Week: Summer
Songs to Remember: Tennis Court (Flume Remix) - Lorde

        There are times when I'm just staring at the screen while continually refreshing my Facenovel feed and YouTube subscriptions, hoping for something new to pop up. Right now is one of 'em.

        So, I'm kinda tired right now. There have been accounts of people (and by people I mean my Facenovel friends) who have been "hacked". And by "hacked" I mean given control of their accounts to spam bots. Seriously, why do you people click those links.

        If you haven't seen a person who's been a victim of this, here's how it goes. A person who's been "hacked" will message their friends saying something like "OMG, have you seen this video of you?" or more of the common "OMG, are you mad????" If you are to reply, the spam bot will auto-message you something like "Here's the link" and then they'll send you something like "giraffesaremainstreamcom". Then they'll be like "Oops, forgot the dot", in order for Facenovel to not detect spam links.

        About 3 or 4 people have been "hacked" and messaged me the "OMG, are you mad????" thing. I thought I'd just f*** around and say "I love you" to everything the bot says. After those people got their accounts back, they told "Sorry, I was hacked" and I was like "Mhmm, you don't think so?"

        Anyways, I don't really no what else to talk about. I've been having weird dreams this past week, but I've had so many that it isn't really much of a big deal anymore. Let's see, uhhh, oh that thing I wanted to talk about but I held off for another time. Yeah I'm holding that off for another time, probably on August 9th I'll talk about it.

        Not much new music really, pretty boring listening to the same songs over and over again, even though my music collection is about 4 gigs worth. Sooo, I guess I'll see you tomorrow. I feel like I forgot something I wanted to talk about. Always happens.
