So it has been a while since my last post, due to studying and holiday travel and a broken computer. Even as I type this there are a million other things that I know I should be doing, but I felt the need to share my thoughts. However, due to the fact that my parents read this blog, somethings will have to be censored as there are subjects that one should never mention in front of two people who raised them.
This brings up an interesting point...if I am too embarrassed to mention something in front of my parents, should it really be uncensored in the public domain? When I logged onto Facebook this evening and read my news feed I learned something disturbing about one of my "Friends" regarding her personal tastes in certain activities. She had apparently joined a group that announced to the world said activities in a not so discreet fashion.
Herein lies a disadvantage to Facebook. I think it's a great tool for keeping in touch with others, but there are some things I just don't want to know about these people. Some things should not be made public to the outer reaches of one's social circle. It's not that I am a prude, if it were one of my closer friends telling me directly, I would accept listen and think that she obviously trusts me a great deal. I might still not like hearing it...but sometimes you just have to suck it up...so to speak. :)
