DAY 9 - Social Media...#BEDM
Well I'm a self-diagnosed obsession with Pinterest. You can check out my boards HERE. It all started w/ one board of Black & Red things and it catapulted into a daily habit that I could get lost in for hours and hours. I love it...But it's so me. I was the girl with the posters all over her bedroom walls of the cute boys from 16 & Teen Bop magazine, I had the magazine cut-outs of dresses, I had the editorial photos that took my breath away and more all nestled away in trapper keepers galore. Pinterest has saved the lil space I have left in my apartment. I can virtually pin anything I want to my wall. =)
From Pinterest has spawned one of my favorite sites for a humor pick-me-up too. Pinterest Fails. I just love them.
Please don't hate me, but I don't fully grasp the whole Twitter idea. I use Twitter to let people know when I've exercised, when I've posted a new blog post, and then I'll tweet a news article or two that I find interesting or funny. That's it. Every time I see the 52 new tweets or 35 new tweets notification after I've only been on it for mere minutes I get overwhelmed. Mostly the "new" tweets are people replying to other people but I didn't know the original conversation so I'm like "What the hell are people talking about?" It gives me great aniexty and FOMO (Fear of missing out) when a reply to someone else is fun and interesting. Maybe I don't use it enough or need to get the hang of it. =/
Day #10 - Travel Dream #BEDM
My travel dream is Paris, France. I wish I had Dorothy's ruby red shoes and could click my heels and be there. I'm not exactly sure where my Paris dream came from, but I have such an awe for Paris, the French language, and all trimmings. It seems like such a dream.
*Shaking my Piggy Bank*
My best friend, Danielle and I have decided to go to Paris for our 30th birthdays. That's 2 & half years away. I think that's more than enough time to start saving up! When I break a dollar I put my change in my piggy bank, when I find loose change which somehow I ALWAYS do I put in there, and when I return my water bottles & soda bottles to the super market I've been asking for coins so it can start adding up.
I'm hoping this Paris truly becomes a reality. I'm really hoping! =)

Oh goodness Twitter used to be something I didn't get and didn't see the appeal of but now I FAR prefer it over FB. But it does take a long time gettting used to :)
ReplyDeleteI think Twitter is one of those things that you get obsessed with once you're used to it. Maybe, or maybe not - it's not for everyone and you certainly shouldn't worry that you are missing out on anything!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your saving for Paris, I'm sure you'll get there! :)

twitter is annoying me so i've been staying off of it for the most part. same with instagram!
ReplyDeleteDitto about twitter. Just don't get it. 4 people will see what you tweet, 1 might click and after a couple minutes your tweet is lost forever. Kinda useless to me. LOVE pinterest though, I love that things can roll on over indefinitely!
ReplyDeleteI have a pinterest addiction, too and I'm not that into twitter with the exception of tweeting about a blog post or promoting others. 2 years is plenty of time to get to Paris! If you really want it you will make it happen. :D
