These days, I find myself hopelessly addicted to Facebook. I can be on it for hours – throwing chickens at my cousins, or choosing mysterious gifts for my friends, or feeding my pet giraffe or find out who’s friends with whom and what they have done to each other. To me, it’s a life-saver since it makes my life a little more interesting, and of course, for a pragmatic reason – cutting down on electricity consumption!
You see, ever since my mum went into a fit when the electricity bill went to a high of $300 because I was on MSN forever (yea, right!), I find myself in a dilemma. Living in my parents’ house now means I’ll have to follow their rules, so I face the obligation of doing my part in cutting down electricity consumption, but I so need to chat with my friends. And since I’m on 24-7 surveillance by Her Royal Accountant (which means I can’t sit in front of my laptop typing furiously away on MSN), Facebook became my alternative communication tool with the ‘outside’ world. Well, no worries about hurting my productivity rate as my only productivity is probably sleeping and watching TV. Unfortunately, being on 24-7 surveillance also means finding myself snooping around my laptop whenever Her Royal Accountant’s not watching (duh, to log on to Facebook, what else?)! But do I really have to know who has thrown a chicken at me or wrote on my wall? Erm, well, it would be nice to know...
Oh and by the way, have you signed up yet? Remember to "add" me so that I can throw a chicken at you, yea? *LOL*
