The Social Network

What's the best lesson I'm going to take out of the Social Network movie?

I don't think I can pick just one, because there are MANY. For one . . . don't trust your friends. Sad I know, but you can't trust them, your best friends especially, and I've already learned THAT lesson the hard way. Secondly, if you have a great idea--run with it, invest in it, and watch it grow into a billion dollar company.

Its an amazing movie really, for someone who believes her mission in life is to become a creative entrepreneur--and you know, there aren't many or really any females who are entrepreneurs. I mean sure you have some that have stock in Wal-Mart, there's a few other woman who have had great ideas. But really, our top CEO's who started their companies aren't woman, they're men. I want to be the first woman who rises to the top, and i want it so very badly. I think I want it more than I've ever wanted anything else, a guy for one . . . and its more profitable for that matter.

I have so many ideas bouncing around my head, and a few of them i feel, "are the next big thing." There isn't much stopping me, okay maybe the fact that the most basic code i know is HTML and some java and CSS. Besides that--the only thing is me, i'm lazy and I procrastinate too much, but thats besides the point. Or is it?

Oh well.

I have my ideas and some coding basics, plus I can learn. I think this can be a piece of cake if I actually START.

Facebook: Deactivate or try to ignore?

Facebook is one of the worst addictions in the world! To think of all the people that sit idle on facebook, logged on picking their noses and waiting for something interesting to happen. Does anything interesting ever occur? Not really, maybe you get a notification or two, or five or what not. Still, its such a waste of time--and as the days wane on, i realize this and hate my self more. I hate being addicted to things, its like a drug . . . I'm already addicted to coffee, why add something else!?

So I'm going to abstain as hard as I can, hopefully blogging will help me. I'll think of other things to do as well, i have to sort out papers for my dad, thats one thing. Maybe i should try writing a novel, or figuring out how to design my room . . . or looking for a job. All sorts of stuff to do besides logging in and out, right?

Right. This will be easy as pie, as easy as tying my shoes...or baby sitting kids. The last one sounds about right, pulling out hair is bound to happen every few hours.
