A New Macbook and a New Friend
Hey cutie, subscribe to my RSS feed and make my day! RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
This has been a fun week for the ExcuseGal. Last Saturday I finally got my very own Macbook. It's my first computer ever (aside from this pink Barbie Learning-Fun laptop I had when I was 6) and I'm already in love with it. The best part about my purchase? It turns out that my neighbor has wi-fi and he's broadcasting a totally unlocked signal. This means I have totally free wi-fi! Thanks "BEJERNUD"!
The worst part about my computer is definitely it's built-in webcam. It's not that it's low quality or doesn't work right, the reason I consider it the worst feature is that now I have no excuse for not posting video blog posts. Before I owned a computer, I was able to hide behind the shroud of poorly constructed senteinces and non sequitur images. Now every time I go to write a blog post, there's this tiny little camera staring me in the face. It's like my computer is challenging me to make a video post. Well, I accept your challenge Macbook!
Without further ado, here is the very first video post on A Good Excuse Blog!
So, I'm sure after watching that you have many questions. First one being, "how'd I land such a cutie to be the face of A Good Excuse Blog?" Well, as he mentioned (let's just call him ExcuseGuy from now on), ExcuseGuy is a classmate of mine at school. We've been in the same 3D Design class for a month and I was talking to him about my blog. He mentioned the he's studying social media and video communication, so I said to myself "I've gotta get this guy involved with the blog".
The best part about having ExcuseGuy do the video posts is that there's still no real connection to me. Since none of my friends or co-workers go to school with me, there's no way anybody who sees ExcuseGuy can link him back to me. My identity is thus kept secret so that I may continue to come up with great excuses for you all. And it's great for ExcuseGuy because he's just the conveyor of the excuses, so all his friends won't be all mad at him all the time since he's not actually using these excuses in real life. (I am).
To sum up, I, ExcuseGal, will continue to update the blog with new excuses. I'll still keep in touch with you all with Twitter and Facebook. The only change around here is that I'll be having ExcuseGuy make all the video posts for the site. If I ever get enough confidence, maybe I'll help him out on a post or two as well. Check back soon for more awesome excuses!
