Connecting People.

It's amazing how this tag line from Nokia has become a reality nowadays. Gone are the days when you can say I couldn't reach you because you were "out of the house." After a couple of weeks droning at work in the office and more work at home, my weekend turn out very eventful than I had expected.

Coming home on a Friday night after playing badminton with my officemates (as part of my 2005 resolutions), I would normally have taken a shower and gone to bed, but I decided to check my mails while waiting for FRIENDS on StarWorld. I never did get to check my mails because 2 of my friends' also online and we've begun chatting. It would normally have been the 3 of us goofing around but 1 on them has a dilemma with another friend from a group. It was about a girl. He's asking for our opinion on what's the best thing to do with a situation like that. The conversation was serious for about 2 minutes and it turned crazy, as always when where "talking" to one another. Too bad I had to work the next day or else.

Saturday, after work, I also "bumped" into a friend I haven't seen or spoke to for awhile. She left for the States in 1998, or was it 1999 and hasn't come home yet. Though we only spoke a short while, she was able to relay us the good news that she already gave birth to her 2nd boy a few weeks prior. We spoke for a few minutes more before telling me she has to sleep already.

I'm really thankful that it's easier to keep in touch with anyone nowadays. No matter where you are, you're never out of reach, except maybe when you're in hell. No phones there, I figure.
