In society today it is very uncommon to meet someone who doesn't have a facebook, myyearbook, myspace, twitter, bebo, tagged or some other social network account. I myself have or have had an account with just about every social networking site possible. Its not so much that I like the idea of social networking online its more that when I come across some sort of list I feel the need to complete it. Weird I know, I joke with my friends that I have a finish it disorder : ) So one day I came across this list of social networking sites, I think it was on wikipedia.....thank you wikipedia! Anyways that how that got started. That happened a few years ago and since then social networking has blown up. I've deleted most of my account or let them be if I couldn't remember the passwords....which happens a lot. They say its safer to use a different password for everything that way if your hacked they don't have access to all your stuff. But anybody who joins that many sites and has that many passwords knows its almost impossible to have different passwords without keeping a list....but doesn't that defeat the purpose?
Ok....the point for this post.....I've narrowed it down to a few sites that I actually don't mind using. Some because I've set goals involving them....twitter....others because its just habbit....facebook....and others because I like to play the games....myyearbook! So whats the problem? All these sites are a joke. I don't even understand the point of it. Its not actually social networking if you don't really talk to anyone on there and most people don't. People use facebook to keep tabs on people without them knowing. If you think I'm kidding I'm not. I know a lot of people who just check out peoples profiles to see what they're up to. Not a huge deal if your actually friends and have a desire to talk to the person. Its bad when your just doing it to be nosey!
Then we have twitter. I never really understood the point really who needs to know what your doing every second of every day? If its that important can't you just text them? Don't have their phone number....theres probably a reason for that! Anyways....personally I think twitter has become like a spam site. You have so many people just posting all this crap linking back to other crap. I wish I could delete tweets from people who do that....I know, I know just unfriend them or whatever...I don't like to do that its mean. Am I the only person who seems to have this problem with the crap tweeting?
Now for the main reason I decided to post this. Myyearbook! I log into my myyearbook account just about everyday to play the games. I like them because they have this causes button and the lunch money you earn playing games can be donated using this causes part. You can pick and choose the cause you want to help. Like it might be $78 per inch of blanket to help the homeless or $1,000 per sq. ft of rainforest saved. It makes me feel like I'm doing something good....whether its really helping or not I'm not totally positive. Obviously logging in you go through the home page. Well on the home page of myyearbook they have an area that shows you updates from people in your area...like new pictures posted and stuff. You have no idea how many pictures are of crap that shouldn't be posted on the internet. Girls post pictures of just their chests, or of themselves in thongs, or their underwear. Come on if I wanted to see that I'm pretty sure theres like a million porn sites on here. Have some respect for yourself! You don't need to show the entire world what your cleavage or your underwear looks like! They call them private parts for a reason....in case you haven't figured it out that reason is that they're PRIVATE! COVER THAT CRAP UP AND KEEP THE PICTURES OFF THE INTERNET!
Life is what you make it! You have to take the good with the bad and know that everything happens for a reason. I'm a real young adult and I live in the real world! Let me tell you a little about what I think of it!

Zodiac Signs
I'm not really into reading the daily horoscopes that are found in the paper or magazines. I think they are a bunch of crap. I mean seriously I could write them up too.......This month will bring a lot of emotion for the pisces. New relationships will be ablaze while old relationships burn out. Be careful who you let get to close, for the trusting nature of the pisces will be put to a test when that cute stranger catches your eye. With the emotional roller coaster this month will bring the pisces woman is in for the ride of her life......Okay I said I could right one not that I was very good at it. : ) My point is they could write that stuff about anyone and then you go out thinking this stuff is going to happen. Did it ever occur to anyone that if by chance your horoscope for the day or month is right on its because you read it and kept it in the back of your mind therefore changing the way you went about doing things in order to make it come true?
Now that we know I don't believe in the daily or monthly horoscopes lets jump to astrology in general. I am a very firm believer that you fit into your zodiac sign perfectly. Everyone was born on a specific day for a reason. I know, I know.....DUH! But seriously think about it. Have you every done your research about your zodiac sign and your birth chart? If you have you should know exactly what I'm talking about when I tell you that every day makes a difference.
So you have your zodiac sign...me I'm a pisces born on the 20th which puts me on the cusp. For those of you that aren't into astrology that means that I was born on the last day in the pisces sign. The 21st switches it to aries and because I was born the day before its very likely that I posses traits of that sign as well. So those of you born on the cusp makes sure you check out your sign and the sign right before or after. Each zodiac sign will give you a general idea of what a person born under that sign should be like. Pisces people were very emotional, sensitive, creative, kind, intuitive, weak willed. We're also the dreamers of the bunch. We see things the way we want to see them...through rose colored glasses most would say. We like to dream and tend to live in our own world instead of the real world.
A lot of people tend to think this is a bunch of crap because a lot of different people could fit into the description I just gave you, not just pisces people. I'm not going to lie I'm sure you're right. You could be born in November, probably making you a scorpio, read about the pisces and be like yeah I fit into this too! Sure some traits are seen among a bunch of the signs...such a being sensitive. But when you really get into it you learn that not only do you have to take your zodiac sign into account you also have to look at what kind of sign you are. Are you a water, earth, air or fire sign? Being a scorpio reading a pisces horoscope of course you would relate to the sensitive nature. You too are a water sign making you sensitive as well just not to the degree of the pisces.
So we're looking at the zodiac sign and what kind of sign you are. Now you take your exact birthdate. Its time to create your birth chart! Like I said before the general description of your sign should fit you which is kind of neat I think but for the sake of this blog lets say you aren't a believer. Sure your description fits you but so does 2 or 3 of the other sign descriptions. That can all be explained when you look at where the planets where on the day you were born. On each day of the year the planets can change into a different sign. So while you might be a scorpio when you look at the day you were born you could have Mercury in Capricorn, Venus in Aries, Jupiter in Pisces, Neptune in Libra and so on. Get what I'm saying? Each of the planets where in a certain sign on the day you were born and all that comes into play when describing you as a person. If you take the time to look it up you will see it should be pretty right on in describing the kind of person you are.
Me I'm a pisces! The two fish constantly swimming in opposite directions. Pisces people are often confused people. We have an extremely hard time making up our minds because we're constantly being pulled in two different directions. Makes sense right with the fish as our sign! We're very generous, caring people which has a tendency to get us walked all over. We don't like to be criticized for our sensitivity runs deeper than any other sign and even the smallest of remarks can hurt our feelings whether it was meant to or not. We also tend to take on the problems of everyone around us. We want to fix everything and make everyone feel happy because we can't stand to see people hurting. For myself this is all very true.
Being born on the 20th heres my birth chart.
Mercury was in pisces
Venus was in pisces
Mars was in Gemini
Jupiter was in Gemini
Saturn was in Capricorn
Uranus was in Capricorn
Neptune was in Capricorn
Pluto was in Scorpio
Moon was in Virgo
What does this all mean for me?
I'm intelligent but instead of relying on logic I tend to rely on instinct and intuition. I have an awesome memory. I have a tendencies to put my problems on those around me. I don't hold grudges and am a very forgiving person. I appreciate all that is beautiful and am very romantic. I'm very talkative and full of ideas but thats about as far as it goes. I like to talk about ideas and let others carry on with the actions. I know a little bit about a lot of things but can never really bring myself to concentrate on on subject. I make friends easily and am fairly easy to get along with. Determined to succeed and desiring of respect. Okay I'm sure you have a pretty good idea now what I'm talking about so I'm going to stop here because I can go on forever.
I myself believe whole heartedly that your zodiac sign is right on and can describe the kind of person you are in more detail than you can imagine. We all end up where we're supposed to be in the calendar which makes me believe even more that everything happens for a reason.
