So it’s nearly been a year since that faithful day that had me join the dreaded facebook community. Looking back on it now, I still have the same feelings toward the social network as I did before I joined. I still see no need for it. I already have a phone, which is my preferred form of communication second to actual face-to-face conversation. Then there’s email and msn messenger. Sure I can’t look/post pictures or videos but most of that can be done on this blog (and to be honest if I did we would probably have a lot more posts.) and it rightfully should be posted here.
Well the whole reason for this blog other than the fact that I’m bored on a Monday night is that I’ve decided to leave facebook. For this simple reason: there is no need for me to be on that network. I failed to get addicted, I did not re-connect with past classmates (because of my many refusals, it stems to more personal reasons that I won’t clog this blog with) and lastly it simply was a waste of my time. And not the kind of time wasting fun that video games offer.
Seeing how I did live up to the bet and the fact that Anthony, Jed, and myself more or less forgot the stipulations of the bet, I can leave facebook behind. So as of April 1st (fitting isn’t it?) I will de-activate my account with a smile on my face. This will be no April Fool’s day shenanigan, it’ll all be very real. Hopefully I’ll somehow muster up the motivation to blog on a more consistent basis.
