I glanced again at my changed relationship status. "Bre Patterson is now in a relationship with Andrew Dexter"
"Lovely," I muttered. "Why did I do that again?"
Of course, I wasn't really going out with him. I didn't even really know him. I was just playing the old facebook relationship prank.....again. And why? This time, I wasn't really sure.
Last time I had gone a little further than dating. I facebook married the dude, for goodness sake. But it was different, because Carlin Kinsley, my handsome Irish hubby, was a fictional character I created a profile for. It was fun, and really well done. For about a week I had everyone convinced we had gotten hitched over Christmas break. It was ridiculously funny. I got so many "Congratulations!" from people at school, it was almost scary. But this time it wasn't a fictional character, and this time I had photos posted with us "together." Ugh.....
It all happened rather fast, actually. We were planning on creating a fake person online, like I had done with Carlin, so he could facebook date her and freak his mom and friends out. And I was simply going to pose as this girlfriend character in a couple pictures. That sounded like fun to me. As an actress-at-heart, I always love a challenge, and this looked like a great one. He and a team of trusted friends came to my apartment right away for a quick photoshoot. But somewhere between the couch and the door, we decided it be funnier if we just changed our relationship statuses and said we were dating, and at the moment, that sounded like a really great idea. But was it?
I looked at the clock. 4:15am. Great. I have church at 8:30, and here I am worrying about facebook. And why? Does it really matter? Does it really affect me? Will church and school be weird for me now that everyone thinks I’m going out with this guy? I didn’t even wanna think about it.
Nervous about the next few days, I closed my laptop and switched off the light. I love pranks. I love acting. Everything’s going to be fine… I hope. Ugh….. I’ll find out soon enough, at least.

Ahhhhh!!! I don't know if you even check this anymore, but what happened?! I stumbled across your first vlog on youtube (because I was looking up videos tagged with BSSM) and then I followed the links to your blog and... lol read this and now I am really curious! o_o What happened?
ReplyDeletehaha, sorry, you don't know me at all. My name is Kara and I am applying to attend BSSM 1st Year next september (2010) :) thus the interest in anything bssm.. ;)
alright, anyways... lol I hope it turned out good? those things can be quite confuzzling.
Kara! I'm sorry I didn't check this for awhile. I go thru blogging spurts where I write alot and then I just stop. haha
ReplyDeleteEverything turned out fine. :) It was just really weird for like a week. Like, my mom and some of my friends back home totally thought it was real, and then a bunch of people at school thought it was too. They'd be like, "Oh, so you're with Andrew now, right?" and I'd have to explain that it was a joke.
So it wasn't that bad, but I've decided that I'm NEVER doing that again. haha At least not with a real person. Maybe a fake one, like Carlin. hehe
You should find me on Facebook. We can be friends! hehe :)
Search for Bre "Shekinah" Patterson.

ReplyDeletelol, good, glad it turned out good. ^_^ Haha I was curious, because I have thought about doing that as well next year - pretending about a guy to make my sisters all "O_O!" .. but yeah, we'll see. :) I think I agree about how it could be awkward if its a real person - realy like the idea of creating a fake profile.. hmmm... >:} hahah :)
