Friendlyness

On facebook people (including me) have been putting their status as "If you "like" this status, I will post on your wall something I like about you. Make this your status if you want a challenge.:" And others have posted thing similar to that but instead of something I like about you they will just post what they think of you. So in other words if they came through with what they posted as their status if someone they didn't like "liked" their status they would be 100% truthful. Now some of my friends posted that as their status and I came across a person that liked their status that I knew my friend had had bad experiences with. She is a pretty bold person and I figured she would speak her mind but she didn't she had written an entire paragraph about how cool they are and how they have always been best friends and crap like that. 
-This situation really got me thinking about the internet and how nice someone can be on the internet and they could be a totally different person in reality. Some people are scared to do things on the internet so they make up an entire lie.
-I was also thinking about how that could be the total opposite you could be so cruel on the internet and be an alter ego in reality. 
Me being me, I was watching Phineas and Ferb and it came to a commercial about internet safety and one of the things they mentioned was "If you wouldn't do it in person don't do it online" I think this goes for both situations. But i am going to relate it to the second one. If you are not going to be brave enough to face someone in person then you definitely shouldn't do it online. It makes you seem almost wimpish (oh and I know I haven't had the best track record with this). Like on formspring how you can comment on peoples profiles anonymously and ask them questions, which is the point of formspring. Unfortunately, people abuse this power and start hating on people like crazy! They are saying things I KNOW they would never say in person because they did it anonymously. 
Doing things on the internet is VERY dangerous so I try to avoid the whole drama concept online because it can really only lead to more drama, i kid you not. 
I think we should all definitely listen to Phineas and Ferb ;)


On a different note: I dropped my phone in the pool the other day and i put in rice and it has made an almost completely. everything works just fine except the fact that my phone can recognize my charger but it won't charge it! How unfortunate


On the plus side HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYRA PONKILLA I am going over to her house later to give her her presents then going to serve food at a wedding with Katti! 
Oh and my mom is getting her 2nd ultrasound today and we will find out for sure if it is a boy or girl.
