personal bounderies

I have 140 so called friends in my Facebook profile. Compared to the amount of friends that my friends have, I seem to be a good average. But ironcially Facebook does not seem to be a mirror of the real world here and the word "friend" got through facebook another meaning. Some of my "friends" have almost 600 "friends" and others just 20.
 Today I got a friendrequest from a person that I never heared about. I was wondering who she was but I declined her friendship. I set a personal boundery that I will only accept people as friends, that I have met at least once in my live. On the other hand I am friend with people that I haven't seen for a long time and that under normal circumstances I would never have contact again. But anyway it's interesting to be up-to-date with some fotos or funny links. Maybe our path will cross again.

Ending up in nonsense

Actually I am having a lot to do.  A job, a baby to take care of, my household and even my Master thesis that I need to write. I don't have a TV at home for not wasting time and watch senseless stuff. But the problem is that I am spending a lot of time in Internet instead. OK, I am having a job in an internet company and I use internet to be able to stay in contact with friends and family. But again and again I realise that I turn to facebook. And even if I don't have anything to say, nobody to write to, I return to this social network side out of curiosity and read status updates. Today I clicked a link to a video from a flighing fish. I was watching it eagerly when I am asked my self: What I am doing here? Isn't this a great waste of time to watch crazy product descriptions or videos that I wasn't looking for or do I just open my mind? I am not sure yet if I count it for good or bad. But at least I took it as an initiation to write a Blog about my personal facebook experiences.
