Gone for who knows until when. // Friday, August 24, 2012
Assalamualaikum everyone! I'd just like to update you guys about my current situation. I've been planning on this for sometime now, and I've decided that I'm going MIA. Yes, I'm going to disappear. Not from the world, oh heavens no. But from socializing. First of all, my phone. I'm done texting. My phone's been extinct for decades now, and I don't miss it one bit. A lot of people have been asking why I didn't reply their texts or why it went straight to voicemail when they tried calling me. Here's my answer. I don't own a phone anymore, people who have been texting me or calling me and people who keep asking where my phone went. Bear that in mind. Don't ask what's wrong with it, where it went, why I'm not buying a new one. For one, my number just has too many problems and I'm darn fed up to deal with all of its shizz. And second, I just lost my interest in having a phone. So there, that enough good for a reason? Also, my Facebook account has been deactivated, again, for the umpteenth time. I'm not sure if I'm going to reactivate it. Who knows, maybe I'll be gone for good. Anyways, I don't even know half the people that are "friends" with me on Facebook, so they won't miss now will they? And finally, my greatest addiction of all, Twitter; home of the bluebirds. I created my Twitter account earlier this year, on January 22nd to be exact. I'd no idea it'd be this addictive. Twitter had become so addictive, I'd tweet hundreds and hundreds of random, not to mention (but I'll mention it anyway) nonsensical tweets per day. It's unhealthy and time-consuming. I'm losing my focus and my grades are slipping and well, I guess I have no other choice than to stop tweeting. I'm not deactivating, I'm just having Aiesyah change my password like I had her do in June. She also asked me to change her password too, and deactivate her account right after. She and I will be gone after Sunday, just so you know. I know it might seem like I'm breaking off all connections and I understand that I might fail to keep in touch with my old friends, and loved ones far from where I am now. But hey, they're still close to the heart, right? I understand fully and I'm prepared to face the consequences. Pfft. Face the consequences? Haha! Why does it sound like I'm doing such a bad deed? I guess, I've just been so attached to the internet, I've subconsciously considered it something sacred. I shouldn't have done that, if I did, I mean. I know I'll miss being a netizen a whole lot but this is for the greater good, as the people in Spiderman would always say. And anyway! It's not like I won't be online twenty-four-seven. I'll be online, not online Twitter or Facebook, but on Tumblr and of course here! If you want to get in touch with me, feel free to ask for my home phone number or just ask me on Tumblr.
See, I might just end up like this if I don't leave Twitter's nest.
I've realized that I waste way too much time online and there's no reason for me to keep this unhealthy habit. Think about it, the logic thing to do is break free, isn't it? I should be doing way more productive stuff like revising and studying and (Duh!) my homework. Aside from that, I'm just tired of spending my weekends warming chairs and worsening my eye sight by sitting around staring at a computer screen all day. One of these days, I'm going to go jogging or ride a bike or take a stroll out at the park or all in one day, if possible. I want to wake up and have my lungs breathe in fresh air, straight from green trees. Don't you think that'd be wonderful? Just the thought of it is. My decision is final. Lol like you guys are protesting or something. Try it, you'll feel good. Peace be upon you. |
