If Facebook were graded, I'd get an A+++


It's all decked out, pretty, and organized. And funny. Funny according to my personal sense of humor. The applications are used regularly, and the ones that aren't but I still want to keep, are under the lines that say "Show more profile boxes". I have pictures up, not all of them and not any to show off my cat or my boyfriend like some people do, but that's not my style anyway. I comment on people's pictures whenever I remember to, because I figure that's why people put them up anyway: to show. Wall posts are a good way to get my attention. My messages are replied to in order of importance, and I keep in touch with people that I never would have heard from again otherwise. I play games on it; Mahjong is a favorite, and I also have a baby whose diaper I have to change, etc. I quote the DL, Gordon B. Hinckley, and Calvin & Hobbes. My profile is seasonal. I put up something related on it for every major holiday. Christmas had Christmas trees, Thanksgiving had a gratitude list, Easter has a Facebook egg hunt. I poke a few persons, but I superpoke many more. I've narrowed down my list of groups from 110 to 55. Two of my friends are people's pets; 3 friends are fake profiles; and 3 people I've never met before in my life and probably never will either. Half of all of them don't talk to me - haven't seen me in years - and the rest at least wish me a happy birthday every year on my wall.
Overall, facebook.com makes up around 98% percent of my "social life" (if you can even call it that) and that's why I'm taking a week long break from it. It's about time! :)
