creepy..

so i've recently stumbled upon someone's blog and as i was perusing facebook and while i was browsing through it, i read their little bio section. and while i was reading, i discovered it sounded kind of familiar.
and their bio was basically my bio.

ie. she had copied and pasted my "about me" from facebook (which i changed a while ago.. now kicking myself, wishing i could read it for comparison) and changed the parts that she liked. ie. mine said something like:

i have a slight obsession with shoes. and by slight i mean i own over 40 pairs. i love to love and be loved. i'm addicted to chai lattes and peppermint mochas in the winter and passion iced tea lemonade in the summer. i wish it could be summer the whole year 'round.

and hers reads:

i have a slight obsession with purses & by slight i mean it's a crazy, expensive love affair <3. i love to love & be loved in return.I’m addicted to chocolate chillers,ice caps,strawberry lemonade & green tea lattes. i wish it could be summer the whole year 'round.

as hers continues on, the similarities don't stop.

this person is a classmate of mine. in the journalism program. so although this isn't that big of a deal, this kind of frustrates me because:
1) i hate it when people steal my shit. it has happened before, where someone has stolen what i have written. that's irritating because those are MY thoughts and MY words. plus, it's creepy, so don't do that.
and
2) you're an aspiring journalist and you can't even write your own mini-bio for your personal blog..you have to copy someone else's? that, i don't understand.

i WILL be successful in this business because i CAN think for myself.






EDIT: i forgot my advent calendar at home. sad. happy december 1!
