School's Starting Soon? Not in my mind.

All of my friends are gumming up my Facebook page with sentiments of excitement at going back to their respective campuses or (for the recent graduates from High School) going to their new home for the next 4 years. It's nice and all and I'm genuinely excited for those people since they're excited, but seriously please stop.
I'm not excited.

Look at this post that I snatched off of one of my friend's Facebook pages along with my response:


Who would be excited about leaving the warmth of their bed every morning just to go to a place where you might as well go back to sleep because waking up to listen to a lecture has the same effect as Ambien and Xanax being taken together. That's dangerous, especially after you realize that class is over and you can't even get up properly to move on to your next class without tripping on the overhead projector cord.

(I'm not saying that I know this from experience or anything...)

I'm even getting emails from my school all about how they're anticipating everyone's return to school for a "fun and productive year!" Let me stop you right there "school". You very well know how much you would rather be on vacation instead of teaching a room full of ignorant semi-adults, that's why we have so many of them throughout the school year. Uh-huh... I see what you're doing school... I'm soo onto you...

I've got my eye on you...
Now my mom's adding to the mix too. Constantly reminding me that school, for me, starts next week and that I should've been studying my past notes/paging through my new textbooks for the semester/going to sleep earlier. Even though, yes, these tidbits of advice from my mother are quite practical, let me tell you that nothing is going to keep me from living up my last days of vacation time right up until the end. And by living it up, I mean sitting in front of my laptop and either writing a future blog post, watching a Japanese Anime/ Korean Drama/random movies/random YouTube videos, listening to music, reading my whole pile of library books, or sleeping way over the recommended amount of hours recommended by doctors.

Otherwise, in spite of all of my efforts at attempting to make my summer (feel) longer, I realize that school will start soon, inevitably.

My solution: Right now I'm pretending that we're currently in the month of July. I've got one more month of vacation! In my mind...

And now... a video explaining why school sucks!

I did it! I did it! Hooray!

Based off of this title, I bet you're dying to know what I did, right? Well, keep reading! Duh.

If you didn't get to read the end of yesterday's post then I'll get you up to speed.

Yesterday I said that I was going to make a fan page on Facebook for all my "fans"

Oh yeah? Well I have half as many fans as Ryan Higa does! As you can see he only has four... I'll catch up to him in no time!
Annnnd... I did it! Yay! It was way simpler than I thought it was going to be and that is thanks to this article that I read all about how to go about making a fan page for your blog on Facebook. I was going to make a tutorial much like my tutorial about jump breaks, the Debbie way, but then I thought better of it because I was being lazy that would be kind of counter-productive and so on and besides, there's already a whole wealth of information on fan pages on the World Wide Web. So Google it!

Anyway, so after I made my fan page, (which I'm really proud of even though it's empty) I decided to make a like box. (Which if you have your own blog, you can find the link to putting your own like box on your own page here

It took me a while to figure out how to put the box on my blog, because of my limited knowledge of HTML, so I looked at this article and after it finally worked, let's just say I felt kind of like Dora the Explorer (I did it!! Woooooo!!) I've never felt so excited in my life (besides the time that I had gotten to ride in the front of Kingda Ka, but that's a story for another time ;D )

So, now my fan page is all set up and the like box/link to my fan page is going to located safely to the right of my page, unless I decide to change the layout of my blog in the future (who knows?). 

Soooo, all I can say now is just to check out my Facebook page! Because there I'll be posting stuff that doesn't need a whole blog post dedicated to it and it will act as a way to remind you guys (my fans) that I published new content and it will show up automatically on your news feed! Isn't that great??? 'Merica at its best!! (To other countries, who happen to not be America, I just made your lives easier... No need to thank me, but I do appreciate it)
Americans...

I did all the work for you so all you have to do is just show up!

Also don't forget that you can also be my follower on the blog itself (privately or publicly... either way I'm gonna know anyway) or just like the fan page or you can do both! 

You have a choice people! 

Make one!

 Or do nothing... that's good too. 

That is also a choice, but it just wouldn't benefit me at all.

 Just keep that in the back of your mind and click! That's all you have to do! Please? Thanks. 

I love my readers and hopefully, you will reveal yourselves to me very soon muhahahahaha! (a.k.a: not my creepy laugh)

Keep reading and keep it classy everyone! Remember how much my brain cells are important to me! (Without them I might die or worse! I'll get kicked out of college!! Nooooo...) So, I need moar brain cells!

NOTE: Also if you have any more ideas that I could do in order to promote my blog or just to make the content more worthwhile, you can message me on my fan page and as soon as I get a follower, I'll open up my email so you can also shoot me some emails at my personal email account (think of this as the unlockable portion of a video game!) or you could just comment on my blog! Please? Don't be shy! I live for comments! Opininions? Constructive criticisms? Straight out bashing?

NOTE 2: Also if you've notice that I've posting these posts pretty late, I'm sorry. I notice that the more I post these late, the more nobody reads them! So, I'll try to post earlier from now on, but sometimes life just doesn't let you that, but that just means more interesting blog posts! So bear with me please and keep reading!

NOTE 3: I just wanted to add that the placement of my like box forces the reader to scroll down so I can see whether or not people actually read the post and then they like it because of that. Not, just because they just see a like box and then they mindlessly like the box and then they turn into obnoxious monsters making me lose someone who I thought in my heart was a true follower? *sniff* Yep, so there's my logic for my like box placement. Please don't like it just for the sake of liking it, liking my blog means that you are truly interested in my stories and the way that my brain functions! If that's your reasoning too (or close to it, at least) then like away!

 I like people who like my like box
