the one with the 101 in 1001

Out of lack of interesting thing to do with my life I’ve decided to do this 101 in 1001.  I’ve read this from a former follower in Twitter.  Take note of the use of “former follower” because I had to block him off the list because he’s one of the most jaded people in the whole world and that’s another story but I chose to write more of pleasant things today. 

 

I wasn’t really going to pursue this but when I started counting the days, starting with November 1^st of this year and it ends on my mom’s birthday on July 28, 2012.  So I took it as a sign and decided to continue with this so-called project.

 

I’m not actually quite sure if I can do this but I say everyone needs a little challenge.  So things in the list are relatively easy, some like me is crazy.  I’m not even sure if this can all be done in less than three years.  I’ve got some friends opinion as well.  Making up a list isn’t easy.  I’ve got to consider the chances or possibilities of attainment.  Being a certified obsessive-compulsive, this list won’t help me at all.

 

So, I’ll just make an update a year after or as soon as I have achieved one crazy thing from the list. 

 

If you’d like to check what I’m talking about it is displayed as a separate page of this blog and I’ll cross out the things that I’ve done once I have achieved them.

 

the one with the facebook quiz

Exploring facebook was really part of getting to know the social networking site.  I have to admit that there was a time that I really got hooked on the applications like the pet shops and other games.

People have different opinions on this, some find it amusing to take quizzes and follow on applications like a true avid fan while others get annoyed of receiving stuffs from random people they don’t even know.

I think we should just practice proper etiquette on social networking sites as well like those that we extend in our real social life besides the only difference between the two is one is virtual and one is actual.

Some of these are the following:

1. Don’t accept friend invites from those you don’t actual know if you don’t intend to know more about them
2. Send out invites to those who you think share the same interest
3. Avoid sharing too much information

Well there are a lot of dos and don’ts and I think I actually contradict the 3^rd tip that I have mentioned.  For one, I share information of myself in blog and networking sites.  I tend to over broadcast what I feel for my interest and for others to see.  It isn’t because I like the attention, yes I do at times but basically I just lose my self control more often than I should.

And proof of it was this quiz that I have recently made.  Here’s the link:

Well, I didn’t really intend to share too much information when I made this.  I just wanted to make friends laugh.  I just thought of being witty and insane that time.  I also wanted to know if my friends really know me by answering these questions.

Anyway, to date no one has scored above 65%.  My niece even got a 50% from the quiz and I find it really weird because my life is like an open book to many.  I know I share so many stories to people around me well actually to my close friends only.  So I am putting up a challenge to friends who will get at least 80% of the quiz, I have a special surprise for you.

Let’s see if there will be takers of this challenge.
