salaam and a very good day to all! (^__^)v

so I dropped my laptop last week, and was not able to connect to the Internet until today.
horror, I know.

I wasn't able to go on Youtube, get updates from friends on Facebook or Twitter, I was so lost without the Internet that I even resorted to watching the television - which I had not done in months, believe me. sure, some things can be done via mobile but when I realized that I wasn't able to update the blog as early as I would like, I even tried updating using my mobile phone but due to these genetically fat fingers, I gave up on the first try.

see what I'm trying to imply here is the fact that we depend too much on the Internet that we sometimes forget the realm of certainty which is the reality.

when was the last time that you fully participate in a face-to-face conversation without glancing at your phone even once? that time has long gone, my friends. getting stripped off the benefit of having super fast wifi even for a few days has taught me a valuable lesson in communication, and in appreciating life as it is. gone were the days where kids used to go out and play with their friends and the only thing that they have to play with is their own imagination. nowadays, kids as young as those in pre-school own their own iPads and wont even interact with other kids for fear of getting dirt on their tshirt. what a shame.

but I must admit, in keeping up with times the Internet play a huge part. and that is why we should always be thankful and always always remember not to drop our laptop at any circumstances.

until next time, toodles~
