I Love Google!...even though it's really creepy and smarter than me!!!

I love Google sooooo much!
I like the way I can link many accounts, like this blog account to my main google account.
It's pretty much the only search engine I use... I hate Bing so much!

This is how I view other search engines...
Yahoo: childish; for babies; only useful for finding titles of songs using lyrics you know
Bing: weird; thinks it's smarter than Google- it's not; too mature; complicated simpleness
DuckDuckGo: what is that?!
WolframAlpha: only useful for math and most times it's not even good at that
Other search engines that I do not know about: who cares?! they just aren't advertised enough I guess...

I love using google chrome because it remembers all my passwords so I don't have to!
Did anyone else find that last statement creepy??!

Google is too smart and I'm addicted to it!
  • I love that Google Chrome remembers my passwords for me, but at the same time that allows me to forget them and that's not good because I may not be on my computer and need to log in somewhere else...
  •  Auto-fill on Google Chrome has gotten too smart too! It not only remembers my name, address, phone number... it remembers my credit card number!!! you know why? because I allowed it to.
  • I hate the fact that I am allowing Google to think and remember so many things for me! It's spoiling me and making me lazy and dependent on it! 
So I have a question for you...
If you have a blogger account like mine, have you ever noticed how your account is able to tell you how many people have viewed your blog?

Well, today is the first day I really paid any attention to it. I think it is so creepy that this blog account can not only tell me how many times my page has been viewed, but where it was viewed, by what operating system it's viewed, and by which browser.
Oddly, my page has been viewed by people in Russia and Germany and it has been viewed a total of  115 times since I made it... For my page to have been viewed that many times I think it's weird that I only have like 3 comments- I must be boring lol! yes I am exaggerating...



The point of all of this is Google= too smart and creepy!!! Be careful what information you feed this knowledge hungry beast!!

It's Complicated...?

Well there's good news and there's bad news... Which would you like to hear 1st? I usually go for the bad news 1st and then the good news, so then the bad news won't be as bad... anyways that's enough of this useless introduction to today's blog...

Good News:
I found my half brother that my father had told me about all his life until he died.
How did I find him after all this time? Facebook!!! It's a lifesaver!
Ever since I messaged him on facebook and he gave me his number, we've been texting everyday .
I have never seen him before, well I have but I was like 1, anyways he said that if I come to Memphis for spring break instead of going to Panama I can see him and we can hang out!!!
I really want to go to Panama though...
Panama has beaches and warm weather.
Memphis has my long lost brother.
I think I might have to wait until the semester is over to visit him.  :)

Bad News:
He does not think that my father is his real father.
He says my father just took him in until he was adopted by his grandmother and "it's complicated..."

Quick Summary:
I found my brother on Facebook and I am really excited to meet him!

Well, on to another subject I guess...

I have started a diet!
My aunt has promised me cash money if I can lose 20 pounds by Easter.
My diet consists of:
  1. No drinks; water and juice only
  2. No eating after 9 pm
  3. No candy
  4. hopefully Zumba every Sunday
  5. Taking the stairs instead of the elevator most of the time  :)
  6. At least one fruit/ vegetable a day I hate healthy food  :(
Hopefully this is enough to help me lose the pounds... I actually had stopped drinking drinks like 3 weeks ago, but I think I should include it on here anyways because it really does make u lose a little weight- trust me I've stopped before and as soon as I had a relapse I gained all the weight I lost back...

AMAZiNg!

Did the title catch your attention? I hope so... I apologize; this post will not be what the title implies, but here it is anyway.

My Microsoft Word no longer works on my computer.
My English paper is due Friday and it's saved on my computer.
This is not good.

I like to shop.
I got a job so I could shop.
My job is stressful sometimes, especially when it's a game day.
Today is a game day.

I like Valentines Day a lot.
My Valentine waited til the last minute to go get my gift.
There was not much left for him to choose from.
I bought his gift a week in advance.
My gift from him was candy that I love.
I have plenty candy.
I wanted a giant stuffed animal, not candy.
I will run out of candy someday.
The gift will come in handy eventually.
I am hard to please and spoiled.

I get tired of being disappointed by the food at PCB.
Today I ate at Morrill.
The food was disappointing.
I ate ice cream.

My blog post looks like a poem.
My blog posts is in stanzas.
It does not rhyme.
Poetry does not have to rhyme.
This is not a poem.

I apologize if I bore you.
I have no choice.
This is what I feel like saying.
This is for a grade.
This is what's on my mind.
This blog is due in 5 minutes.
This is the end.

Living in a dorm

Living on campus has been an overall good experience; however, there have been some issues too. I like living in the dorms because I get to live close to people I know, and I can visit when I want. The first thing I hate about living in the dorms is how dirty the showers are. Most of the girls on my floor have long hair, and it always ends up in the showers on the floors and walls. They never pick up their hair! That's why my favorite shower flooded once.  :(  Also, the girls are icky because they use the restroom, and just walk out without washing their hands! Another horrible thing about living in the dorms is that we have to pay to do laundry. Every time I do laundry for me and my boyfriend I spend $15 or more, which is way too much because I wash pretty often. The worst thing of all is my neighbor. One of the girls that lives next to me always has a horrible odor. She stinks so bad that she funks up the entire hallway sometimes. I do not understand why her friends refuse to tell her that she smells bad. I would tell her, but I'm not really friends with her and I'm not sure how to tell her nicely. It would be different if I was her friend; it would be much easier to tell her without hurting her feelings too bad. I asked my mother and godmother how to tell her and they both said just pull her to the side and tell her, but that's not easy for me. I believe she smells so bad because she is extremely overweight, so she does not take showers as often nor as well. I often see her in the same clothes for 3 days or more; it's just terrible. I hope someone tells her soon because I don't know how much longer I can bare the stench before I have to hurt her feelings. I do understand that she is so obese that she can barely walk, let alone stand in the shower, but she's got to do something. Anyways I do like living in the dorms regardless of all the bad things, especially since my roommate never showed up and I have a double room all to myself.
