Distraction #2 - Random YouTube Videos

I have this friend that is a giant distraction!  I love her to death but she is like a professional YouTube viewer and always has a new video to show me.

Just the other day I was trying to do homework (Hmm, I tend to do that a lot. Crazy!) when she enters my room with yet another entertaining video.  Check it out below!!


There's only one word to say after watching this: MORE!  Of course I realize that this poor girl is one of the worst singers of all time, but that is exactly why I want to keep watching.

Of course this forced me to visit her YouTube channel and spend 20 minutes watching her "Call Me Maybe" and other song covers.

But I spent even more time on this next video that the same friend brought to my attention.  (WARNING: This video contains some content that may not be quite "morally sound."  But it is very funny!)
 

I just love parodies!!  When I become famous I'm going to be the first celebrity to make a parody of them self!!  Look out world because I'm about to distract you so much you won't even know you were distracted - Oh wait, that's what normally happens with distractions!  

A big thanks to my distracting friend Shelby Delay!

Distraction #1 - Creating this Blog

Blogger has just made me waste over 2 hours of my life!  I'm not sure how much blogging experience you have, but I personally don't have very much at all.  When I began creating this blog I thought it would be relatively easy and quick . . .  I was only partially right.  

Blogger does a great job of making it easy for a newcomer to design a good-looking blog.  The only problem - for me at least - is the numerous amount of design options.  One minute I'm choosing the title of my blog and thirty minutes later I'm scrolling through all the template choices.  

I mean really!!  Does a person need 34 template design options?  Plus each one is customizable!!  How am I to choose?  And then there are the 20 different types of background images that each have a number of pictures to choose from.


For a girl that can barely pick between Fruit Loops and Frosted Flakes in the morning, this is an almost impossible task!  After hours of distraction from what should have been homework time, I finally decided on the design you are now viewing.


If you're wanting to get into blogging yourself I would advise developing a sense of decisiveness.

Or you could just get a Magic 8 Ball to make all your design decisions for you.  Why didn't I think of that!!!
