Butterfly Effect


Singapore is a tiny island, known to most who have some basic geographical knowledge.
Singapore is tiny to the point that's scary, known to me.

When I first noticed on Facebook that every single of my local friend is somehow connected to one another, I was terrified.
I feel being watched, I feel that there is a big black net above me and small little voices coming from every corner.
It's noisy and disturbing.

Imagine one day you slept with a guy, who happened to be your ex-boyfriend's ex-girlfriend's current-boyfriend.
Well, I never got myself sucked into such a hole. Nevertheless, such a thing is always possible and obviously happening.
Just look around.

Let's recall the classic saying that "Gossip is the foundation of friendship."
So whenever there is a relationship status change on facebook, (let alone the exposition of tons of "bad habit" or secrets), the number of friendships increases vaguely. So do the phone bills.

Amazing butterfly effect.

Sometimes this social networking thing is too much for me, no matter when it comes to Facebook, MSNSpace or other shits like that.

But, let's not play the anti-social card, 'cause i am not.
