Twitter, Debts, Socks posted : 05/19/09 at 08:27am pst listening to:people online bantering away

I've started using twitter. It's a strange and wonderful site. I don't think I'm using it properly but reading the stupid, fun, magical and pointless things people post on it can be quite entertaining. I used to hate Twitter, the account I have now is actually a reactivated one. Last time I only had Twitter for a day but this time I'm going to try and keep it/remember to update. I'm not sure why but I am compelled to do so.

I've paid of some small portion of my debts today. It's a good start at least and I'm making some progress. I need to figure some things out and make long term plans for all this by the end of the week. I'm confident that it won't be a problem because I'm feeling incredibly determined at the moment.

I ordered some new shiny things online....

Helica rules too. No citation needed :)

 

Twitter is something of a double-edged sword for me. It'd be great to be able to write whatever bizarre philosophical thoughts hit my mind at any given moment, sharpen my wit, etc, get laughs and feedback out of others, and hear what they have to offer. On the other hand, the amount of potential extra time it'd take away from my already fragile attention span seems daunting. At the moment, I'm more that happy with just updaing and viewing Facebook once every evening. But then again, other people don't always operate in the same way - there are times when we need reassurance, validation, support from our peers to deal with the pressures of daily life, and Twitter opens up just the portal you needed. At least that's what I seem to think...

 

+1 on the socks. Hopefully there'll be some Actual Use shots coming soon - #1 & #3 should be good ;)

Yes it's sockdreams. I buy too much from there hahaha.

twitter is technically just status updates but it's really entertaining watching and being involved in some of the conversations that updates spark up. Not that many people follow me. Only one of my irl friends will use it hehe. Join us :D

I've got a tumblr blog too. I've not started using it yet. I've been saving it for the right moment. I'm not sure what I want to write in it yet. I'd probably update it more often than I update here. I always forget to update here... too many beautiful photos to look at!!!
