I'm sitting in my room and am having a crisis. Just a mini one today, but really, WHAT THE HECK AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE? Sheesh. Why didn't it dawn on me before a couple of days ago that don't really know what I want to do? Seems a little cruel that it happened after the add/drop day at university, so I may have taken a semester of useless things for the sake of nothing. But maybe I will stay in Education. Maybe I'll transfer to Sciences. Or maybe I will go start an Alpaca farm in the outskirts of Edmonton. Gah... I have never been one for making quick, decisive decisions.That was the first elipse of the whole paragraph. Congrats to me.

I really should start studying for finals but it hasn't hit me how close they are. There are too many distractions floating around on the internet such as downloading season 2 of Lost. Or reading the secrets on postsecret.com.

Or here's the biggie: FACEBOOK. The life-draining, stalker-esque, highly addictive way to keep connected with your friends. Yikes. You add people as your friends, and they are organized into networks based (usually) on university/college. You can leave a 'wall post' on a friend's wall, post pictures, notes, etcetc. Creepily, you can see what your friends are posting, what groups they join, who they have added as friends, see the changes they make to their status, interests ... ad nauseum. Everything shows up in the 'newsfeed' and you are left to wonder if you have any privacy, and did it really ever exist? Dispite this, I still am addicted.

This may be one of the many reasons I have not started to study.
Another would be writing this blog.
Okay, I'll go study.
