14 Signs You're Addicted To Facebook
vetazacatecas

When "facebooking" consumes more than half of your day, it's safe to admit, you're an addict. I myself am a social media addict, but what consumes most of my "social media" addiction is most definitely Facebook. Urban Dictionary describes facebooking as:

1. Verb: To waste time by browsing TheFaceBook.com.

Yeah, I spent all last night FaceBooking instead of writing my paper.

2. Verb: To check your Facebook profile, search for something on Facebook or use one of its many apps.

gancho: Dude, put your iPhone away.
make: Hold on a second. I'm facebooking something.
gancho: Don't ever use that as a verb again.

I know you Facebook addicts out there don't want to admit it, but you probably are a Facebook addict. Here are 14 ways to know for sure that you're a Facebook addict.


1. Scrolling through your news feed the second you wake up and the second before you fall asleep.

2. When you go to settings on your iPhone and "Facebook" takes up over 55 percent of your Battery Usage.

3. Spending all day sharing/reading/liking random post and articles on your news feed.

4. Learning all your news from the "Trending" sidebar.

5. Watching those cooking videos that look absolutely delicious and saying to yourself every time you're going to make it, but you end up being too lazy scrolling through Facebook all day.

6. You will never go 30 minutes without being active.

7. Anytime you're ever doing anything on your computer, the Facebook tab will always be open.

8. You have over 1,000 Facebook friends because you crave as many friends as possible.

9. You always are up to date on what everyone is doing because you never miss a post, you're always online.

10. Your friends and family will get mad at you because you will never pay attention to what they're saying. You're way too focused with what's on your Facebook news feed.

11. You spend way too much time just staring at your Facebook profile for no reason.

12. You find it interesting to stalk people on Facebook you knew from your childhood.

13. You automatically type in "Facebook.com" every time you open up your browser.

14. More than half of your Facebook friends aren't actually your real friends. Some you probably haven't even met or talked to before.

If these 14 things consume your life, its time to admit, you're a Facebook addict.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
