♥ Valentine's History ♥

It all began because of one man
his name was Valentine
He wrote a letter before his death
to prove his love was divine
He fell in love with the jailors daughter
eventhough he was confined
At the end of his letter, he post scripted
"From your Valentine"

We celebrate on the 14th
to commemorate his death
The celebration of this day
became popular nonetheless
Valentines occupation was actually
a Roman catholic priest
The Romans decided to celebrate
this day with a chistianized feast

It was only declared around 498 A.D,
The Romans also celebrated with a
love pairing lottery
However there were different ways
to celebrate this day
In the middle ages England & France
celebrated by thinking of whom
they would marry.

Valentines greetings became popular
by the mother of Valentines
Her name is Esther Howland
who made cards and gifts
which intertwined.

Today, Valentines is very commercialised
Couples like to send gifts, cards and romantics
as a gesture or a nice surprise.

Facebook Friends or Stalkers?

Is Facebook an excuse for stalking others?

I have been thinking about this for a while now. 

Can people really describe who there friends who they are?

Do you really need over 1,000 friends to be viewing your life to feel better about yourself?

I understand some people are trying to become famous so they try to add people so they can be fans of theirs.

How do you know that the guy from New Zealand who is 15, is not a 50 year old man from London. 

The internet is not safe as it is but people think that things won't take place on Facebook. Some people have even got fired from their job just because they had one night out where they ended up half naked or drunk. 

But the real question is, 

Would you consider yourself as a stalker, just taking a peek at someone's profile, or just a distant friend you met once but want to know a bit more?

To be honest I used to love people adding me on Facebook, but now I get annoyed when a random random who has 1 mutual friend with someone I rarely know myself. 

My View On My Facebook Friends.

I have 645 friends on Facebook. When I first got Facebook, I just turned 18 and my sister told me it would be a good idea to have it to be social so I signed up.

After a year and a bit of having Facebook, I had 600-700 friends, I realised that people from my high school who generally didn't take notice of me so I deleted everyone who weren't valuable. I was very happy with those 300 people I had left.

Now it's the end of 2009, I have reached over 600 friends and I have realised that I yet again have a lot of people who are not valuable, some were my friends but we are now enemies and so on. 

However I told a few people my plans for 2009 Deletion, I got good and bad replies... some people said you need negative people in your life to motivate you. Others said I should do it, why keep people who give off bad energy.

Hmm I don't know what you think of it but I know I am going ahead with Deletion 2009!

My View On Chris Brown

In life we all make mistakes, I am sure you have done something you wish you hadn't done and you have got yourself into a complete mess where you can't get out of. Well think about how Chris Brown feels...


Today Chris Brown told his fans (via Twitter) that his album had been blacklisted from a store and customers who asked for the CD got told there were no more available. However, his album was in the back of the store in the storeroom. I think this is disgraceful as shouldn't Chris Brown's album Graffiti get the same attention as everyone else's. 
Chris Brown said that he loved his fans before deleting his twitter and he has been a trending topic for several hours.


I really hope that Chris Brown knows that his fans do believe him and that these haters can keep on hating because he has a long career ahead of him. 


All I say is good luck Chris Brown, the more haters you have the more your going to succeed to do better things.


What's your views on this blacklisted album affair?
Is it right for the stores to judge Chris Brown?

Joe McElderry wins Xfactor 2009.

I am not a big X Factor fan but my parents and many of my friends enjoy watching the show. I watched the final tonight though. 

Joe McElderry won the X Factor with 61% of the final vote against Olly Murs. Joe McElderry is an 18 year old, performing arts student from South Shields, UK. However Joe tried out for X Factor back in 2007 but only reached the boot camp stage. 


I am happy to see young talent across the UK, being able to sing and perform to over 20 million viewers and get really far. I hope that Joe does good in the states like Leona Lewis and Alexandra Burke.

Good Luck Joe.

Young Money Album Cover

To be honest I really like it for some reason. It's just different than having Lil Wayne standing in the middle and everyone surrounding him. I think it goes hard because you get a better view of the whole team which is good. I hope the album is as good as it looks. I can't wait for it to be released on 22nd of December 2009!

2012

[My Poetry]
So this is where it's going to end?
A date, a time of year, no one can prehend
It's just a myth or a typical mistake
How can you tell whether it's real or fake


God created this world for us to all live together
Jesus gave us his life so we could live here forever
So why would a particular date have a curse
Was this ever written in Gods book of words


There has been evidence which created this theory
But how do we know if we have read it clearly
The Mayans were the ones who created the pattern
To show us the days months and years and what may happen


But who's to say why there is no other variation
To that one piece of evidence of the mayans creation
No one has thought whether the Mayans didn't have time
To finish what they started and that is there sign


Many people are asking questions which cannot be answered
So many people are thinking there's going to be a disaster
Why can't we just see it as just another date of the year
Instead of it becoming a mental note due to fear


Live for today instead of thinking about what may happen years from tomorrow
Everyday is a blessing so don't live your life in sorrow
God knows what's going to happen so we can't predict 
Whether 2012 is going to end in a major earth human conflict.

What do you think of 2012?

Have you seen the movie? if so, what do you think of it?

This is gonna go down in history!

Since the VMA's Kanye West speech has been the talk of the online social sites. On Twitter people have made their own versions of Kanye's Speech. Now someone has created a Tshirt which you can order online. I believe this speech will go down in history. Kanye's got himself popular now whether it's good or bad press.

This picture has been all around twitter, so for anyone who hasn't seen it here it is =)

It's Just A Twitter Thing

www.wefollow.com

When I first signed up to Twitter back in March 2009, I wasn't sure what the big deal was about. However I have recently begun to investigate what Twitter is actually used for.

I was able to find a directory website called "www.wefollow.com". The site is useful for all Twitter members who are finding it hard to find people on Twitter. There are numerous links that you are able to click on to find the person/people you are looking for.

I think Twitter has helped me a lot recently and I am looking forward to finding more interesting people on there.

#HowDareYou

The other week I signed on to my twitter and thought great no one replies to my statuses. However I realized people's statuses started or ended with #HowDareYou... So I thought I'd check it out. The kind of things people write on that page is so funny, but some of the things said on there is so true. So if you ever sat up bored at early hours of the morning. Just get a twitter account and type in your own status starting or ending with #HowDareYou and click on the #HowDareYou part. Have fun. xxx
