The life of a soldier at a civilian university.

“First Post” and Facebook

Posted by officerincivvies on April 4, 2008

In the words of Dean Hum, “FIRST!”.

Anyways, this is my obvious first post on this blog, I do not know yet if I am just playing with WordPress or if I am actually going to blog.

The other day I decided to disable my Facebook account for a numerous amount of reasons, the biggest being that there is nothing that it gives me. I joined back in September of ‘06 to see what it was like, this was long before everyone who had access to the internet could join. Since then it has gone downhill specifically with the addition of applications. What amazes me is how offended people can get by what happens on that site. I know lots of people who take it is as something really offensive if you remove them as a friend, or others who get furious if you add others as friends. It is ridiculous. It has been Five days or so since I removed it and so far the only effects I have found from disabling my account is that I no longer receive a plethora of emails from the site telling me some person has sent me an invitation to some account.

That’s just my view on the Facebook, so now I have to go finish/start my 300 assignment, start studying for finals and get ready for California and who knows how long till BOTC since the military won’t know tell the Friday before.
