GUESS WHO'S BACK!

So I'm about to download the facebook app and reactivate my account, something I've kind've been putting off for some reason. And, I've been trying to work out how to make my entrance back into the facebook world. What will my first post be and say? I think I've worked it out...I'm just gonna reactivate, pretend like nothing happened and see if anybody even noticed I was gone...

BEEN ON A BENDER!

Well if I hadn't fallen off the facebook wagon yet, I certainly have now.  I found myself on a social networking bender posting all kinds of randomness to whatever I could get my hands on!  I even signed up to tumblr and started posting to that!  I was like an old homeless guy at an all you can eat buffet...and I AM FULL!!!

If I'm to take anything away from this experience it's that facebook isn't necessarily all bad.  Many times it would've been the fastest and most effective way of contacting people.  In fact, there were times I didn't get a message through that would've easily been received had I used facebook.  My family back home will be happy to see me online I'm sure (well my mum at least).  But, I think it'll be my own self gratification that wins out the most.  Knowing that someone (other than the 18 Russians viewing my blog) will be reading my posts, sharing in my thoughts, and, in a way, participating in my life, will fill a small emptiness that has popped up here and there when I see or hear something amusing and a look around to find nobody to share it with.  If I don't have any real friends, then hey...at least I'll always have virtual ones! ; )

FALLING OFF THE FACEBOOK WAGON...

I was looking at Ali's phone yesterday and saw a facebook message from my mum asking if she'd arrived safely. I took the liberty of responding but realised afterwards that I just used facebook again! Does it count if it's not your account? And, I was just letting my mum know something important.  Have I fallen off the facebook wagon? And if so, do I bother getting back on? How long is this social experiment going to last? Did I fail? Maybe it's over...or maybe my resolve is solidifying and it's really only just beginning!

SLUMMING IT IN THE INSTAGRAM GHETTO!

I just uploaded some pics to instagram and it was a hundred per cent because I have no facebook! I even tried clicking the facebook share button...and yep, still not working! I then proceeded to scroll down, "liking" all of my friends photos. Kind'f sad. I do feel like I've gotten my fix though, to a degree.  I feel like a have pay tv (satisfying) but the sports channel isn't working right and there could just be a game on (unsatisfying)...
