I am waiting for mom to fetch me during lunch and give Nyai a short visit.
I hope she is doing ok.
When the Facebook craze began, I was least interested in it.
Everyone was saying that it is fun and occupies a lot of your time.
See, I am a person who would rather be reading than playing with applications on the web.
So there was my Lil' Sis who set up the account for me, told me about it and then it was left dormant for months.
Lo and behold, I picked it up and started playing around with it.
While I thought it was similar to my already-dead-Friendster account, I was shown wrong.
It was beyond my thoughts.
I started out with a pathetic pool of 6 friends.
Today, it reached 93 people.
It's really amazing how I got there.
Like I said, my close friends are only a handful.
Still, it was there who I met Lovie's siblings and in-law though we are so far apart. Its really wonderful how we still keep in touch. It was easier to drop a note or joke. Wonderful isn't it.
Then it was there I met my older friends. How I re-kindled my lost friendships during University days.
I met previous working colleagues and even some of my tuition students.
What's also fantastic is that my blog readers who I never knew added me on Facebook. It is lovely. Suddenly, the world seemed smaller.
Of course I have relatives who added me on Facebook. Those who just want to keep tabs on what I do which is ok. My life is clean.
I have aunties in there too who would play the middle person, match making via Facebook!!!
Macam catalogue gitu.. hahaha
The aunties are getting smarter.
*lol*
I stopped pushing away matchmaking sessions. Not because I feel there is a hurry now to get married but sometimes, I just let the story flow. All that happens is with His grace.
It was also through Facebook I met interesting people. People who were probably nerdy just like me. People who would write mails to me telling me their life experiences.
It is wonderful to know that I probably found more than one Paulo Coelho.
People who appreciates life and know the deeper meanings of it.
I did not have much problem of men wanting to get to know me.
I would have said I am married since it was never my intention to find another half on Facebook but didn't think that would pass off since i look too young
*lol*
But the status of being in a relationship sure helps a lot.
There is a lot more to life. A lot more for me out there and for you as well.
If you look at what you do not have in life, you don't have Anything
If you look at what you have in life, you have Everything...
At the end of the day, it is MY choice and choices are only for us to make under any circumstances.
Hid, this you are right about the theory of individualism.
Still my notion stands - depends.
*winks*
