<p>No comment. : ] if you really want to know, you’ll have to do some research. Is it worth it? no. maybe you’ll do research and come to the conclusion that i didn’t have other screen names. or maybe you’ll find something. but at the end of the day, will it make a difference in your life or anyone else’s? no. goodbye.</p>
<p>well, that would be the wrong conclusion, because you definitely had 2 other screen names, that’s for sure.</p>
<p>btw, i love clueless. keep posting here my friend, you provide the lulz.</p>
<p>Well, sure, facebook can be a waste of time… But if people don’t have a facebook, they find other ways to waste time, like CC.</p>
<p>o__o I have facebook and CC… no wonder I have no time… noooo~~ xD</p>
<p>But I feel there is a huge difference. I waste time on facebook following up with friends an generally a nice person. But on CC, I just come to ■■■■■ xD</p>
<p>really mechrocket? lol i was actually going to leave. and find a life.</p>
<p>I actually agree that facebook adicts have no life. But cc isn’t much better clueless. Don’t get a facebook if u don’t want one, but seriously find something to do</p>
<p>haha i know. I’ve seen it. people will literally sit in their dorm room instead of going out when i’ve asked them. because they claimed they had “too much hw”. maybe if they get off effing facebook, they wouldn’t have too much hw, and they could go out. yeah cc isn’t much better. but its not that addicting. u can ask a question, get ur answer, and leave if u want.</p>
<p>Yeah most people I knew that did well definitely cut back on their facebook time. Its really not the best way yo get connected for academic purposes. Its a social site. But dude, pick up a sport or an instrument or something. Or you can read about politics and current events. That way despite your academic performance, you will be more informed than the myriad of politically apathetic people we have on campus. Do something meaningful with your time</p>
<p>
QFT (well it may be more agreement than truth)</p>
<p>The problem isn’t about a particular thing over another: if you deny yourself Facebook, you will waste your time on something else, and if you deny yourself that, you will find even more things to waste time on. Even if you denied yourself everything except studying, you can still waste time daydreaming.</p>
<p>The only real solution is to realize priorities and have a plan that ensures that you actually commit to them as much as possible. For me, this almost always involves studying in a group because good study partners won’t let each other lose focus. How do I meet them? By communication, and there is often a Facebook component.</p>
<p>Also, if you notice, the best of communicators in the real world all have Facebook. Some have thousands of “friends” others have more real-life friends than their (still respectable number of) FB friends. The main difference between them and the ineffective communicators is that they still use FB as an extremely useful tool, just that they don’t use it as much as their ineffective counterparts because some things can be better done with other methods (eg. meetup for lunch instead of FB chat).</p>
<p>^I don’t agree with the the first half of your post. I only use facebook 5 minutes a day. I spend my free time reading the news, reading a book, going out with my friends to play ball, playing guitar, ect. Depriving facebook doesn’t necessarily lead to wasting more time on another media outlet. </p>
<p>I communicated fine with my study group partners via e-mail. It’s more effective IMO; you don’t have stupid social clutter you do in facebook. FB in general is a social outlet, about social life, ect, whereas e-mail is a better outlet for academic life.</p>
<p>Yep. definitely agree with jimmihendrix lmao the name ahaha. anyway, when u meet someone in class and decide u want to study with them, ur bound to get their number and u have the simple option of texting or phone. i really want to get rid of my texting but it does come in handy when u have nothing to say on the phone but a 2 second comment that could easily be sent by text and read at their leisure. facebook for meeting up with people would just lead u to look at their pix, judge them more, etc.</p>
<p>Why are you so afraid of people judging you? What really constitutes ‘judging?’ Everyone has different perceptions of the people they meet every day. Everyone makes assumptions, and everyone has an impression of someone after they act or speak in a certain way. That’s just the way human interaction works. Everyone is judgmental. Sure, some people are, more than others, but everyone forms opinions about other people.</p>
<p>i’m paranoid.</p>

<p>it’s funny how your entire presence on this forum can be explained by 13 characters</p>
<p>Why do you care about what others think? Especially on this forum? No offence to them, but they’re just Berkeley students like you, not gods. screw them.</p>
<p>lol I don’t know. I just realized this recently but I’ve always kind of been put down by my family. Like even when I dress up and look nice, they put me down, especially my sibling. they do it out of their own insecureness but it started to affect me after 15 years of negative comments.</p>
<p>It’s a good thing CC doesn’t support reputation points.</p>
<p>If CC supported reputation points… nobody would have positive reputation. There’s always somebody who disagrees with your comment.</p>
<p>^^i disagree </p>
