Cold Turkey
Okay, day three and now im really starting to feel it....
I know ive been acting all cool about not having facebook but today i nearly broke. Pathetic i know, its only been three days.. it just shows how much of my life i wasted on it.
There were a quite a few topics that facebook would be the solution to today:
1) wanting to see some pictures that were put up a couple of days ago.
2) uploading a really cute picture of my friend asleep.
3) trying to sort out what i was going to do this weekend without using up my texts.. (although.. i do have unlimited texts.. but still ).
4) the need to see this wall to wall conversation which sounded outrageous!
5) to tell all of 600 people who wouldn't really care that i had to play netball in the rain.
6) of course today was the day where i missed my facebook stalking sesh....
But i managed to control myself and i did not re en-state my account, i hope all two of you (min and katie) are vair proud of me ;)
Lovee you guyssss <3 <3

Did the gossip stop?
Well today was my first official day of life without facebook.
And when i told most of my school friends about deleting my facebook account they said ' but you wont know about peoples birthdays, or any new gossip.' well being the big gossip that i am sure that it would effect me a lot but it turns out that being in a school house you still find out as much gossip, and i even knew a few massive stories about the so called 'popular' before my friends that have facebook.
Not being on facebook for a whole day has made me realize how much i did use it, every time i picked up my phone i would try can check my facebook app i must have done it about 50 times. My house-mistress today said to me 'do you have a permanent attachment to your phone? and this was now when i no longer have facebook so that must be saying something..
So the lesson of today is no i didnt miss out on any gossip, and i know that my friends birthday is next sunday.. facebook didnt need to tell me that, but i still have a massvie addiction to my phone..

23rd January 2011
Well hi guys,
Around 1:00pm today I deleted my facebook account.... :o
Shocking I know, a teenage girl living in the world where mobile phones are a necessity, youtube is the 2nd biggest search engine, formspring is the new way to show you hate someone anonymously, tweeting is the way to help celebs get more attention and of course the biggest is facebook, the social networking site where you can publish your whole life to the world.
I had the sudden realisation that I was telling around 400 people pointless things like 'off to brighton with the girls' or 'finally finished my essay'. I really don't think that, that many people really care about my life that much that they need to know what I was doing every second of my day. Posting pictures is another thing blurred photos of me and my friends mucking around, yes im sure they would get some laughs from people who knew me quite well but over half my facebook friends wouldnt think twice about looking in my album full of a load of webcam photos or dressing up to look like total idiots. Well unless I was being facebook stalked, which I am pretty sure that everyone has stalked that hot guy who they really liked and gone though their profile pictures a few times or randomly hating that girl who he was always wall posting. I think facebook kind of came an obsession without me realizing, having an app on my phone made it worse, i was carrying facebook around with my everywhere where I went.
And the crazy thing is it took 10 minuets for my friend to text me saying 'HAVE YOU DELETED YOU FACEBOOK ACCOUNT????' someone else said to me 'But now you cant stalk ****** and *******!!! and i look like a twat talking to myself on my status, and you cant put up those photos from last night!' and then she said ' i find it scary how you would have no pics and no contact with people whos number you dont have'
I'm hoping that my life minus facebook will make me realize who my real friends are and see how much I can actually do in the time which I would have spent on facebook XD <3 xxxx
