sooooooo, my boyfriend asked me if i can see how many people check out my blog . i told him that i didnt want to know because i would probably feel pressured to produce some type of "greatness" . Nevertheless, that curiousity killed this cat ...it haunted me lol . sooooo, i got a "counter" .

i just wanna say a huge "THANKSSSSSSSSS !" to everyone that checks out my blog . i really appreciate it & dont be shy about feedback, good or bad ...its all interesting to me :)

October is BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH .

so many people are worried that they will get breast cancer because of a close member who had it before them . That fear is a legit one . However, early detection really saves lives ! Everyone thinks that breast cancer cannot happen to them . Let me tell you, it can and it is more common than you think .

Every day, i will put breast cancer facts &/or awareness tips :)

the anti-social social networks

scratching , fiening for a little red box in the right bottom corner of my screen . update , update , update . "new wall post" "someone tagged you in a photo" "new invite" the little "one" in the inbox ribbon above the feeds . i wanted it all . "@reneexcellence" , trending topics about nothingness , twitpics that patronize other people . the networking poison -_-

I decided to give up facebook and twitter for one week to focus more on God. After one week, i realized how fixated i am on these networking sites and how much of a distraction it can be at times . Even more so, i am aware of how these updates are affecting my psychological health . all i ever read is about "#3thingsaftersex" or negativity or people declaring what they hate about people ... or people trying to convince the world that they are secure with themselves . blah blah blah .

people dont understand how NEW technology is . The first portable cell phone was made in 1973 ... and it probably wasnt accessible to the public until years later. Hell, people were still sporting pagers until about the 90's. Similarily, the world wide web wasnt even created and distributed until the late 80's . WE HAVE NO IDEA how this stuff will affect us in the long run . making our relationships and social skills dependant on technology and internet is changing our psyche in ways that we cant even imagine . mark my words .

Of course technology is needed to get things done at a faster rate for business . but why do we depend so heavily on gizmos and gadgets to help us build relationships with friends, family, and significant others. Are we that busy, that shy, that cowardly, that anti-social that we cant talk to these people face-to-face for a personable experience ? hmm .
