Hallelujah. I have now officially created a Facebook account. I am a dinosaur (extinct) no more.
(Actually, i had a FB acct with a Mr Bean profile pic a long time ago when i was more childish, but i lost interest in it)
So..
Those who know me will be surprised to discover that i don't have a single picture of myself on FB. Sorry, but i don't camwhore. :) And i don't take pictures often anymore, though i used to.
Anyway, about Facebook. Signing up was quite a harrowing experience for me. (You cannot send friend requests to strangers before the next four days, ...) And said stuff in bracket poses a big problem since the main reason why i created a Facebook account was to add someone in Bio Society as a friend, get the photos she took and ID them. It turned out that i didn't have to add her as a friend to view her pics, but still the album i was supposed to take charge of along with a few others is apparently non-existent.
I actually have always wanted to created a Facebook account, but was too lazy/emo over the December period to do anytihng, and when school reopened time was not on my side. I wanted to create an account only when i would be truly free for a day (or a few hours at least) but that would never happen, and i'm pressed for a deadline for the ID thing, so i had to create the account just now. It took me about an hour and a half to create a basic profile. And the notifications were very, very annoying. Every few minutes someone will send me a message or post on my wall, and an email comes in. So i had to delete my way through tens of emails. Then i spotted the 'edit settings' button, and lfe was made a little simpler, back to the way it used to be pre-Facebook (which was a few hours ago).
I still prefer this blog over the Facebook account for now, because blog posts allow me to type much longer and lets me prattle on and on in my own personal soliloquy. So there. As for Facebook... we'll see.
