I have decided to not completely fast from facebook. I will limit myself to 15 minutes a day. I quickly realized, with the help of my roommates, that too many people do event invites and important messages on fb. So, I checked it, and GUESS WHAT?!?! TWO messages that I am so relived I didn't miss!!
So maybe fb is a little practical in some way.
Just me. Documenting the crazy twists and turns, the blessings and the sorrows, the ordinary and the extraordinary of my life.

Fasting.
No, no. Not from food. FROM FACEBOOK!!
I have decided, as of around 3 this afternoon, that I am not getting on the good ole fb until the grand ole end of the semester! woo hoo!! I decided that it was a big time-sucker and that it was becoming an area of sin for me because I lost all self control with the amount of time I was spending on it. I would fall into bed at night and fall asleep before my head even hit the pillow and then sleep through 2 or 3 snoozes to the point of missing my time for God. After convincing myself that I worked so hard all day every day, I quickly realized that at least 30 minutes to an hour of every day was spent on that darn thing. Therefore, I need to make a punishment for myself if I do get on fb between now and December 10th . . . what should it be?
Good news for y'all (if there is anyone out there reading this!!): I will probably be updating the good ole blog more often. woo hoo!!
Honestly, I feel a big relief at not having to fb it for the next few months. But we shall see if I make it!

Personality.
I just stopped studying Organic for a while and took a personality test.
The results I got said that I need to be "safe and secure to be happy."
That. Is. SO. Right. Crazy.
I am the type that when I hurt, I yell. When I am scared, I throw a fit. When I feel insecure in my surroundings, I snap shut like a clam.
I have found that I am most certainly an introvert but I vocalize all my thoughts and opinions to someone as a sounding board. I just need to talk through issues and daily life. And yet I am an introvert. Weird, right? There is no way on Earth I could live without talking to people ever again, but there is no way on this Earth that I could survive a lifetime without at least 3 hours of on-my-own time/day. And I'm not talking sleeping. It's like I have to organize my crazy thoughts so that they can be verbalized, then verbalize them so that they can be organized in a totally different way and then think about the new organization and come to a conclusion.
To bed to sleep on that.
