Making up for lost time It seems to be an inherent behaviour for some people who have somehow discovered the joy of.. say, using the computer or playing games of recent and because they felt a part of them was lost in their earlier days, they hurriedly go to the extreme and do it in excess.
I'm not sure if that holds true for my mom, but she is DEFINITELY addicted to the internet now, specifically Facebook.
Gone are the days where she sits contently on her bed, munching on titbits and getting a dose of romance or the days where she watches the time to catch her soap operas. Only to be replaced with lying on the bed with the laptop, yelling when the wireless somehow got disconnected and calling out every 6 hours 'I need to go collect my wages now!'. On the plus side, she is now with a more cheerful disposition, has more to look forward to (most important factor to get through the days! in her case, 6 hours), has more friends and no longer feels like life is too routine i.e. working for us (as she sees it).

All this sprouted due to my stolen passport case in December 07. Silver lining indeed...
Interesting to note is a certain someone, going all out on the new found 'joy' as well. Honestly, I find it really weird tho.
p/s: 7 more days to 7 years anniversary for this blog. cool no? ;)
