Help!

I can't remember who introduced me to facebook but I remember getting too many invites from friends that I got fed up and decided to try it out. I registered and didn't bother to do anyting to about it for about 8 months or so. I actually forgot my password. I was remember laughing at my friend one time when she was sooooooo hooked on Hi5 and thought she was really sad. I thought social networks like that was meant for teenagers who had plenty time on their hands. Well, that was before Facebook came along. Things seem to have moved on from then and you'll be shocked at who you can come across on facebook. Don't be shocked find your dad's friend or even grandma's friend on there o. It's a shocker, I tell ya! I actually also thought that facebook was for desperate singles who had given up hope on finding a suitable other half but whatever your reason for being on facebook, I have come not to be too shallow minded as to pigeon hole everyone. Facebook is for a variety of things. It could be for dating, networking and whatever you so choose.

Well, I didn't particularly choose facebook but that seems like story now, doesn't it? The fact is that i;m a member! I didn't like it at first but as time grew and boredome grew more, I found myself spending considerable time on that thing. Infact, I can't do a day without going on that thing now. Yes! It's thing! That thing is so bad that they even give you an option of bible verse application so as not to feel bad that you are spending good time which you could be spending relating to God on there. I have to say though that I quite like that application as it has enabled me know more verses by heart.

Okay, my main reason for this post is to seek help. Yes, help! because I am hooked! I have almost all the applications now. I even today added the coolest person application - how sad! I wanna get out of there but there also could be a lot of benefit from there in terms of business. I have come across some old secondary school mates who wants me to help plan their events(a lot of them still sees me as the fly girl I used to be in school so they think i'm still pretty cool which is really nice). I have made new friends also and recently had an admirer. I can't believe this! I actually like the guy! He is fit! Oh! I am sad!

Anyway, I need help and pronto too!

I have been hanging around facebook for a while, and sometimes I ask myself that question "Now what?"

Unlike myspace, I have made an informed decision that anyone I add as a friend in facebook must be someone I know well, and have met. For me, its become a tool to seek out long lost friends, and so far it has worked.
