Social Media Stalking

Question: What ways do you want companies/users/strangers/friends to use personal information you post in social networking sites?

I read somewhere of a woman complaining about being found by a stranger by using the site foursquare. What I couldn't get my head around was, why she was complaining at all. Before geotagging was introduced to twitter, boundaries were somewhat clear right? Yet, when your private and public life begin to mesh, thanks to or because of social media networks, don't we really have only ourselves to blame?

Probably Nothing

Today, I stood up too fast and fainted. I hit the floor, but didn't knock out. Still, very odd. I'm gonna go with low blood pressure.

BREAKTHROUGH, BRAINSTORM, LIGHTING BOLT!

I may have just found the law school of my dreams. USF: School of Law! They even have a program that is pretty much what I want to do with my . . . . everything. It's really weird to suddenly have a goal, a clear goal that I have to work up to. It's refreshing, exciting, and scary at the same time. On the one hand, the school is perfect, it will teach me the things I wish to know about the most, yet the journey is hard and paved with uncertainty.

My next purchase is probably all the LSAT prep books I can get my hands on, I figure you can't be too prepared (unless you're a 2012 nutter). I'm gonna start studying in earnest after SDCC, and once back in Santa Barbara I'll schmooze some of my past professors for a proper letter of recommendation, and probably some professors in the LAWSO department as well. What? It can't hurt. If anything, I'll probably get some guidance from 'em.

I'm gonna put USF on a pedestal, and obsess about it in the same way I did for UCSB. Wish me luck.

SDCC again, begin again

I'm looking over the program for SDCC this year, and it looks like I need more bodies. Friday looks freaking amazing, and I have to somehow tear myself into two or three bodies so I can both explore, and be in Ballroom 20 and 6A at the same time.
