sleepless in batu pahat

it's been days since i had a proper quality sleep. quality sleep? sense a few eyebrows lifted. well, it's not really about how long you sleep but how well you sleep and how fresh you feel in the morning. i know that it's not the perfect definition of quality sleep but at least that's what i think of it.

i am among thousands or perhaps millions of people who suffer from sleep problems. i tend to wake up very early eventhough i sleep late at night. for instance, lets say that i slept at 4 o'clock in the morning but then i woke up at 8 am. i tried to continue my sleep but my body just won't let me. eventhough i feel very tired but i just won't sleep.

probably i think too much. sometimes i got so much on my mind but sometimes i get so blurred and so blank to the point that i don't do anything at all. this sunday, i spent all my time in the internet doing nothing at all. when you have broadband connection at home, you tend to put long hours on browsing webpages one by one to the point that you have no idea on what you're looking at.

talking about websites, i think the most addictive thing among people my age is friendster and myspace. it has nothing special apart from the fact that you could see other profiles of your friends and your friend's friend and so on. probably it's the fact that you could see other people stuff and pics to find out found out something about the girl/guy. and if you like to be friends with someone you're attracted to, you could easily send a message or add him/her as your friend. sounds boring right? but once you've started it, you're gonna get hook with it. when you start to see your list of friends and it keeps on adding up, you tend to find more people to add. then suddenly, it's somehow turns into a popularity contest. one person could even have multiple profiles because of the account limits. suddenly this friendster thing is a hobby among teenagers these day. i remembered and i quote from a father of my friend,"kids these day are so lucky, you got to see so many beautiful girls and get to know them just by clicking," well that's not the exact words but you get the idea. thinking about it, it does have some benefits but what significants does it make. does it change the world? does it change the way we work? does it change the way we think? does it change anything?

i think that's enough for me now. to those who stumbled upon my page, thanks for reading. thanks for even reading the headings. i know pages with long text bore you but i don't mind at all. after all, this is my personal ramblings and thoughts that sparkle from my mind.
