ok, now, my post pertaining to myspace...
today i deleted my myspace! yep, i did it.
before i list the reasons, please know that i have nothing against those who do have a myspace and this isn't like a boycott thing...it's just a personal thing.
here are my reasons:
1. myspace has some pretty terrible ads. i never really notice the ads because most of them are targeted to guys, i guess. but even though i'm not really being effected by it, i would rather not contribute to something that may cause one of my friends to get into trouble- because the bad stuff if literally one or two clicks away.
2. myspace is time consuming and can be addicting. sometimes all you can think about is "did i get a message?" or "i wonder who's online". i know that for a few weeks there it was really taking up a lot of my time and causing me to slack in responsibilities. (blogger can do that too. :) -but not so much)
i mean...i've had some awesome conversations on myspace, but not anything that i couldn't have done through email or im. but yeah...myspace took away a lot of valuable time that i could have spent on more important things.
so there are a couple of my reasons for deleting my myspace. like i said...i don't judge the people that have one nor do i have anything against them...this is just how i'm choosing to do it. :) so yeah...
you guys can email me or leave comments-GET BLOGS! or im me.
and what's kind of crazy is that, tonight, at enthralled, sarah and i are speaking about setting standards in entertainment. it's so crazy how God pieces everything together. i always say it, but He always does it...His presence is so evident everywhere i look.
i am so thankful for His grace and for His blessings in my life.
(i'm still praying that He will make me patient with my brothers...even when they overwhelm me. lol. and that He will continue to teach me how to fully enjoy them and delight in them. :)
so...that's about it for now.
thanks for reading. :)

Oh and you know it is a boycott, you are just trying to be nice...
Now we need to convert others to blogger!!!

(Is it just me, or do I sense Dan O.'s hand in this deletion?)
actually no...my mom sort of encouraged it...
and my dad didn't really push at all. he is completely against myspace, but he didn't push me. my mom didn't either. she just told me how she saw it and i evaluated and agreed. so yeah...and it feels good! lol.
AHHHHHH IM Soooo PROUD:)!!!!!yayyyyy im really happy you deleted it...I bet it felt GREAT....hey i think i started a trend:P :) im really happy you did what you felt was right!!! i will see you wens...
All I gots' to say is "manual transmissions ROCK my socks OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Anyway,
naughty....!?! That's really cool that you deleted you Space of my, and I would say you are my hero, but Phil already did. So, I guess that you are an inspiration to ADHD people like myself. Congrads on being a mature Christian!

Hi, I'm joel Dykes daughter. i totally agree on the myspace, I dont have one and dont plan on getting one!! *high fives* we can be cool together!! lol..
tori,
what does it feel like to no longer be in the age bracket of "younger/little kids/ man, I can't drive yet legally/ if only I was like older, like I could like have older person priveleges (sp)/ like man I'm responsible/ like this list is getting long and harder to write because I'm still in this bracket/ like, ugh...... what else do people my age think about when like they get ready to become like tori's age...../ like this is starting to get embarassing/ like naughty....!?!
happy birthday!

OK Tori, are you reading my mail???? I've been thinking the same thing lately. It is time consuming, and I'm a little uncomfortable with some of the adds. You are an inspiration and I think I'm gonna do the same!!!! Besides, I like the blog thing. Much more interesting and fun. I am proud of you! You are awesome!!!!
aww miss connie, that is so awesome! yeah...blogger is so much more fun. lol. well...i'm so glad that you are deleting your myspace! that is really cool.
