I have done what I said I wouldn't. I re-immersed myself in Facebook. I originally got rid of it for many reasons, mostly because I was embarrassed about the ridiculous amount of information people could extract from my profile about my personal life. I hate how much time that people spend analyzing others' lives and not living their own. It is such a weird social phenomenon, but oh-so-human. Gossip, envy, it all comes so naturally to us, and I definitely think its worth it to fight our nature in those cases. Facebook makes all of that seem so much more acceptable. And then we have the crazies out there who use their statuses to update the uncaring world about how many times they have brushed their teeth that day. The worst part is that I am guilty of all the crap I make fun of. This is why it was deleted in the first place. I feel embarrassed. Anyway, its back. I just had to confess.
The blessing of this story is that at least it is easier to get in contact with friends back home.
