I'm supposed to be working...

but i can't. First of all, I got addicted to Facebook. Yeah I know...i should have joined eons ago. The thing is that I already have accounts in Friendster and myspace and God knows what else and I don't want to expose myself that much hahaha. Then one day my colleagues nagged me (again) to join and i received invitations from 8 high school friends that same afternoon, so i took it as a sign and reluctantly registered. And look where I end up now. It's the games that make it so addictive actually...so much that you actually log in there to play instead of chatting with friends haha.

But anyway...I'm not in the right mood to work. Maybe it's just PMS (i had my period yesterday), but I was recently hit by the realization that no one but my editors seem to be interested anymore in the clone story i've been writing in the past 2 years. Now i don't need many comments...I know my ability and my story has limited focus anyway. I just want to keep my small circle of readers...heck, even if only one or two people comment apart from my editors, it would've been enough to keep me going. But no one comment lately aside from my editors, and with all the complications of reality, writing story that no one reads doesn't seem to worth the efforts, no matter how much I love the characters. Still, it breaks my heart to think that i have to shorten the story. I love my virtual boyfriend so much that stopping to write will feel like a break-up to me. Unfortunately, life doesn't revolve around the O stories.

Ah well...I guess I better stop procrastinating now if i don't want to make things worse for myself.

Well, more people read, they just don't post. Ah well. It's your choice. Sorry to hear you'll be shortening the story, but I understand. And heck, for all we know, there won't be anyone around to comment, or even read, O4.

As for facebook, I don't play the games so don't be offended if I ignore anything you send me. I'm like you...too many place I frequent online so those games do nothing but waste time for me.
