Cheers! Means a lot.

Yeah that was me! Thanks!

heyhey how ya been?

What a bleak bebo page...But wonderfully pretty photo

Dear Jesus, I absolutely loathed Cat's Eye! Could barely get through it. But that was several years ago so maybe my taste has matured - I hope so, cos there are five more Atwood books including Alias Grace on the list and it takes me ages to read something that feels like a chore... I'll read Cat's Eye again at the same time and maybe it'll make a better impression.

Right now I'm reading Captain Corelli's Mandolin by Louis de Bernieres and LOVING it. A.S. Byatt said that de Bernieres drew a line between Dickens and Evelyn Waugh, which I think is a pretty good alternative to "fuckin awesome." Sounds better at dinner parties, right?

Pamela is on the list, and so is Clarissa won't get to them for a while though since I'm going alphabetically... Here's the link, check it out

All over, I am now a real person!

They didn't really go all that wonderfully well, tbh. I had a couple of disasters. BUT I'm OK now, I'm over the post-exam depression, I've slighty adjusted my CAO, and I'm gonna get on with the rest of my life! Hurray!

I'm cleaning my room, making all sorts of plans - I'm gonna try proofreading online manga scans as a new hobby And I'm gonna start talking to everyone again - you won't be able to shut me up! Yes indeedy, it'll be a good summer.

How's you? Have some luv.

Your picture's adorable.

Get a Facebook, I'm never on this!! x

Kerri!

It has been far too long! How are things?

English paper 1 went well, but I freaked out and fucked up paper 2 really badly. I'm completely gutted, I was depending on a good English grade. I'm just trying not to let it get to me - if I pull it together for the rest of the exams all is not lost. Irish paper 1 today was a little more encouraging, and maths doesn't matter because I'm taking it at ordinary level and not counting it in my points. Paper 2 tomorrow is frightening.

That's my little update - I'll let you get back to slide tackling those blind orphans. Damn orphans... you show em what's what.

Thank you ... unless you were being sarcastic in which case :p

I envy your nearly-finishedness! But no way am I gonna be listless... I have a list as long as my arm of all the cool shit I'm going to do when these exams are done.

...Obviously, by cool shit I mean knitting projects.

Bitchin' knitting projects.

HIIIIIIIIIII!!!

I got into dramaaaaaaa!!!

Am I excited?! Hell yeah!! .. The points are really high with English though, so I'm totally going to put it down with German/French/Irish as well!!

HOW ARE YOU!? Good luck in exams.. they're a bitch.

The full quote is "What is straight? A line can be straight, or a street, but the human heart - oh no. It's curved like a road through mountains." Tennessee Williams. I just liked the quote - especially when I imagine Tennessee Williams saying it with a southern drawl.

We *are* using it... in our very lack of use.

In management theory lexicon, we are uncommitted actors in Bebo's change management strategy. They are attempting to shift the paradigm; we have chained ourselves to the forests of reason and insanity. We are standing in the way of a planetary, Burroughs-esque Control Con. IGNORE ALIEN ORDERS.

Definitive Bulletin:
We reject emphatically, as we reject nuclear war, any attempt at setting up a one-way telepathic link. Used correctly, software like Bebo could be the ultimate in resisting tyranny and control. A nascent global soul could begin here. But these... [ERROR: TEXT FIELD TOO LONG]

I love you too, darling.

One could theorise on our behaviour in a neo-Luddite perspective. Do we hate technology?
Conversely, are we so elitist in technological interactions that we have already transcended Bebo?

From a positive natural law perspective, there is no dominant political party compelling us to post and update our profiles. If we were to examine the social context from a natural law, there is a higher order suggesting we use the software to interact, but I would consider that to be purely aspiration. (Also the motives of the higher power are suspect. Us using it more makes advertising revenue for them. If we consider our actions as protest, this line of inquiry suddenly becomes revolutionary.)

Judging by our interaction or lack thereof, we have intentionally or unintentionally abstracted ourselves from the social strictures others have constructed. We are either so pro-social we reject this mode of communication as an irrelevance or so antisocial in this mode to our common man, we cannot even raise a finger to blast his retinas with points of light in greeting.

Perhaps we are rebelling against the prevailing norm of bad grammar and devalued emotion.
Perhaps, taken in the context of our interest in the existentialists and the Jesus and Mary Chain, we are more asocial than we believe ourselves to be.
Perhaps we wish we could but are unable to.
All are valid.

Smidgeon is a small unit of quantity.
Synonyms would be 'bit' or 'mite'.

One potential positive cause for our lack of upkeep could be our relative popularity in real life.
One could derive from the inference of our lack of Bebo activity a rich and fulfilling real-world social life.
More negatively, one could also posit that we are indifferent misanthropes who have found companionship in anomie and drift.

My play got shittered in the pisser!!! I'm sad. Apart from that I'm very happy. OOh Trinners!! Are u enjoyin English? I know generally what I want to do with my life but not college courses. Xox
