by Dino on Sep.02, 2008, under friendship
Some might (okay maybe two people) might have noticed I am not on facebook much anymore. Indeed that is true. I am avoiding facebook and any other kind of social communication until the end of the semester. I did not spend a lot of time on facebook or AIM in the past but collectively, it could add up. Even if it adds up to an hour extra every two weeks, I’ll take it if it will help me do better in my classes. For those who do need me, you know my number and my e-mail. I am on AIM but I am not on under my normal name but rather the one that ends with gmail.com Don’t know it? Look it up on facebook!

A couple of weeks ago I was having a conversation with a friend and he asked why we always talk about what is going on in his life but never discuss what is going on in mine? I could have simply said, ‘I don’t know,’ but that isn’t me and I replied back asking, ‘What was wrong with that?’ He explained to me that in a friendship both parties have to be open and honest and that included discussing what is going on in both persons’ lives not just one person’s. I think that is a great protocol for a friendship but I feel I am a pretty good friend too even though I refuse to share what is going on in my life.
