Merry (late) Christmas guys!!
I know it's the season to be jolly and all, but I feel like a good old fashioned rant.
I've been getting onto Facebook recently, expecting happiness statuses from all my contacts. It is the holidays, I'm allowed to have these expectations, right?
But while most of my contacts have their statuses that are positive and even funny at times, it's the other percentage that tend to overshare...... everything. And anything.
I'm proud to say I have a wide age range of Facebook friends, but most of them are teenagers. And when you have teenage Facebook friends, you generally tend to be more than exposed to bollocks half of the time.
With statuses from hipster skanks that want love and younger girls that want love, it's hard to stay away from all the bollocks. And when there's an update every 5 minutes about how lonely they are, or how they love kisses in the rain, it makes you die a little inside. And then you see their pictures of them in a bikini one day, and the next minute they have a rage fuelled status about how they are NOT a slut.
There is something terminally wrong with society.
I am not ashamed to admit that I have never had a boyfriend and I am not ashamed to admit that the idea of wearing a bikini is terrifying. But I am ashamed to admit that I am a part of this generation. The generation of hipsters, dubstep music and reality TV shows.
So it's practically hard sometimes to go on Facebook and see what people are doing with their lives. Because approximately 42% of my friends seem to spend theirs taking pictures of their lunch and selfies.
And another hard thing is staying away from Facebook altogether.
So if you post loads of selfies, pictures of your 'fat bikini body', pictures of your daily meals, statuses about how love sucks at the age of 13, too many love quote statuses, what you just did in the bathroom, statuses with more swearwords than a Gordon Ramsey cookbook, statuses spelt wrong or with too many smiley faces, statuses about all the drugs you did last night, videos of you covering a song when you and I both know you have no vocal chords, anything about One Direction or boy bands........ please expect a world of curses against you and your mustache from myself and users of Facebook that have self respect.
Sorry for the rant. It's the day when you HAVE to be positive, but I've got the mother of all colds and the chocolate I've got from Santa isn't making me feel better. So I'm being an utter Grinch and I hope you'll all forgive me.
And in light of the fact that I survived another non-existent apocalypse, I don't really have a valid reason to take out my frustrations on you all. So I (and the few people that are part of the V=MC squared team) hope you all had a wonderful, epic, uber mad and happy Christmas and New Year/Hannukah!!!!!
Live long and prosper, Vivmarie1407

AdSense Debate
你好 guys,
I was going through my blog settings and whatnot, and I saw something that struck a chord in my mind: "sign up for AdSense and make money from your blog".
Initially I was intrigued, who doesn't like to earn money?
At first I was eager to sign up, then I thought of none other than my dear viewers, yes you!, who probably don't want to click onto my blog and be swarmed with ads. The last thing I'd want you guys to go through, is to click onto my page and then BAM! You get swarmed with ads and thus, your day is less brighter.
On the other hand, it wouldn't be a bad thing to earn money. It's harder than it looks to operate a blog, write the posts and come up with ideas. So to earn something for the work I do seems fair, right?
But then again, I would like to become more successful first. I want to gain more subscribers, become more known and feel more satisfied with the posts I make. Until such time, there will probably be no ads.
If you guys have any reasons for/against signing up for AdSense, let me know, it would be greatly appreciated!!! As would any post ideas.
In other news, I saw the movie Rise Of The Guardians the other day (amazing), fell in love with James Bond after watching Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace so I would know what's going on when I go to see Skyfall and....... I have dyed my hair red!!! I hope you guys approve of the drastic yet worthwhile change!!
再見, Vivmarie1407

Horoscope Experiment Results, in breif..
Bella notte guys,
I'm not going to delve into specifics with the horoscope experiment results, due to some of the results matching exactly with some details of my personal life, which I shan't go into today, but here they are in breif:
The horoscope used in the experiment, turned out to be mostly accurate. While it never went into specifics, it provided concise thoughts and notions that were close to the actual events of my day.
While it has proven to me how things can vary in accuracy, it has also taught me that not all astrologers are quacks. Just the other 99.9% are quacky as compared to the 0.01% that get it right.
I won't live my life by the paths of the stars, that's just absurd. After this experiment, I no longer really care what the horoscope has to say. For while it may be close to the truth at times; have you ever heard of a word called 'coincidence'?
Instead, I'll live my life each day, as it comes. No amount of good or bad fortune warnings shall sway me off of the path I know to be right.
So don't let warnings of doom or shifts in the moon's stages affect your decisions in life. Accept that your day will suck simply because you're a Taurus in August, and move on. Continue living fearlessly.
I'm going to discontinue as I'm getting a bit preachy. But in other news, I'm on holidays for nearly 2 months (yay!!) and I pulled the muscles in my calves yesterday and I still can't walk!! That's my fascinating life so far... If you have any ideas for posts, would like to mention something about horoscopes or you have a cure for pulled calf muscles, please let me know in the comments below!!
