Fun things to do (when I should be studying)

I've been trying to blog for the past few days, but I've been so boring lately that I haven't had anything interesting to say! Good thing this isn't NaBloPoMo! If that were the case, my blog would be a total snoozefest! (Maybe it already is a snoozefest and people are just being nice by occasionally visiting!)

Anyhow, the story of my life recently has been studying, studying, studying. I slacked a bit last week, and now I've been trying to play catch up during this week. So far, so good, except I am bored to tears. So, I must admit, here and there I've been finding ways to amuse myself. I decided that I would write my blog all about those things, because maybe some of you need new (or old) ways to amuse yourselves.

1. Facebook. I'm a Facebook addict. But recently, I've become more amused by Facebook, and for two reasons.
*The first one being the "Pieces of Flair" application. If you don't have that application, I highly suggest it. What better way to amuse yourself then to send your friend a piece of Flair that says "I love you but if the zombies chase us I'm tripping you" or "Save Ferris!"? Or you'll be equally amused when a friend sends you a piece of flair that says "I heart Taco Bell" or one that is a picture of Tina Fey dressed as Sarah Palin with the words "I can see Russia from my house!" See, pure (stupid) humor.
*The second reason Facebook has been humoring me lately is the fact that you can go to your account settings, and if you go to Language settings, you can change your language to, I kid you not, Pirate English. Everyone should try that, even if for only five minutes. It's awesome. :)

2. Yahoo's Download Deals. You can download a bunch of different games and play for free as long as you don't mind ads popping up on occasion. I've already wasted plenty of time on computer games this week! Here's the link. http://videogames.yahoo.com/events/download-deals/download-deals/1209614

3. iTunes... and Limewire. I've been downloading crap music from the 80s, and loving every minute of it! I started downloading some New Kids on the Block, and then I downloaded some songs from my favorite 80s movies. Um, Flashdance anyone?

4. YouTube. I'm just going to post my recent three favorite videos. LOL One of them is about this horrible, horrible child. While I don't agree with physical violence towards children, this is one case where I'd be tempted to make an exception!

And of course, as I've been blogging this, I should be studying for a quiz.

Haha! I think I visit all the same sites you do. :D

It took some getting used to, but I think the new Facebook is better. I visit there way more than MySpace now.
