This has been a big thing for me. How anonymous do I want to be online? Should I post my full real name and let anyone find me? Should I go by my first name, since it's such a common name? Should I go by a nickname? I know different people who do all three. Different thought processes.
I really don't like the idea of my full name being out there, but then it's on facebook, which does link here. So am I just being overcautious? For a long time my full name wasn't even on facebook, just my last initial.
I do like the idea of being able to choose my own name online. A secret identity. A me who might be more like myself. Freer, who tries not to care about what you all might think about me. And if you all know me in real life, how do the two me's overlap?
And a new issue has come up: my boyfriend. You see, he has a blog. And on his blog he uses his real name. But, how do I refer to him here? His first name? A nickname?
Hmmm....

Where does my time go?
I find myself asking this question quite often. It seems really strange, I only have: one class, one unofficial job, and a boyfriend. (who is super busy which is sad, but he makes time for me which is happy) You'd think I'd have oodles of time, right? WRONG! Right now is the first time in like a week or two that I've actually had time to myself to sit and blog. And catch up on Google Reader, which is under 1,000 right now! Let's see how long that lasts...
Anyway, so how do I spend my days? It depends on the day, but something like this (on a Thursday):
Sometime around 6 or 6:30: Wake up. Get ready for the day.
Around 7:00: Make lunch for me and my roommate.
7:30: Ride picks me up/I drive to campus.
8:00-11:00: Class
11-1: Lunch, hopefully with a certain guy
1-5: Work for my rent. Because I'm not good at finding a real job. Or something
5-6: Dinner
After 6: I never know what happens here. I probably take a bath, chat with the guy, do dishes. I go to bed eventually, and if I'm smart I say goodnight around 9:30 or 10. If I'm not, I stay up until 11ish and curse myself the following day.
So, obviously there are a few hours missing. This is open to investigation. Where do these hours go? No one knows. But after dinner is always Chatting Time. If you ever want to chat with me, that is the time. I do in fact stay up later than I should, because if I can't spend time with my guy, I'm going to talk to him/distract him while he works on his insane projects because he's a genius. At least he's not an evil genius. Yet.
