Just a few days ago, I told myself I would want to get back on my blog and start blogging again, “properly” this time. One would say that the blogging trend is fading off nowadays because of new forms of popular social media like Facebook and Twitter. Our spontaneous thoughts, opinions and stories are shared on Facebook for example, and because of that, that is the very reason why we neglected our blogs, leaving it to collect dust. Well, that’s my theory on it.

And  in case you peeps didn’t know, I deactivated my Facebook! Oh yes I did! And it’s not the first time I’m doing it, I’ve done it a few times already. It’s just that I have a feeling this time round, it’s gonna last longer than my previous attempts. I’m only thinking of activating it back after my exams, somewhere around end of November.

I personally think fb is a distraction to me, especially when all the annoying comments and notifications constantly pops out on my iPhone & Blackberry every minute or every hour. Yes, I have two phones, and that just means, double the noise! Further more, I may have reason to believe that someone or more is stalking me, and frankly, I’m a little uncomfortable about this.

I also deactivated fb because I don’t want to see or hear certain things. Some things are better off not knowing, and it’s true. See no evil, hear no evil. Ta-da. You get the drift? I think it will only break my heart if I still left my fb on so I’m really glad I deactivated it.

It’s funny how right after deactivation, the whole world just starts pounding on my door step asking funny questions like:

“Hey, did you deactivate  your facebook?”

“What happen to you? Why did you deactivate your facebook?”

“What happen to your facebook? I can’t search you. I just send you a text, did you get it?”

and of course, the most epic one, by my sister, “Did you un-friend me?”  LOL =)

Well, I can assure you all, this is only temporary, I will be back. I’m just deactivating it so that I don’t get distracted and annoyed with all the “bs“ going around, and also to prove a point that I CAN SURVIVE WITHOUT FACEBOOK. I know people who check Facebook everyday, and would die and whine if they don’t have their “daily dosage” of Facebook. That my friend, is pathetic. Get a life!

PS – It’s been almost 6 days already without fb, and I’m feeling mighty fine. If you miss me, I’m still twitter-ing =)
