FaceBook... Good/Bad?

FaceBook.

Find me a teenager who has:

A) not heard of it

B) doesn't like it

C) tried it and thinks its boring and useless.

and I'll really find it amazing.

It's all about social networking, making friends, talking, chatting, interacting and finding out secrets!

There are pretty much 0% secrets when you're on FaceBook

Its really just a running commentary of your life... photos, applications; games, quizzes, graffiti walls, writing on friends' walls publicly, or starting a thread... it's so much fun isn't it!

FaceBook really isnt one of those sites where it's all unsafe. Because it's your choice to talk to people. Friend requests pouring in by the dozen, Facebook is a beautiful website that you can look back upon when you're 90.

And SERIOUSLY. I've had people tell me that 'oh well.... FaceBook......... hmmm... I don't think it's all that safe.'

What nonsense! If you're too lazy to get off your butt and go try something new, then stop rambling on and on and say so!

Facebook is by far one of the safest networking sites I have come across. I mean, it totally provides you the option of privacy (unless of course, you're a blabbermouth and accidentally post a public message about something thats not supposed to be posted public because you want it to be a secret. Believe me, it can happen.)

So when I first got on facebook, I'm like hmmm, there's SO much to do here (I was staring at my homepage at this point of time when I had no facebook friends, so you can imagine how interesting the content of the page I was looking at was.) And when I finally DID get some friends, I kinda sorta may have accidentally posted a HUGE piece of gossip on my wall =S

So you can imagine how many people considered coming after me with 90 calibre rifles. Basically, you really need to know what FaceBook is all about, before actually venturing into its dangerous consequences. (By danger I am referring to the action mentioned above which may result in ultimate kaput-ing-ness)

But at the end of the day, (week, month, year, decade, era, when we're 80 with no teeth, whatever)

It's like being at a party with everybody you know there! Come one come all, FACEBOOK'S ON!

Racist Attacks

These two words just never ever die, do they? RACIST ATTACKS.

Seriously, haven't we all gotten past this? It's pretty much something that we expected to find in some journal that some dead guy wrote three centuries ago (maybe not the attacks, just the bad treatment cuz i think those people were a little lazy for violence), but no. It's happening, right here, right now in the world we live in.

There are..what? Hundreds of countries in the world, and you're not welcome in them? That makes you feel pretty bad doesn't it, even if the people don't show it, just knowing they despise your presence makes you kind of sad inside. Of course, the macho people in the world go "Yeah? well i don't care if some random dude in some other random country don't like me there. I'll go if I want."

Thats what we probably do, but what happens? Sometimes, the "random dudes" decide to TELL YOU bluntly that they don't want you there. And there's pretty much nothing you can do about it. The combined wishes of a nation is what's being carried out when they express in actions of violence that people of one country belong in their own.

But really, whats the point having so many countries, states, territories, cities, towns and provinces when everyone is being blatantly instructed to keep away? I mean, whatever happened to the ol' "mix n mingle"?

It's sharing of culture, heritage and friendship mainly. Millions of us around the world, think of the wonderful number of friends we'd all have if we just learn the meaning of harmony and peace?

So I just wanted to reach out to as many of you as possible and say (a quote i really liked) "LOVE EVERYONE TO THE POINT WHERE THERE IS NO ONE LEFT TO LOVE AND THERE NO MORE LOVE LEFT IN YOU"

Thanks for reading this~!
