Social Media

{via google}

Wherever I go I see college aged {18-22} kids in grossed in their iPads, smartphones, iPods and whatever else network we have now. {I'm around this everyday!} I'm not saying I'm old {even though I didn't acknowledge my birthday this year.} But, the older I get, more "kids" are getting disconnected from reality/real life. Their "life" is behind a computer. Talking through a keyboard. Not interacting face to face with people. Yes, I know this is the way the future is going but it is INSANE! 

So, with that said, I am taking a break from social media. I'm not going to neglect my blog {even though I hardly post anything. I'm really trying to get better!} But I am going to quit Facebook and Twitter. I hardly tweet anything on twitter anyway. I usually read/see what everyone else is doing but rarely post unless the mood strikes me. {Maybe it's because Twitter isn't easily "accessible". I don't have an iPhone or an iPod where I can check these things every 5 minutes. I'm also not going to give up Pintrest. To me Pintrest is a place to put my ideas and designs. I've even deleted my Facebook and Twitter favorite buttons on my toolbar in Firefox. Out of sight out of mind, right?

So, hopefully I can keep from having the urge to check these things. I don't know how long I'll stay away {if I can} but I will let you know. A friend of mine said she deactivated her Facebook for a month and in all honesty, I didn't even know she had done that! So, even though I look at my News feed and Twitter Timeline everyday most of it doesn't even register.

See you all soon!

Celeb Gossip

What is it with celebrities, babies and cars? Recently Beyonce was seen in the back seat of a car holding her daughter, Blue Ivy!

This reminds me all too much of the Britney episode a few years ago with Sean Preston riding in the driver's seat with her.

Do they think they are actually keeping their babies safe? To me they just seem crazy! But it's whatever. They're the ones with all the money, right?

So WHAT! Wednesday

I'm linking up with Shannon again for So What! Wednesday.

So WHAT! if...

• I haven't blogged in a good while. I really don't think I have anything great to blog about. {I'm also thinking about deleting my blog but then I'd have to "favorite" all the blogs I read through Blogger.}
• I have 4 weeks until graduation and I haven't gotten my graduation announcements.
• I had a GREAT Spring Break but it wasn't long enough. {I wish we got 2 weeks for Spring Break.}
• I'm having a hard time getting an internship for the summer. People just DON'T get back to you like they should.

• I really want to see The Hunger Games but want to wait until I finish all of the books and until all of the movies are out. {I'm going to be waiting a while.} 

What are you saying So WHAT! to this week?

Silent Sunday

Birthday Girl!

Today I am the Big 2-7! This is freaking me out! I am 3 years to 30 and feel like I have accomplished NOTHING! This is my LAST semester of college and I am SO happy! Come May 7th I can finally "start" my life.

I have changed SO much in the past years and thought at 27 I would have 2 kids and be a Military Wife. Well, thankfully, {for the better} that has all changed! I'm excited, yet scared. for the future and always wonder if things will happen the way I'm wanting them to. But for now it's one day at a time and no more looking back.

To say I have crazy fun plans for tonight would be an overstatement. I have no plans for tonight {except homework and maybe dinner somewhere with the boy.} But, that is fine with me!

So WHAT! Wednesday

It's So WHAT! Wednesday over at Shannon's and I'm linking up!

So WHAT! if...

• I'm technically writing this on Thursday. {It's only 12:30. I can be 30 minutes late. No one will notice!}
• I don't want to turn 27 today! It just means I'm THAT MUCH closer to 30 and I have nothing figured out yet!
• I am dragging in school work. It's past the halfway point and I am ready for a break {even though it won't be a break. I have a paper due the Monday after Spring Break!}
• the first person to wish me Happy Birthday was one of my exes. We're still on good terms and talk as much as we can.
• I don't think the boy knows today's my birthday. That's okay with me considering I don't really want it to be my birthday. 
• I don't celebrate my birthday week. {But if my birthday lands on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday I celebrate ALL weekend!}
• Last week while at home I got absolutely NOTHING done school wise. {I can't help if that place makes me want to lay around and watch tv and cuddle with Buddy all day!}

So What! Wednesday

I'm linking up with Shannon for So What! Wednesday.

So What! if...

• when I'm at home I get nothing done and just want to watch tv and veg.
• I've had to be at home this whole week and rode the bus to school.
• I haven't started working on a project that I need to be.
• I'm probably going to this weather lecture thing on Saturday and even though I have no idea what to expect I'm kind of excited about it.
• I play the Storage Wars game on Facebook and want the mystery location not to expire.
• it feels like Spring when it should still be Winter {I'm not complaining!}

Valentine's Day

via Google

What can I say about Valentine's Day that everyone else hasn't said? Probably nothing. It's a day to show and tell loved ones how you feel about them {even though I think you should do this on a daily bases.} I call this holiday Hallmark Day or Happy Heart Day. I'm also not a big giver/receiver/doer on this holiday. Usually my mom gets me a big box of chocolate covered cherries, but that ended in high school. Boo! I've gotten the traditional roses and candy from boyfriends and such. Some we don't even mention the holiday and it's just another day. When I was single it was definitely just another day {not that being single and Valentine's Day means anything.}

This year will be the first Valentine's Day the boyfriend and I celebrate. I don't know why I think this one is any different than other ones with other boyfriends. {Maybe I'm expecting to much? Maybe it's because I haven't celebrated this holiday with a significant other in 3 years?} But, what have you, I think this one will be one for the record books {At least for mine!}

So to all 8 of my readers and whoever else {Single or Taken} Happy Valentine's Day!

I'll leave you with a fitting Bible verse and one of my new tattoos!
