Haili's Complete List of Ways to Waste Time on the Internet
(I am guilty of all of these)
- http://www.tvtropes.org/. Don't have the slightest idea why it's so entertaining, but it is. I just look up a movie or book I've recently read and drink in the unconstrained knowledge, because, as they say, There is No Such Thing as Notability
- http://www.deviantart.com/ I find it very fun, and you can find all sorts of tutorials that you just have to try. I ended up downloading Gimp (a free photoshop- download here- it's really fun) and then used stock photos to make photo manipulations, or "manips." That kept me entertained for an entire weekend.
- http://www.azaleasdolls.com/ This is for girls- but it's basically paper dolls on the computer. I feel like such a nerd, but I made all of my screenplay characters (Prince Micah, Princess Jensina, Princess Contenza, and Prince Nolan-Micah, Jennie, Connie, and Nolan) on the Tudor doll thing and it's surprisingly addicting. I love how they turned out and they look amazing- I'll post a screenshot soon. There are all sorts of games on this site, from Victorian to fairy to Tinkerbell to tudors (with guys!) and Rapunzel. They're all really detailed and you can make it look AMAZING.
- http://www.coolmath-games.com/ The only game site my high school allows. When I had no classes and was feeling very sick, I beat Ninja Painter and Factory Balls 1 and 2. I also like the Meeblings games, though I haven't won that yet.
- Red Ball- I've beat Red Ball 2 and 3, but not 1. I don't like Red Ball 1. It's super entertaining.
- http://www.yahooanswers.com/ You knew this one was coming... don't have a clue why it's so entertaining. You'll find me (Keidreiy in greek letters) in the baby names section, usually playing name games.
- NaNoWriMo forums- they're still open! I just asked a question about the fued in my screenplay and got a lot of help.
- Google Translate- have no idea again why this is fun, but you can spend a lot of time "researching" for novels... hehe
- Youtube Tutorials- ever wondered how to decorate a cool cake or make fabric roses? Almost anything you could ever want to learn how to do, you can find a tutorial for it on youtube
- Youtube skaters- I don't know why, but I find it really fun to look up figure skaters on youtube...
- Youtube karaoke- find your favorite songs' accopianment and sing along like no one's listening!
- Youtube your name- or google it. I like it because my real name (Haili's my nickname and online name) is really unique and it's interesting to see how many other people have it and where they're from. I'm the only person in the world (or at least on the internet) with my first and last name spelled my way. There's a figure skater on youtube with my first name but she pronouces it really weird and still spells it my way...
- Lolcatz- enough said. "Can I has cheezburgah?"
- Look up funny quotes from your favorite books "I vill destroh the snickah bahrs!"- Gazzy Ride
- http://www.teenink.com/ look up people's work. Here's a link to my page (I'm MercyChristine... for now. I always change my name)
- http://www.bighugelabs.com/ all sorts of fun things to do to your photos
- Start a blog!
And if that's not enough, here are 101 ways to waste time online http://voices.yahoo.com/101-ways-waste-time-online-170580.html
