I don't understand why some people like giving one word replies or replies with some lame smileys or worst, sounding like totally mono-tune? I appreciate it and can fully understands it if the person is busy or uninterested in chatting by telling me so but I can't understand it when they give really lame replies.

You make an effort to think and then type something constructive, u make an effort to initate a conversation and then u get a reply like "haa", "oic", "lol", "is it", "haha ok" or whatever u ask, the person answer u like some machine.

"Never go out today?"
"No"

"U watched that show yet?"
"Ya its nice"

"Boring weekend today"
"Go out loh"

You don't feel like u're talking to some robots/machines/computers? I do! I know I'm not necessary a comedian who can make people laugh, I know I'm not blessed with an infinite sense of humor, but surely u can just tell me straight in the face.....

1. Ur busy

2. U don't wanna chat

3. U don't feel like chatting

4. Whatever reason u have

Surely that isn't that hard to type out is it? I've written about such an entry before but I can't help bringing this up again. I believe it happens to everyone and it's something very rude and lame to be honest. I myself do it sometimes too without knowing it but I always make a point to at least tell the person I'm closing the chat window, even if it means cocking up some excuses. It's better than making the person feel like he/she is holding u at knife-point forcing u to chat isn't it? I'm going to do the same to these people back, totally pisses me off!

My msn list is filled with quite afew white elephants and all the way the list is getting smaller and it will continue to get smaller! No time to be sentimental anymore, delete button rules the day!

On a sidenote, I've been thinking hard about what I'm going to study as a part time degree next year whilst still doing my NS. It boils down to 2 choices - designing and journalism (media). I don't wana make the same mistake as I did while choosing my course for poly after O'Levels. It's quite a dilemma this time because I'm good at both, they are both my subjects of interests and I can definitely see myself as a journalist and or a designer in the future.

There's a saying that goes by... "Get a job u like and coming to work everyday is like a hobby". It's so true man, and I also believe doing something ur good at or interested will also mean the bucks starts to come in. I don't wanna dread going to work every morning even if the salary is fantastic. I would rather do something I love for a normal salary. Of course the money is important - in Singapore it always is! But so long it isn't some obscene amount it will be okie. I have about a month and a half to decide before submitting my application forms and it's such a tough and important decision! Bahhhh
