About Me

My photo
Hey there! Call me DJ! I'm from Bismarck, Arkansas and I attend college at Henderson State University. I've been dating my bestfriend since the 9th grade and no, he hasn't proposed. Believe me, I'm waiting impatiently!!! I love to laugh... if you don't have time to laugh, you're to busy. I love cheerleading but I don't cheer at Henderson. Don't be afraid to talk to me! I don't bite!!!... okay maybe a little.

Social Networking

1. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2551578/Is-Twitter-making-STUPID-Social-networking-sites-making-hard-people-think-themselves.html 2.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/sam-fiorella/cyber-bullying-social-media-and-parental-responsibility_b_4112802.html I believe that social networking is a good thing. I get to keep in touch with my family that I never see, and to be honest just see what's going on in other peoples lives. I love to laugh. It's my favorite thing to do. I use twitter to keep me laughing! I constantly tweet and retweet things nonstop because they're funny! Seeing things that other people say and do can be a confidense booster by realizing you're not the only one that always puts the sugar in after the cheerios. On the other hand, not only do I not tolerate any kind of bullying, I can see how cyberbullying is a problem with social media. Cruel (mostly girls, because girls are viscous creatures) children and even adults get on social media and believe that they rule it. They believe that it doesn't matter what they say because it's "just facebook." But, I don't believe that social media should be blamed for the bullying. The bullying will be there whether it's in class or on facebook because humans are disgusting creatures.

All About Deanna Jane :)

HI!!!
My name is Deanna Boothe, but most people just call me DJ. I live in Arkansas and I attend Henderson State University. I plan to get my degree in Elementary Education. I love to roam the woods, play Call of Duty, watch How I Met Your Mother, and sleep. I try to be really funny most of the time, but usually I'm either really cheesy or no one thinks I'm funny! My best friend is in the Navy and my other best friend is attending National Park Community College. I have been dating the same guy since I was in the 9th grade. No, he hasn't proposed yet( believe me, I'm trying!!!) I plan to use this blog to vent about my life even though I know that no one will actually read this!Oh well, here we go!
