Livin' the life...

These days.. everyone is on some network, myspace, hi5, wayn, facebook, msn live spaces wow.. It's amazing.. well then again, that's not right, everyone, except me..

Just at the beginning of this week one of my friends directed me to hi5 and told me just to look around a bit.. so under her advice, I did.. My response? I was shocked at the amount of Bajan groups set up!

There were groups for UWI students, "bajan massive", "bajan msn messenger ppl" etc etc. I think the search returned 208 hits when I searched for "Barbados groups". That's ... crazy...! There're even groups titled Rihanna and... I've found one called The Lodge School of Barbados (BIG UPS to the Lodge peeps!! ).

As I did some browsing, I saw a couple people I knew, mostly old friends or class mates.. either from The Lodge School or UWI.

Anyway, it's good they're on.. and I guess it helps people to keep in contact.. However, if it's so good, why am I not on it? Don't I want to keep in contact with old peeps or link with new people?.. I do. but I.. just haven't found a network I like or.. am really drawn to!.. (ChristianVibes came close though.)

As I browse hi5, every now and then I see some leud pictures.. and I'm really shocked as to what people put up on their sites! On one girl's site, she's on a bed laying down with a tiny shorts a sports bra as a top. Now I mean.. really? Generally, girls on it dress OK (from the little I've seen) but a good set just dress skimpy, I wonder what's their answer to the "Looking to" profile question. *hint *hint.

One other thing that disappoints me about these sites is the POOr POOr graphic design of them. I mean.. gez, it's down right ugly.. And OK, I know that everyone doesn't have an eye for design but it's not only me that thinks this way.. many other sites (1, 2) express this feeling about myspace and the like.

Anyway, enough ranting.. I'll join something sooner or later, but for now, I'm happy with the forums I'm registered with and my blog. Whatever I join though, it will be "top-of-the-line", . Stay tuned!
