I threw my 20th birthday party at Brown, and I didn't even have to say to anyone not to put pictures on Facebook. Not a single picture went up. That was when I knew I'd found a solid group of friends, and I felt like I belonged.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm even embarrassed at times when my friends come upon my pictures.
I do Facebook, but I only have my friends and family on it, and they always laugh at me for how little I post. I don't know how to upload photos, so I never add pictures.
I had my group of friends, you know, like my real group of friends, and then I had, like, party friends.
I once threw myself a surprise party on Twitter because I was lonely. It was awesome. Thousands of people showed up and then Wil Wheaton and I made a bunch of monkey-ponies. It was the most successful surprise party I've ever thrown in my life. It was also the only surprise party I've ever thrown in my whole life.
I wasn't some weird loner in school, but I definitely wasn't invited to any of the cool parties.
When we founded Facebook, we put a lot of hours into it and worked hard every day. 'The Social Network' painted this picture that we were partying all the time, when really we only attended 2 or 3 parties during Facebook's first year.
I kept hiding my smile in pictures throughout middle school and most of high school until picture day came my senior year.
I didn't go to parties or anything like that.
Back when I was in elementary school, I didn't have many friends.
I left Facebook after Facebook groups began appearing about me and suddenly your personal photographs start becoming public property.
