People like Me have nothing else better to do?

I don't know since when did I came into contact with the internet. During poly days, which was like 10 years ago? I think I didn't have a computer at home, back then. I meant that the computer belongs to my brother, so that means I CANNOT touch it.

So, it was stay-back-in-school-and-use-the-internet-for-free kind of days. A little pathetic but economical. I remember some of my classmates and I used to do that a lot. Stay back, go to the computer room, sign in and it was IRC chatting. Hahaha. You really never know what kinds of people you will "see".

It was fun. Or was it? I see it as a way of passing time, if you ask me. Making friends? Ya, well, maybe.

But I really must admit the myriad information we can get from the internet was really superb. Back then, being an astronomy fan, I would search the net for all the information I needed. Just type something in the search engine and voila! you got it. The internet was indeed a great tool to use. And also a tool to get connected to the world.

And now, there is blog. Although I don't consider myself an avid blogger, I really enjoy blogging pretty much alright. I can write however I feel. Haha. And I also enjoy reading other people's blog. Some people are really GOOD when it comes to writing, which I'm really bad at.

But of course, there is bad in every good. There are harmful stuff on the internet too. But I guess it's really up to individuals. For me, I am really thankful for it, so I won't abuse it.
