Fighting against Internet Addiction

Did you know that on Thursday 1st September this blog celebrated his 1st month anniversary?? 😀 Happy birthday my dear WordPress blog!!!

Anyway since Friday the 2nd at 11.00 a.m. I tried not to surf on the internet at all… Friday afternoon was great because I wasn’t at home – was hanging with my family – and therefore I didn’t even wander about it.

My father often tells me that internet is like a drug to me and I think it’s true: If I have time I can even open my laptop just before going to school… and after school I actually open it all the time until I go to bed. Of course I do multitasking therefore my homework doesn’t suffer from lack of attention. I especially am addicted because I know there are always lots of mail I need to check, whether it be from my WordPress subscriptions, Youtube notifications, blogger mail, twitter… and I hate to have too much mail unread therefore I check my mail very often.

On Saturday the 3rd I went shopping since morning… and I didn’t have that desire to sign in anymore… the addiction was going away… but anyway I didn’t do much yesterday… I just felt I needed some relaxation: away from schoolwork and from computer 🙂 and it worked! 🙂

Then in the evening I thought that more than 24 hours has been enough because I always fear that my inbox will overload… anyways I’m still an internet addict, I’m proud to be one, but sometimes, this should be treated…

Internet addiction kills real life relationships and distracts us from our studies sometimes, but it also enhances my general knowlegde and my business management abilities – by monitoring 2 blogs – and also my writing skills! 😀

Therefore, I’m against Internet Addiction as much as I’m for it! 😛 if you get the meaning…

My Biggest Blogging Mistake!

On the 25th of June 2011, I started a makeup blog, Makeup Is Art on Blogger. I wanted to share my passion for this art to the world. At first I was completely lost. But gradually, as the weeks passed my blog grew… I got familiar with Blogger and blogging itself… but then one day everything stopped: my followers were only 5 in numbers and weren’t growing for weeks, the comments went down…

What happened? Is this happening to you now?

First we have to check these 3 main things that we should do when one blogs:

1. Publish quality content

2. Participate in the blogging community i.e. comment on other similar blogs, in discussions, forums, contests…

3. Publicize blog through social media like Twitter, Facebook, Stumbleupon…

I’m sure many of you are addicted to some websites in one way or another. Who doesn’t frequently check his facebook profile nowadays? Let’s see if you got the same taste as me. So here’s the Top List:

First and foremost, when I open my browser, I get into my homepage which is Yahoo! So I check my mail…

1. Yahoo! Mail

2. Gmail

A WordPress Welcome

Hi everyone out there! I’m a new WordPress blogger and that’s my first post, and as I can see the WordPress welcome is very nice! They even fooled me in writing the first post for me (which I replaced by that of course) and made me feel like my blog was already being hacked!

Well, anyway, I’m Morgan-Daphne, or MD if you prefer. In fact, that’s not my name. LOL! It just matches my blog title: Evil Nymph. If you get the meaning behind what I just mentioned then follow me ’cause I’ll be eager to meet you! xD

(hey can’t we change the font here??)

Okay, let’s restart:

My name is Daphnée, I’m a girl of 16 this year (2011) and I’m a great fan of legends and myths, as much as I love makeup, as much as I enjoy vidding on Youtube, as much as I wish to become a psychologist when I grow up, as much as I like to read and write, as much as I prefer Twitter to facebook, as much as I want a tattoo, as much as I’m a language lover…

And the list goes on. I’m very um versatile? as you can see so if your interests match mine, feel free to comment!

In fact I’m not a new blogger, I have a blog on blogger on makeup (http://daphyin-makeupisart.blogspot.com) but I’ve recently wanted to try to sign up in various blogging sites – my next target will be tumblr – and therefore my second blog is here.

You won’t be deceived by this blog, ’cause I won’t be writing for nothing, I promise! I might only deceive you when I’ll take some time in posting, because I’ll then be taking part in exams (hey I’m still at school!!)…

As soon as I’ll get used to WordPress my blog will give out only productive and useful articles for everyone! 🙂 I don’t know if it’s a personal blog but it’s not a business blog, I don’t want any money from this. It’s just another hobby 🙂 Moreover everything that I do on the net is not for business, it’s just for FUN.

Hey by the way it’s the very 1st day of Autumn today: the 1st August! and also a Wiccan festival: Lughnasadh.

Blessed be )0(

PS: I’m open-minded – even about religious views. I’m officially Catholic but deep inside I’m sort of agnotic… i.e. I don’t have a particular religion, I only believe in some super force.

Your Evil Nymph,

MD.
