My First "Entry"

        I am going to assume that since this class is centered around Facebook that it might be appropriate to write my first entry on just that. Recently, I have been dealing with the new phenomenon of Facebook addiction. I just can't get off. If I had to make a guess, I would say I spend about two to three hours DAILY on Facebook. This is precious time to me, especially this semester, with my difficult course load and the amount of hours I am spending at work each week. I know I'm not the only one who claims to be "addicted" to Facebook but I know for a fact that my situation has gotten just a tad out of control. Actually no, extremely out of control. Needless to say, I am no longer in denial.
        This morning, I set a new rule for myself; I am only allowed to check Facebook three times a day, which though that number seems like a lot, it is an extreme cutback for me. As of right now, I think that this goal is about 99% impossible, but I'm going to try. I no longer can spend more hours a day on Facebook than doing homework. I wont even get started on the physical side effects of Facebook withdraw, but I can guarantee to you that they do in face exist. If there is a God, please help me.
