On MSN.

After every exams, I will feel lost all of a sudden. It's like some kinda withdrawal effects. My body feels strange when I stop sitting at the cold, hard benches of S4 all together. Choices are aplenty, and I would stone for ages to review them. Choices are in fact, limited. I returned home, re-played Half-Life 2 and chatted with Heiwa. Then I started to tweak my MSN groupings. I grouped the people in my list in many many different ways. Call it boliao or watever. I don't usually do these things. The end-product: MSN 'Cool people' are people I like to talk to, and we usually end up talking for a long time, stretching our topics beyond limitless boundaries, if we do start to talk. Whoever initiates is not important here, because I like to talk to them. 'Maybe We'll Still Talk' people are people who talk to me only when they need something from me, or the other way round. To be fair, I'm equally likely to be in this category for many lists of many other people. Like only when I need money, I get from my FC, or when I need to record some shows on VCR, I talk to my sister. We still talk. 'The Rest' are people who I haven't been talking to for months, and has a huge likelihood that we will never talk again. Ya, ever again. Project mates, freshies and some primary school mates fill up this list, because we simply have no need of each other anymore. Maybe we talk when we see each other on the streets, but not on MSN. Looking at MSN this way makes me realise that MSN is quite a time-wasting event, IF not handled properly. Because whenever you go online, you scan through the huge list to look for people you like to talk to. But look at this, I got 125 'The Rest' peoples. Why am I even bothered to look at their nicknames and checking against their emails? Why am I even bothered to know whatever lies behind the meaning of their nick? I know now, that I've been meddling in businesses of 'The Rest' when I shouldn't. Sinful. You might ask like Heiwa did, why I never delete them if I'm not going to talk to them again. Well, you never know when paths cross again, and I find it an embarrassing thing to do if people do talk to you again and you have to re-add them. It doesn't hurt to have harmless people in your MSN, so that's why. I do delete people, and block them. Like the people from DND, or the people I added wrongly. And the VP of Hall 9. So now what I'll do now is I will only expand 'Cool People' while keeping 'Maybe We'll Still Talk' and 'The Rest' collapsed. Only when I need something will I expand 'Maybe We'll Still Talk'. Of course, 'The Rest' remains collapsed as long as I'm still alive and they don't find me. I can also see the online status of the people I like to talk with very quickly and effectively. And I don't have to guess what's happening around people (from their nicks) whom I don't enjoy talking to. That will make my life less complicated, because I have a lot to think about already. And my mind wander very fast. The last 'Cool People' has just gone offline because she needs to go home after work. So it's signalling me to go offline as well. Cool right? As I re-read this post, I realise I sound like a kid. What's wrong with me? Alright, time for some monster-killing action now.

Haha. Buddies, jiemeis and gal pals all sound similar to me though. 'Who are They' knowing that they are in the 'Who are They' list must be really who are they.

Wadda hell am I talking 'bout?

HA. Won't see lar. See also like that, I mean, that person would have to admit this kinda r/s man. 'We Like To Talk' is a 2-way thing - if you like to talk to me, most probably will be the same for me too.

I classify people very properly lo. I used to classify them by origins, ie the r/s with them, But I ended up scrolling up a long time to look for pple I like to talk, and can't resist thinking what the hell this guy's nick is about when I seriously couldn't be bothered with talking to him in a million years. It merely saves my time lar. hahaha

Don't worry dude.
