Breathe in for luck...

Well today has been eventful... I went to work at 9.30 am and finished work at 12.30pm, pretty short day, we didn't even have lunch at work, was pretty awesome to be honest, and we still had a 20 min break in the middle, I have loved this first training week, has been so chilled out, and on Monday we don't even start until 10am! I have also applied to be a first aider so that's also pretty awesome!

I don't have much else to say on the work matter and the day is by no means over, I think we might have friends over, I'm not 100% sure though as nobody has actually confirmed, they have just said "maybe" so maybe we will, maybe we won't! lol

So, instead of boring you senseless I am going to talk about e-relationships, as you know, I have a fiancé, he's awesome, and I love living with him, and we actually met through the Internet, now I know that sounds clichéd or whatever but actually not on a dating site, and we only spoke briefly online before we actually met up, because it was an open invitation to alternative people in our local area, only about 5 people turned up, but it as a good night out, and I met the love of my life, which is amazing to be honest. Just one of the many unexplained things in life I suppose, to meet the one person you want to spend the rest of your life with!

I think the Internet is an amazing place, It brings people together that would have previously never been able to speak and share ideas, this is amazing to me, people in my parents generation has to phone people, and to call people, you had to know them personally, where as now, a complete stranger can communicate about whatever topic might come up, they can see me on a webcam too, so they'd be able to see me laugh at their jokes or cry at sad stories, if we were really close at least (I don't usually just give out IM information willy nilly) but on public forums like blogs or chat rooms, they can definately choose to participate in a huge range of discussions.

I have friends online I have know for years, I have never met them in person, but they are people who I talk too a lot, and they are considered by me to be my friends... Are they though? I've never created a memory with them, never been to the pub or hung out with them, but still I consider them to be friends! I suppose it's not the physical that makes people connect it's the stuff they have in common, so maybe people are our friends because we consider a cirtain amount of subjects just as interesting as each other and we can chat for hours on our similarities, and our differences, and laugh and cry and have fun in one anothers company.

I don't know, most of this is babble to be completely honest with you, sorry about the complete lack of sense right here! lol

I hope to hear from you about your comments on the matter...
