... So usually to make my curiousity happy I have to check facebook the next chance that I get to check out the picture of so and so at the last huge rager i missed .... and about the couple that broke up ..... ya well they do it once a week end their facebook relationship status ..... and it is getting kinda old now..... I guess some people just don't care if they spill all their juice for the whole world to see or at least their entire contact lists..... it still gives me another reason why facebook is just a little out of hand with all the information being posted.

Don't get me wrong I still use facebook

The funny thing about my facebook usage is not gone in a totally different direction. I am not on their chattin' it up with my friends and looking at all the ridiculous drunk pictures of them wishing I was at that party or maybe glad I wasn't there~ But now I have switched to using facebook as keeping in contact for work. My job involves a lot of communication with a lot of different families both living close by and not. When I first took on the task of communication with these families trying to get their children ready for kindergarten it was really hard to get a hold of them. Most of the time they weren't home or never answered their phone. They would answer my text messages but no one would actually pick up the phone when I tried to call. So finally I thought and thought and thought until my little brain could no longer think and more and I realized that all of my families were my contacts on facebook. So I started sending messages to them and they were responding like crazy.... now why didn't I think of this before.... Maybe because my daughter made me feel bad for always being on the computer....
Anyways now I have a group for my parents to communicate with me and other families and I have to do is post one message letting everyone know when and where we are going to meet and they all show up... of course there is dinner provided!!! It makes my job a lot easier because I don't have to chase them all down individually

Losing friends as I type....

Since I started writing this blog about social networking sites I have realized how crazy it once was... and I say "once" only because I can proudly say that I don't use facebook nearly half as much as I did in September. I cannot really say if it is because I would rather make fun of all the people who are addicted to crackberry or if I really find it to be totally useless to me. Don't get me wrong I still go on there to check my messages and such but I am not stuck in front of my computer for hours talking to people on there. Or maybe the real reason is because when I use facebook chat it messes up everytime and I get pissed off at it.... and close the page.... who really knows....? It doesn't matter as long as I am finding more useful things to do with my what used to be facebook time.. Then again maybe if I was tuned in to crackberry all the time I may have had these blogs done a lot sooner..... but hey I still have 29 minutes.....

I have to say that I really enjoy being not locked into the computer all the time .... I have to tell you something that happened to me last month..... I was working on homework (typing something on the computer, I promise I was really working hard on some paper ) and my daughter was trying to get my attention for some reason I cannot exactly remember and I told her I was busy doing home work and her reply was ..... NO your NoT your just on facebook...... ((I really wasn't I was really doing homework I swear). I found it so funny. she is really to smart for me already.... SO anyways with a comment like that I had to stop doing my homework (really I was doing homework) and I got her whatever she wanted.... I think this was the real turning point of my facebook time and usage.
