::Where Am I Today?

Sunday, July 31, 2005

Most of my online friends wondered why I seldom blog like I used to.

I had some personal reasons for not blogging lately, not to mention that my blog archives kept growing. In the event I will have a change of heart and decide to discontinue using the net, what am I going to do with my blog? Do I have to keep paying for its web hosting fees monthly? These were common questions bothering me lately but, I must do something to slow down the time.

Since I became a netizen in November 1997, I couldn't believe I have wasted so much time avoiding the real world by sitting in front of my PC chatting and playing online games. Now that I am turning obese due to inactive lifestyle, I am caught in a limbo and a decision has to be made soon.

Whenever I am online, I didn't feel how time flies so quickly... I must admit I placed myself in a cyber space that made me occupied for nothing. What have I done for the past 8 years? Ugh... kids? Are they enough reason to be a dedicated mother? Am I dumb spending our bank savings until to the last cent before I will wake up that I must work also to support our daily needs? Life is great with us... yes, for now. And, I have 12 months to decide whether to drop this addiction to a more meaningful, active life!

Where am I today? I'm still sitting here in the privacy of my cold, dark room playing online games waiting for someone to love, wishing for something better to do and something real to hope for...

butterfly Let me know you were here, your thoughts are welcome!

Yeah, RWO's right. I believe that you've already accomplished a number of things in the past 8 years. Only that you haven't realized them. For instance, you've got a great blog here.

Without change there can be no growth, and without growth there can be no progress, and without progress life become stagnant and boring. Work & play at the same time is never impossible. Perhaps the time is right for a change.

Wishing you success & happiness.

Thank you very much for being very supportive, Randy. You're one of the best reason for making my online existence a memorable one.

You and your family had been very wonderful to me.

Well you may feel it has been a waste but you have made a lot of freinds and have improved your mind. You can still work and stay online, as I have been doing that for years. You just can't spend as much time on line. I hope to see you on the net for years to come.
