Let me start off by saying that social media has taken over my life! I have recently started "tweeting." I just don't know if people really want to know what I am doing all the time... however, I am going to give it a trail run. So far I think I not only like it, I love it. Kinda like the Tim song... wow that was cheesy. Ok so to stick with the social media "thing" I have a bit of an issue with... the box or as I discovered on Twitter... the line. You know the one where you are supposed to describe yourself in 160 words or less! AHH!! Below is a post I started along time ago to discuss the particular box:
Facebook sometimes baffles me... it sometimes overwhelms me. Particularly some of its "elements." One that I have really struggled to grasp is the box under your profile picture. "Something about yourself." As if your entire profile doesn't sum that up for all those cyber stalkers. I took the plunge and wrote in the "box" last week. I have thought a alot about what could/should go there. I mean, how do you describe yourself in one sentence? I think if I were to fill in this box, it would say something like this...
Alley Elizabeth. Brown hair, brown eyed. Daughter. Sister. Friend. Niece. Jesus loving. Event coordinating. Camp Mac kid. Journal writing. Auburn citizen. Bridesmaid. Avid reader. Part-time blogger. Full-time blog stalker. Runner. Blackberry addicted. West Wing crazed. Lake loving. Missing the Gov. Snow skier. Pearl wearing. Platt, Keller, Nelson listener. J.Crew junkie. Memory verse training. Once upon a time deb. Owl alum. Milk drinker (2%). Lupton Crew Member. Naturally lazy. Biggest Loser sap. In love with Jackie O. Heart for the world. Comm grad. Jetta driving. Single. Blessed beyond words. Doodah missing. Pandora obsessed. God fearing. Co-worker. Daddy's girl. Life loving. Social Media dummy. Pioneer Woman wannabe.
