Good bye Facebook

Sep 06, 2012 23:54

I just deactivated my Facebook account. Today was a blue day. Just grumpy and frustrating which eventually turned into an almost apathetic state, where I'm at now. I don't care right now. Hopefully when I wake up in the morning I'll get over today. It's not just about my car breaking and not passing smog and not being able to finally put it in my ( Read more... )

I feel so much better without it. So far only my dad jessy and one friend have noticed (that I didn't tell). It's pretty funny. I think I would like it more if it was just my closest friends and family but it's so hard not to have half our graduating class as friends cuz I feel bad deleting or denying friend requests. and then I go on more often and get sucked into creeping on other peoples lives and dumb memes or photos or ecards. And then it isn't a way to really talk or keep in touch anymore. I've finally accepted that if people wanna talk to me they will work for it outside of fb. And if they dont, I shouldnt care. The only time that doesn't really work out is with extended family, but I'm going to work on emailing more hopefully. Oi. I have been using twitter more which isn't too bad, and it's more direct convos and finding news and stories that you care about so I'm rolling with that and instagram for pics, and here for just writing and talking to you. And whoever else stumbles back on livejournal.

ROCK THE LJ! chmpanesuprnova September 25 2012, 11:55:56 UTC

Yay for Heather and Kaila rocking the livejournal. I have been working on an entry for like a year now and every time i go to start it ..i don't post it.

so long facebook. good choice heath, i don't miss it at all. sometimes i think about it and i think about how many people use it as a cop out to get in touch with one another. i havn't talked to a lot of "friends" since i deleted mine...but were they really friends?

as far as feeling icky about yourself. i know that all too well. hey at least you have moved away from the pembroke/concord area and have a life outside of NH. i am still in the same town, doing basically nothing. if i told my highschool self that this is where i would be in 5 years she would not have believed me. BUT at the same time i do think about how lucky i am. no. i dont have a degree or a kick ass job. but i do have an apt, am supporting myself and making (hopefully) good decisions about my future. is this what being an adult is?

i dunno buddy. i do know i love and miss you! annnnd you can call me anytime :-

well, I got sucked back into Facebook, so that didn't last long. Two weeks. haha. I've noticed I don't check it as much as I used to. Pictures is what got me. I wanted to share chloe and dean's wedding photos and didn't have the patience to email them all to her. And mine and Joe's wedding photos, like the real edited ones are in a private album on facebook and I wanted to share those with the fam. My family was upset I disappeared from facebook lol. They are really active on there with their own family groups for each side and everything. I agree though, it helps weed out a lot of "friends" in your life. I deleted like 80 people, so that felt good. But there are def still people from high school or out here in San Diego that I'm friends with just to be nice. Oh Facebook and it's consuming effects on our society. I wish people would rock Instant Messenger again. Also, just because I'm in San Diego, doesn't mean I'm doing things with my life. I literally am doing nothing. I sit at home 95% of the time. It's really not any more exciting ( ... )
