A slap in the Face-book

Hey Reader!

Among my group of friends we use facebook extensively to keep up with each other and organise events...and so on and so forth. Last night TLR posted an event about a dinner party at our house next weekend. Normally this would be alright, but she's done so without asking anyone if it's okay. Of course, that's a little bit of an assumption. I know for a fact she didn't talk to me about it, but she could have spoken to the others. However, Spike just came in to see me and asked if she'd talked to me about it. So obviously, he hasn't been spoken to either. He's a little miffed as well. If she hosts this dinner party it's going to be a large expense to us and, being poor students, that's not something that can happen too often.

I'm not sure if I'm being unfair in my judgement here, but in my opinion, if you're going to host an event that will affect all of your roommates, you should ask them if it's okay first. When Daniel suggested a housewarming party last week, he came and talked to all of us to make sure it was okay to do so. TLR seems more interested in getting people over to entertain so they can praise her for hosting >>

...Okay, I admit, that's a little judgemental! But every time we've had a party in the past FF and I have done all the cleaning up and TLR has taken all of the glory for hosting the event. It's a little tiresome, but definitely leads me to believe that she wants to please as many people as possible to make her feel good about herself.
