Thread: The world beckons

  1. #1

    Moomba The world beckons

    Ive noticed I spend some good time on the internet and wondered how many people do so also. So what I began to think was what could be keeping so many people who do so also (EOFF) from the rest of the world, whats stopping you from being an ambassador or the like

    Here is my question right now what can you be doing other then the internet or being at home for that matter

    Come on people if your so bored with everyday dull, stale modern life and the only thing good about this age is technology as you really cant be a sky pirate to pass the time or anything then instead get some money and go out and explore the world! Get lost somewhere adventure is just beyond your coast!

    Except for the fact that most people on this message board are nerdy teenagers who can't afford it.

    If I didn't have to worry about rent and bills, yeah. I don't have much drive to do anything exciting sans cook dinner after I get home from work anyway. =P

    Well what keeps me online a lot of the time is the fact that where I live in London is so far from anything decent to do and if I go out drinking any more than I already do I think I might get put in an AA meeting by someone even my best mate told me I drink way too much once and he matches me drink for drink normally.

    As for what I would love to be doing right now if I wasn't online? Well theres seeing the world certainly but the factor of cash comes in to this big time. I'm planning to go Austrailia this september and today a friend of mine in Belgium asked that I try and find time to go out with him and his mates (who I also know) which means going Belgium at some point this year too. Honestly I'd love to move to Thailand or Hawaii permanently but failing that I'd move anywhere that isn't London, visiting London is cool my mates all have a good time in doing so but even they mostly agree that living in London is totally different.

    I could be working on my dissertation... but I'm still too hungover from new years and the thought of working causes me to assume the fetal position and whimper.

    Internet is fun and I'm a hedonist, so I've got no complaints.

    And I'm getting a good degree so I can get a good job so that I can go to [strike]China[/strike] Mars.

    Intranet gives me my required degree of social interaction without setting foot outside my door (with the exception of boyfriend)! ^_^ Yay laziness.

    Seriously, internet makes me a hermit. I'm much more motivated to spend more time with real people when I don't have the intranet to occupy my time XD~

    ANd thats why we all love our lazy little Jojee.

    And I wouldn't be doing much, as its winter In Idaho, and I'm f'ing cold. And of course lazy. Can't forget Lazy.

    Might as well add unmotivated to the list.

    Hmm, well i just finished school and life just got a whole lot harder...

    It's summer now for us in the south of the world, so my parents say I have no excuse to sit on the internet all day, and that I need to go out and get a job to pay for the 'living costs' they're gonna start charging me. Damn.
