Talking
about making your dreams a reality, my cousin just finished a series of “Facebooked:
the Musical” play. He was sort of the artistic director of the said play
showcasing pure Cebuano talents. It was indeed a very nice musical play. It is
very original, the songs they composed are just plainly awesome that I sing
some of them at home and of course, the play centers around FACEBOOK. Just like
LOVE, Facebook is a very profound word. For the life of me, I cant put any
words that best describes this social networking site. It is all over. I just
can’t imagine meeting someone without a Facebook. It’s like a disgrace if you don’t
own any profile in this site. And mind you, my dad has his profile… which is of
course being opened and managed by my mom. He doesn’t do Facebook but he has an
account. See my point? And oh, it is noteworthy that those titos and titas I’ve
known when I was still a mere child are on my friend list too. Oh well, I can
talk about Facebook for hours- the transformation, how I started, what it had
done to me and to my friends… oh well everything and it may not still be enough
because just like the intricacies of the word LOVE, Facebook is as intricate as
it can be.
I
have a love-hate relationship with Facebook. Just like a perfect brew of
caffeine it is downright addicting. I wanted to scroll and scroll and check and
check even when there is nothing important to check. I wanted to check if the
area I go to has Wi-Fi and I would instantly go to Facebook. I like Facebook
but you see, I hate it too. It is really a waste of time. It is indeed a waste
of time. I cant imagine I threw my Saturday away facing my phone browsing
through Facebook. I am ridiculous and I admit that but I like Facebook. I mean
Facebook has been there for ages and it indeed connects people but sometimes we
get too tied with it and we lose time in return.
I
wanna be a better person. Instead of looking at my own profile (that’s what I
do most of the time when I am in logged in to FB) or other people’s profile, I
must limit myself. There is a world out there. How I wish I can just deactivate
my Facebook. Because most of the time, I feel like FB is just a show. And it
promotes envy, or you tend to post things that will look as if your life is
fabulous when its really not! (ha! Reality bites). How I wish I’d post less
stuff and how I’d wish I can do more than just FB.
I
wanna be a better person so for now on, I will linger on more helpful stuff
instead of FB. I will blog more and express myself more through writing. I will
research more helpful articles and read more instead of Facebooking. I will IG
more when I need to post pics. I will get a life and FB less.
From
this day on, I will try my best to limit Facebook for not more than 5 hours in
a week. I will keep a mental tracker. I like how I try to improve myself. LOL
And I know I can pull this off!
