I still listen to the radio from time to time. It's fun to listen to early morning shows with a mix of music and news, at least for me haha. In fact, last year I won some money in a radio contest!(yes those still exist!!)

...would it surprise anyone to learn that I've had Radio Ga Ga stuck in my head for half the night?

I love the contests they do on the radio! There was one where they'd play a random sound and have people try to guess it, tacking on money every time someone got it wrong...the guesses got weirder and weirder as time went by. xD

Has anyone actually won a radio contest? I won a TV contest before, from a local news station. Won tickets to Disney's California Adventure on Opening Day.

Anyways, I feel weird being online on a weekend. I'm never online during the weekends. Studying for finals sucks.

Spotify is where it's at. I don't follow news and maybe it's worryingly that my main source of news and happenings is facebook or PC? xDDD

That just means you're doing it right (i.e PC distracting you from studying for finals)

Yess!!! But it was not worth having to hear my voice on the radio my lord. I wanted to hide under a table when I heard myself on air.

My main source of news is Twitter. If something major is happening, it'll be on Twitter. I have it open 24/7, and as such, I have missed very few tweets since I joined in 2009.

I tweet and Tumblr all day. It's how I roll in the world of social media.

Sirfetch’d March 4th, 2016 5:47 PM

Syndrome forced me to make a Twitter so I made one. I still rarely use social media though...

I'm sure there'll be something that can make social media more fun for you.

Succumbing to peer pressure like that...smh Chase.

I barely post anything to Facebook or Twitter myself though. I mostly use it to stalk keep in touch with friends. Most of my tweets wind up being responses to other people anyway.

Wicked3DS March 4th, 2016 7:14 PM

I Facebook a fair bit but I barely go on Twitter at all.

Flowerchild March 4th, 2016 7:53 PM

I only use Facebook for group chats. I really never use any kind of social media besides that.

EC March 4th, 2016 8:28 PM

Facebook is a cesspool of people posting meme images and uploading albums with over 100 pictures.

tonbo March 4th, 2016 8:35 PM

i use facebook a lot, mostly for messaging purposes but also for news and just generally seeing what people i know are up to. i never actually post anything though, don't even have a dp lol.

Meganium March 4th, 2016 8:53 PM

I feel bad that my main news source is Reddit.

I know. And to top of that, my boyfriend is a bad influence.

pkmin3033 March 4th, 2016 10:23 PM

Eurgh, social media. Social media is bad.

...well, Tumblr has lots of nice pictures on it. If you're very careful.

Cay March 4th, 2016 11:59 PM

I use Facebook mainly for class assignments and messaging nowadays, but I'm on Instagram and Tumblr quite a lot. I do have a twitter, but I mainly use it for communication purposes. Social media can be cool when used wisely, I've seen some pretty upsetting examples of it used maliciously.

Same thing with me when using Facebook. I just feel I don't have anything worthwhile to announce while I see a lot of my other friends already married, starting a family, etc., lol.

As for other social media, I check out Tumblr and Twitter, though I'm more active on Tumblr. Twitter I sorta used it more to check up on my friends and announcements from various tv shows and video games.

moon March 5th, 2016 12:53 AM

I mean. What would I even tweet about haha. Cats?

tonbo March 5th, 2016 1:02 AM

i have a friend that used to have a cat related instagram account that had a couple thousand followers. people love that stuff.

Logan March 5th, 2016 2:16 AM

Snapchat is king

Alex March 5th, 2016 3:16 AM

I mean it gets a bad rap for nudes but it's also a ton of fun knowing your embarrassing faces won't get saved forever. plus they've got plenty of preset face distorters and funny filters that change on a weekly basis. Snapchat's pretty great haha
