Sometimes 'in-your-face'...book.
"OMG, I just sneezed!"
"I'm unwell...*sniff*"
"I don't like this."
"I don't like that."
"I saw this movie."
"Hey look, my popcorn!"
"Happy *whatever* Day!"
"See this picture of my perfect...
a) family
b) children
c) husband
d) boyfriend
e) holiday
f) pet"
...and so on.
Social networking is not just social networking. It has a lot to do with inflating the ego, broadcasting an opinion, sending subtle and loud messages both to one or more people, talking to self out loud --online, showing off your wit and various other things including photos of yourself and your beloveds'.
Sometimes, it gets to be in-your-face and on-your-nerves. The people (er, your 'freinds', I mean), their thoughts, their opinions, their blah-blahs, their pictures, and everything they are crazy about....it can all drive YOU crazy.
I considered deactivation, but when you're in a business and your thing includes sales of any kind, eegawd, you gotto brave all this and adopt an 'if you can't beat them, join them' mantra.
So I do...so i do.

After a break
What if I cannot write anymore?
This is a thought that has been troubling me for a long time now. Before I actually start writing things that other people might read, thought should post something on my old blog teesutalk.
Why am i calling it old? it's the ONLY blog I've got:-D
Today,something funny happened ...I was driving and spotted a black Volkswagen ahead of me and thought it was my friend's. Painstakingly, I zoomed ahead and manoeuvered into position next to the car all the while trying to check if it was her in the driver's seat. Finally, I got near enough to wave, look at her and catch her attention. I waved wildly and happily beamed at her. In a split second I realised that it was not my friend at all but a stranger -- a very 'zapped' man. The startled guy had a sour-faced woman next to him who I am sure did not break into a smile at this behaviour from me! I quickly shook my hand at them as if to rub off my over-enthusiastic greeting and drove well away.
Chuckling at myself, of course. Good start to a morning, people. Better than the mundane, eh.
