Do you like Trance/edm/house/rock/metal/dubstep/MUSIC? Read on dear friend. I'm going to branch out from just the edm music from now on but the majority will be the trance/edm stuff as before. I figured out how to make the videos show up in the thread rather than me linking to their youtubes. Does it matter to you?

Trance/edm/house/etc:
Andain - Promises (Myon & Shane 54 Summer Of Love Mix)
+ Show Spoiler +

Benga - Pour Your Love ft. Marlene (Dubstep. Yep, some of it's pretty good!)
+ Show Spoiler +

Genix - Higher State (Original Mix)
+ Show Spoiler +

Omnia - Infina (3rd Planet Remix)
+ Show Spoiler +

Stoneface & Terminal feat. Ellie Lawson - Breaking Through (Original Mix)
+ Show Spoiler +

Soundprank - Change Of State
+ Show Spoiler +

Other:
The Dandy Warhols - The World Come On (Alternative Rock I guess)
+ Show Spoiler +

In Flames - My Sweet Shadow (Metal, my first love)
+ Show Spoiler +


Here is where the music ends. After this point is general thoughts I have about this and that.

I have gone without a cell phone or facebook for about 4 months now and I'm still not sure how I feel about it. On the one hand, a lot less time is spent hoping people will talk to you, waiting for responses, etc. It felt too comfortable to have a phone on me if that makes any sense, like it was something you shouldn't be so reliant on. I'd be compulsively checking it to see who was doing what, saying what, etc etc etc. I saw this in my friends as well. We'd be outside drinking by the fire and at some points every single person would be texting. Just a spooky sight; the glow of phones on everyones faces around a bonfire.

As for facebook, that Zuckerberg is fuckin a genius. Notifications? Likes? Status updates? Comments? Tagging? How addicting are all these things? We want our thoughts to be heard, we want people to like statuses/photos, we want to see people sent us a friend request, comment on our hilarious drunk photos. I didn't like to want these things though. I hated the anticipation of logging on to see who liked this and that (but logged in anyways).

And on the other hand it's a lonely world without either! Of course it's useful to be able to text someone. You're tearing up the dance floor and your other friends wanna meet up with you. How do they get ahold of you? Texting sure would work. Friend waiting in the driveway? Much easier to text.

I've had friends of 15 years tell me they feel uncomfortable calling my house phone just because it means they (might) have to bother one of my family members to come find me. I also felt very weird about calling people's house phones when I first got rid of my cell phone. I've known most of these families my whole life and at the ripe old age of 23, calling a house phone makes us "nervous", "I don't do house calls". But without facebook or a cell phone, I don't hear from anyone that isn't a friend for life already or I play video games with. All those friends you made at university/college, hockey teams years and years ago all gone. Is it even a bad thing to want the attention facebook friends give you?

It's probably different for everyone though. Someone has to plan the beer olympics and the Saturday night outings. I thought I'd enjoy the idea of seeing who liked me enough to try and find me via house phone, email, skype, etc but that ended up being pretty sad. Not to mention that it's stupid to play this game with people. I shouldn't be that person who is testing your friendship. So this is a mistake I have learned from. Treat others the way you wanted to be treated etc etc etc.

I end up breaking even every day. Maybe I'll get a phone, maybe I won't. Maybe I'll start up a new facebook page. Is it a bad thing to enjoy this stuff? As with most things, you only think it's more important than it really is. Get past that and maybe it's not as complicated as I made it seem above!

I don't see the reason of forcing yourself to go without a phone. Yeah, you could say that before we didn't have them and our lives were normal, but we're in the 21st century. Everyone has a phone, and not having one is just making your life harder, for very little gain (I guess the radiation it causes could be a reason, but it's in such minute amounts it doesn't really matter either unless you sleep with it under your head)
I don't have a facebook either, and I never felt bad about tit

Being so connected definitely leads to an information addiction. When it's harder to get in contact with people then the people you DO stay in contact with are the people you will have better relations with. Unless you're in a business or industry where you really NEED to be available, then forget it.

I think you're making the right decision.
