So, recently I deleted my Twitter and Facebook. Everyone was like, "What, June why?!"
Well, here's the reason. Quite honestly, I believe it's a huge waste of time. I've always believed that, but I kept it cause it was fun and everyone had it so I felt like I should have it to. Well the past couple of weeks I realized it just made me depressed. I looked at people's "Happy Posts" and would always be like, "Why can't my life be like that? Why is their life so much better then mine?" And then I'd look at people's "Sad Posts" and it it would just make me feel sad and depressed for them and it brought me down. Whether it was my friends posts or a complete strangers. So that was one reaason. The second reason is, again, it's a waste of time. I mean I'm looking at posts about people loving food and "10 Ways To Know Your BF or GF is Cheating On YOU!!!" and it's pointless. It's fun to tweet friends and stuff but it's just a waste. Instead of staring at a screen for 3 hours, I could learn a new song on the flute, draw a picture, paint a portrait, or write a song. Do something that is productive and I enjoy doing. My reasons for deleting my Facebook are a little more personal so I won't post them.
But yeah, I'm not saying that social sites are bad, I'm just answering why I deleted mine and giving my honest, personal opinion.
