Last week I went on vacation. Technically, it still is my vacay, since today is the last day. Haven't turned on the computer since Thursday although I did read Google Reader Saturday night for an hour. The longer I stay away from the internet, the less I want to go back.

I didn't go further than Jersey cos 1) I am broke; 2) and still had school.

For the record, I saw Tiff for a bit on Friday. She had to re-do her headshots for a new agent. I went to the mall in Jersey for the first time. I didn't reach the beach like I had planned. Stupid rain on Sunday.

But. Guy told me he wished I w3ent on more vacations cos I'm less stressed out.

This is surprising to me seeing how the top story on The Today Show was what sex of the oldest, married Duggar child's baby was going to be. People in the States actually giving a care about the happenings of a Central European country full of Muslims?

What made it different? What was it that got Americans concerned? Is it the large amount of protesters and the violence we are able to see on our televisions, newspapers and online? Is it because it smacks of restricting democracy?

One comparison that has been made is 'Tiananmen + Twitter = Tehran' . The internet has changed the face of how we get our information. Since everything has been shut down apparently, Twitter is the last source.
