- Gosh, I am so dead.
My classmate just reminded me about my gerak gempurs which are tomorrow, and which I've conveniently forgotten about! Oh God, oh God, oh God. This is bad, I hate exams so much.
And, seriously, I need to get a life and cure me of my Internet Addiction. It all started just four years ago, when I was in form one, and has lasted till ... now. When I really think about it, it is sort of amusing. I think I'll even go into some history behind my fascination with the internet.
Phase one (2001): Okay, this was the time I finally got an internet connection, and hell yeah, I was fascinated. First, there were the chat rooms, which I often frequented on MiRC and MSN.
Ah, those were the days ... chatting with fascinating ang-mohs on Just Chillin' and Twenty Four Seven's ... wondering what the hell is cyber sex ... creating various dumb chat rooms with friends and kicking out annoying users with our "hammer". And, of course, I was also hooked on Neopets, where Christine, Munirah and I were recklessly building our empires of shops and pets. Ah, how innocent we were back then.
Phase two (2002): Around this time, I got bored of chatrooms. So, Mun and I actually created male ICQ accounts to pull pranks on our friends. Honestly, it was sort of pointless, but it was funny printing out various online flirting techniques our friends used, and to blackmail them with it. Hehe. And also, I met Julia, who introduced me to Legends. How interesting, the way Lynn, Julz and I used to pull all nighters hunting in that game. O_o
Phase three (2003): This was when Legends got shut down (boo-hoo) and I reverted back to chatting on MSN and ICQ. Of course, there were the other various new attractions like GunBound, Maple Story and Fairyland (God, I am such a geek)... I mean, I used to have a really strict curfew, really, until around the end of my form 3, so obviously, I didn't have a lot of entertainment to indulge in. I think that this was the time when I met a lot of new people via the cyber world. Of course, I hardly talk to a lot of them much anymore.
Phase four (2004-2005): Heh, this is when I discovered blogging! It was a really great concept, I thought, because since I write in my diary everyday, why not start writing about my life online? That's when my numerous blogs, like xanga and LJ came into the picture. Of course, they were all private. I only started this blog, because well, I'm bored. And besides that, I also had a phase of anime and korean fascination. Heh, heh. And seriously, ever since I started blogging, I hardly ever chat with my online friends anymore. I barely even add anybody to MSN anymore and I even uninstalled ICQ off my comp. But, really, I guess I should come up with something else more constructive to do online, because writing in three different blogs per day is just ... weird.
And, just yesterday, one of my online friends basically implied that I'm a stuck-up, conceited bitch, just because I hardly ever say 'Hi' to him and I take too long to reply his messages. In my defence, I said that I'm usually typing on my blog, or watching The OC, whenever I'm online, but the stupid dolt just retorted and said that "your priorities are screwed" and that basically, he won't ever say Hi to me again. (Yeah, yeah, like I'll miss that so much, sheesh.) I know, its probably my fault that I don't reply messages fast enough, nor do I usually bother to initiate conversations, but seriously, I never intended to come off as bitchy! -_- It's not like I'm some kind of anti-social ass, but seriously, I'm sure that not everyone talks to everyone on their MSN list everyday, right? I love chatting and everything, but most of the time, I find myself sounding like a brainless bimbo. Because, well, I have weird chatting tendencies that I'm sure people find annoying. So why should I disturb everybody with my senseless chatter? :(
Oh wells. As long as I'm having fun. It doesn't matter what I'm doing, or how I'm doing it, as long as I'm not hurting anyone. (except that one weird dude, who seemed sort of pissed, though I have no idea why my slow replies would anger anyone) O_o And yeah, I need to cure my online addiction. Because whenever I'm not out of the house, loitering somewhere with my pals, I'm sitting in front of my comp. And that's bad. Honestly.
But no matter, that's when my PS2 and bicycle comes into the picture.
