My life style???

I just realise something... I like to stay in front of computer.. to check mail, to browse Internet, to edit anything in friendster, to write blogs, to chat w/ friends, but it doesn't mean that my life is that bored! I mean.. it doesn't mean I stay at my room in front of computer ALL the time!!! I mean.. I do still go out w/ families, still meet out w/ friends, still attend any party/reunion/anything else.. I mean.. yes, I admit I like to stay in front of computer, but I do still in touch w/ outside world. I still go out of S'pore at least one time a year.. I mean.. I still have my life and Internet bring me out w/ the outside world, connecting me w/ my friends who are out there.. (anywhere around the world), and still communicate directly w/ people I love. I mean.. 'cos when I saw my own pics.. I just realise lorr.. Last time, when I studied abroad, money was not something to waste around.. so after finished the class & had my dinner, the only place I went was the computer room at 4th floor of the school's building and chatted w/ friends or family members 'til the closing time. I did that almost everyday, especially on weekend (almost spent my whole weekend down there) - previously we had to go there to get connected, but now, I think they've installed wi-fi in the dorm so they don't have to go computer room just to get online.. Reason of staying there for weekend?? 'Cos I stayed on the mountain. If I wanna go down the mountain to buy groceries, I had to take the 'funiculaire' or tram (in French) and it costs Sfr 7 (if I not wrong) per single trip or Sfr 14 for return trip. There was only one small shop near our school and the things there cost higher than supermarket. So.. I prefered saving my money by staying in the computer room - 'til my friend called me 'Ms. Computer', hehehe... Eventually, I still managed to have mid term break w/ other 8 schoolmates to Germany w/ the money saved on those weekend. Then, when doing my first stage, I started to earn back the money and started to spend that money on other short holidays to other cities. I didn't dare to go to many places since the cost of dollar was jumping up so high in 1998. Even if I went, I took the minimum cost but still enjoying my trip =D And this time.. I still love to go online and it doesn't make me a computer freak.. I am still who I am.. still connected to many friends - in real life.. still travelling out - not stuck in the room all the time.. etc.. Suddenly I just love the way I live.
I went to Starbuck just now and it reminds me the time I spent when I was in US. Inside it, I felt like I was in US.. hahaha.. 'cos of the decor was all the same. Perhaps, I just missed the living style in US. For American, drinking Starbucks are just the same as Singaporean drinking kopi/teh in S'pore. They have it almost everyday. I just missed the feeling and just thinking.. how if I stayed there.. how nice would it be!!! Can buy my own car (dun need so good, as long as it doesn't gimme trouble and 'auto' is more than enough.. hahaha..), rent or buy own apartment, go for work 5 days a week, go movies one a week, or read a book at Starbuck, etc. And it's better if I have lots of friends down there so that we can go to each other's apt for cooking.. or chit chatting.. or shopping together, and many other things.. I like to invite my friends to my place for dinner.. I like those gathering things... The feeling was warm and really close...
Hey, wakie2... hehehe.. wow.. just being in Starbucks then I felt like in US.. Maybe if I go to Kopitiam in US (in case they have it), then I'd feel like in S'pore??? hahahaha....
K'lah.. it's 12.40am already.. gotta take a rest now.. and today.. I feel good =D
