I know what of your activities i would have skip to have more time, but that is because i am 100% atheist. Do you have Mormon belief, since you are from Utah?
And more important question....do you play beauty or the beast?
Yes, I'm a Mormon, and the activities we do on weekdays are actually really awsome. Some of the funner ones are: Laser tag, climbing, cooking yummy food, swimming, boating, and a bunch of other awsome stuff!
And about Beauty and the Beast i'm a wolf so neither. I am proud not to be a girl or really ugly
EDIT: Wolves are not ugly, they are fast, sleek. and awsome
I respect the religious communities for this activities, as for the giving some people the reason and hope. Despite i lack faith in something more than me and people close to me.
And good luck for your wolf part, it has to be fun.

I know it is choice of every one of us, but people are so shocked when they hear that they cant "add" me, where and why they wanna add me, am i some sort of collectible? If they want speak to me, they know where to find me in person...
Well, I have one. I didn't think of all that when I created it in February or March 2008. Then after a couple of months (in September that year), I unactivated it, mainly because it frustrated me (for the record let's say it reflected my social life a bit too much, and I didn't really like my social life back then).
I eventually activated it again in November 2010, mainly because my friends had all more or less stopped using MSN, which used to be the main way to chat with each other.
On Facebook I cleaned up any sensible information, and I hardly write anything that that makes much sense. Just randomly babbling about my racing (running), and sometimes reacting to my mates messages, but that's about it. Almost setting about privacy is set on "highly private" or something like that. And even if everything there accidentally became accessible, I couldn't really care, as it's only public information anyway (google my name and you may find my results). The key is to never post or upload anything that could harm you in anyway if random people read it.
I'm more annoyed by the fact they have or would have "shadow profile" about people who've never registered on Facebook. When they read through email adresses they find personal datas (names, birth dates, etc.), and cross reading those intel, they manage to know about people, etc. |

Yeah,i think it is not dangerous to just have an account, but it is dangerous combined with some people stupidity, who has it like some virtual diary, screaming there their "opinions" and life facts. I dont get these people and never will, actually PCM Daily is only site where i am active and where i ever discovered something from my private life (so dont use it bad guys)
I like my social life being from face to face.
My friend is many years abroad for example? Cool, i dont need to know what he is doing there every day, i will just meet him i some years in the future from face to face and he will tell me how he was, we are not going to be less friends because of it...
Bad is , that this one big advertisment place got to the level when almost everyone around you has it and you are somewhat excluded fom the social real life activities agreed there, what a stupid paradox.

I have an account, but I don't add pictures (my avatar is a face palm-drawing) and I don't tell nothing about myself. I just use it for groups (filmclub and the band both have a "group" on facebook) and for chatting with people (because msn is dead) And I have 53 friends, only adding people I consider friends/family, no 1000 people I once saw
In the end, it's your choice how much you "reveal" to facebook, you just have to be a bit clever about it. |

Sweaty, that sounds good.
Talking about Facebook, I have an account, but I sincerely don't use it much. I don't like that much from Facebook, because everyone is an idiot always, writing bad stuff about each other all the time and everyone knows your personal life. |

I have facebook
I use it all the time
Post pictures and all sorts on it
am i worried? not at all
I've set up proper security, so only my friends can see certain things, and not even my friends can see everything. I only friend actual friends. Loads of groups and pages. Its awesome if used correctly.
I check my security settings every week, and even use a friends laptop to check what he can see to double check!
I dont think i could live without FB as i dont have phone numbers for most of my friends (which i need to get...)

Used in the correct way Facebook can be a really handy addition to the computer, but there are some really sick people out there who use it to terrorise innocent people.
On the news recently a Mother lost her child from drowning in the sea and some sicko posted on her wall pretending to be her dead daughter from the other side, now that is just sick. |

I use FB myself. I dont add to much stuff - I used it to chat with people, but since there is WhatsAPP(dont know if you know it - Text messaging app for phones) I barely use FB at all. I'm not that much interested in reading/ seeing ALL the things my friends feel the need to post there. But sometimes if you've done something nice it feels good to share it in an easy way with all your friends at the same time, especially when they live a bit furter away

Pretty much the reason why I have Fb too. Don't really use it other than random comments on people's posts but I still think it's a very handy tool in moderation.
My phone boots up once every blue moon and even then it's usually on flight mode haha... it's also super high-tech!
But seriously I don't understand the craze for getting a brand new touch screen iphone, ipod, and ipad every single year... Or, dare I say, a marginally updated successor in a video game franchise at full price (I'm called pcm2009fan for a reason, you know ) |

admittedly i went to a boarding school and things have to be more informal...

I am friends with my math teacher on FB and I asked if I could ask a math-related question to him at 11 in the evening last week and he was like "of course, love to see you doing your homework "
That's not allowed in the UK.
the drinking or FaceBook?
The being friends with teachers on Facebook.
I once came this close to having a romp in the hay with my former teacher
There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

Ive joined CrueTrue in the PCM.daily-admin-on-a-1year-work-placement group this week.
And no internet at home until next wednesday makes things a little boring at the moment! (Ive escaped to a handy 24/7 University study centre to get proper internet access)

What do you get to do during your placement?
At the moment, read lots of boring regulations and introductory stuff that is really just common sense.
It's at the Office of National Statistics. So you can probably guess from the name what sort of thing Ill be doing eventually!

Interestingly, since they moved to Wales quite a lot of people suspect they have getting the numbers wrong. So if you could fix that, then that would be good.
