i know, my blog is really dull

let's face it
my life is not that interesting
and i dont think i should tell the whole world about what i'm doing today
u have to set boundaries between the real world and the cyber world(do ppl still use 'cyber world'? it sounds so lame. haha)
anyhoo, i believe that we should set limits on what ur allowed to say on the net.
oh well, that's what i (stand/stood?) for
hence, i am strongly against the use of twitter
hahaha
don't be surprised if i did have my own twitter someday(i'm just easily influenced by others:p)
but as for now, i think twitter is too personal
cmon, do u really need to tell everyone whatever that comes across ur mind or whatever ur doin at the exact moment?
do u think that ur that important?
i dont mind celebrities having their own twitter just so they can stay connected with their 'fans"
but do others mere, meek mortals need to tell the world that they're having stomach-ache or had pizza for dinner?
do u really believe that everyone including ur close friends need to know all that?
u already have ur own facebook, friendster, myspace, blogs, flickr etc..
and now twitter??
i need to take a break
we all need to take a break
do we really need all these stuff interfering with our lives?
sometimes i feel like we're living for the sake of this much hyped,short-lived internet craze thingy (if u get what i mean)
for example, i've noticed that most of us, myself included, trying hard to put on different clothes, travel to different places for the sake of getting great pictures to put on facebook.a nd we get all excited by getting comments from someone else
seriously, do we care about what others think of us that much?
are we really a bunch of self indulged people who really believes that the world care about u n really need to know aout ur whereabouts or else the world will end.
that might be an exxageration, a hyperbole but thats what happening now.
and it aint pretty.

Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people.

Today I am grateful for...
the yummy spaghetti I had for lunch(for 2 days in a row. I am so broke!). I am grateful for having the ability to cook and interest in cooking (though i'm no Jamie Oliver:P) Alhamdulillah. Thank you Allah.
