I've never really been much of a Facebook user... A bit more lately, as it sometimes can be fun enough to see what people in your life is doing, mainly my younger sisters actually. Oh no, I'm not one of those stalking, overprotective older sisters, but when I'm missing them, it's nice to see they're still doing ok without me being there.
I've been thinking a bit about the purpose of facebook. A few weeks ago, I was sure that it was just a way to see if your friends were suddenly "free on the market"... About a week after Alex and me broke up, I set my status there to single, and it didn't take more than a few hours for the first person to ask if I was interested in something, which in itself is ok I guess. My problem was that I haven't talked to this guy for a year. Why am I suddenly interesting, just because I'm single? I mean, if he -really- was interested, shouldn't he want to keep me in his life, even if I was taken... But yeah ok, I know that most guys, or girls for that matter, at my age is not exactly as ready to settle down as much as I am.
And what do you do when you think you might have found the right one, or at least someone who -could- very well be the right one, and he might think the same, but maybe not? I had almost forgotten all the uncertinty it brings to not be in a relationship, even if you like someone, and he likes you, it's a lot of cat-and-mouse... But I'm not gonna turn this in to a Sex and the City blog about my lovelife... It was Facebook I was talking about.
Right now, one of the only applications I really use is the "Pet Society". It's just this small little game where you have a pet and then can get money by visiting friends, to buy clothes and furnitures. Kind of cute, kind of pointless, as so many things else. But it's kind of nice as well, at least from time to time. Doesn't take much to just feed your pet and give him a bath now and then.
That and the "what are you thinking about?"-thing. The thing is, that one is very much like Twitter... But ok, who doesn't like to tell what they're doing and thinking about -all the time-? I guess I must, since I got a blog... And a twitter... And update it on facebook... And messenger...
God, I'm a narcissist <.<
Well, we knew that already...
Edit:
Oh, and another thing I'm wondering about is the "You might know..." function.. I was just checking it going through everyone people think I might know... And sure, I knew some of them... There was a lot I didn't, and even more that I might know who is, but that I have never talked to. And then there's a few who I actually know, but don't really want to talk to. There are usually those people from your past. Different people belong in different times of your life, and to be honest, I don't care all that much for the people I worked 4 months with in Mc. Donalds, even though a lot of them were probably great friends and colleagues at the time. And there are some that I really -didn't- like, so why would I want to be friends with them on Facebook? I've never really been a huge fan of "let's add everyone we know so that it looks like we got 1945 friends, cause then people will think we're popular, and we'll feel better about ourself, yay"-deal... But sure, if it works for you. I have to admit that I have MANY people listed as friends in there, that I NEVER talk to, but it's mainly because I'm too polite to click no when people add me. Stupid really, but meh, to be honest, I don't really care who can see pictures of me from the last party I was at, or read that I'm currently thinking about my lack of money... Who cares anyway? I usually don't get drunk enough to do really stupid things anyway.
There are many more things I can talk about, regarding facebook, but I'll just save that for another day.

Rockstar
Wow, now my blog looks very... Dark... Maybe too dark :P I've just recently (read: yesterday) felt a need to make my life more... Rockstar :P Starting to wear my "leather" pants, white t-shirts with prints and red sunglasses! Just need some lenses so I can actually use the sunglasses :P When the sun start shining that is.
Now, this might sound a bit fake... That I "chose" what style I want... But really, don't we all? We always create usself, by the music we hear, the clothes we were, the people we see etc... I like creating myself, like changing my preferences from time to time... My closet is getting far too big because of that, yes, but sometimes, you just feel... boring, you know? And you need to do something new! I have that feeling very much right now.
Maybe it¨s because things have ended with Alex... We've been together for what, 2½ year or something, and I know it's not forever, but it still feels like a long time to me... I just need a few changes now, it's spring, it feels like it's time for a new chapter to start, and what better way to mark that than by buying some new clothes, dressing up and having fun? :P
I need a red lipstick btw... And some new wetlook pants, the ones I got are kind of broken... Can you say that about clothes?

Taking up the blog again...
So, I discovered I had a reader :O I pretty much stopped the blog since I didn't think anyone was reading it, but since someone is, I might take it up again :)
Also, hopefully, things will be a bit less confusing to me now, last time I wrote, I was having a slightly tough time, trying to figure out what to do about the fact that even though I loved my boyfriend dearly, we wanted to go in very different directions, him wanting to focuse on his music, and me wanting a serious, longterm relationship...
Last week, we, or well, mainly me, desided that it was probably best if we continued seperate ways, well, all the details are a longer story, it was sad cause I still care a great deal for him, and he for me, but I think it was the right thing, and we're both kind of happy now, still talking very well together and hopefully remaining close friends :)
So... Well yeah, as mentioned, I was kind of down at that time, so my blog turned out a bit gloomy... Hopefully it will be more cheerfull now ^^
I got a job at CAVI, Center for Advanced Visualisation and Interaction, doing... Different kinds of stuff, helping with projects and what ever they need :) It's really nice, friendly people, interesting work and all that, and pretty decent money ^^
Have to work all this weekend though, so will be busy, but it's ok, it will likely be interesting as well...
Well, this blog wasn't supposed to be a "I've done this and this"-kind of thing, it was supposed to be anout thoughts and... Stuff... So I'll see if I can return to that ^^
