Just a lil rant before my anger fades away.
Social networking sites, is a lot of things, many of which i like.
But over-sharers piss me off!
I remember tweeting quite vehemently on the matter, but my points
were directed at the fact that perhaps, you not only have to deal with
a break-up, you have to see it plastered all over the interwebs.
One minute you are their profile picture, the next minute, its someone else.
you have to deal with facebook status like 'I have found love at last'
Tweet messages like, @soandso i love you till i die, and plenty heart-wrenching
truths or lies or have-no-clues.
What happened to privacy, decorum? considerations.
I honestly don't know how people handle these things, but for me..
even though separation was mutual and amicable, i wouldn't want to see what they
are up to next and see it plastered all over the world.
it obviously wont be enough to 'un-friend' them, or 'unfollow' as the case may be,
because hey..its the interwebs, you are interconnected with others, and you will still encounter
the persons on one level or another.
Yeah you know you have to deal with people moving on, but i'm sure it would be just as annoying
if you saw them everyday, saw ur -ex (i hate this term) every single day, and in your house, with this person
all over themselves, imagine! lol
Solutions, Get off the SNS? i think not, (maybe for some people, not for me at this point)
I just think people should quit over sharing jo, and try to be considerate of their fellow man, that can't be too hard abi?
Over and out.

Social Media is the Devil!
Err,..ok i just wanted to say, my week has been quite good. EVERYTHING didnt go as planned but pretty close. I guess its just about trying your best every minute of the day, being in the moment, understanding that ultimately the choice is really yours. My team made a headway in our project, having to tailor three concepts into one, with some help from our programme leaders, it went well.
After all that on tuesday, I went to attend a presentation by The Difference engine, http://www.thedifferenceengine.eu/ Six teams presented and i was most interested in
and the other ideas which will be wonderful to see how they all develop. It was a really nice time out, interacting with people other than the norm, plus there was food afterwards and wine! which i kept kicking back my throat like water. When my head started to swim, i knew it was time to let but not without taking off with three bottles of wine. I gave one to my friend though..i'm not that greedy.lol. Couldnt believe i was tipsy and going for a church cell group meeting. Never again, what a night!
My friend teased me that was in role-play costume, ok yeah i dressed up like this.
White shirt...check (better fitted though), Grey short skirt..check. No tie though, i had on TEAL tights, imagine people at the connect group arguing that it was GREEN. LOL!! Teal is my favorite colour at the moment though.
I felt fufilled as i chucked two bottles of wine (Red n White) in my fridge ^_^. But i had never felt as knackered as i did, and i slept almost immediately i got home at about 12am.
The next day, i woke up with a massive headache, alcohol really needs its limit. Managed to get out of bed about 9am, missing out on my first lecture.lol, not really a lecture though..but i had planned to make it. But i got ready to attend the one at 11am, a lecture about Branding by 'N' Royle. it was an OK lecture. Then got to talk with Irini, the PHD. it was rewarding and i left with a better understanding on what i have to do concerning my proposed Phd leanings.
Managed to encounter a rude person at my local fruit shop, smh! got the bag i ordered from Ebay, quite disappointed. erhm erhm, i postponed my cooking today, but did some cleaning. I gave myself a major fright thinking i had lost my phone and IDs..lol, so funny.
Its all good, now i have to do some work before bedtime 2:30am knacks... :), and i'm hoping i make the Twestival later today, it'd be nice to see the folk again..
AND >>>>>> ^_^ i need help!
