That Facebook (Part 2)

*Open door*

Sighs.... "Home sweet Home"

You drop your bag on the table and check your handphone for messages or missed call. Nothing. Hmmm... After the having hints of thoughts of friends' responses to your comments for the whole day the annoying 15 minutes of facebook you had this morning just sinks. You open your laptop to see the your facebook homepage is filled with newsfeeds of 'How well do you know me?' quizzes.

Unless you have been under a coconut shell for the past month or so, you would have noticed the numerous amount of quizzes set up by your facebook friends. Maybe you were on a hiatus because of exams (a sour breakup maybe?). Or maybe... *evil gril*

You're just pissed?



"WHAT!?! After all the comments and 'like's I've clicked.... ONLY ONE!?!", you thought in horror. As if things are going to get better when you click on the '2 Friend Requests'.

*click*

"W T F/H !?!"

"Siapakan ni?"

"Nama udah tah ku inda kenal... Gambarnya lagi inda ku tau siapa!!"



Names are C. 'The Poker King'Y.G. and Maria 'Ozawa' CX from top to bottom (fictional names not intended to harm anyone but for intentions to entertain).

"Apakan ni? The Poker King? CYG? Cayang kali ertinya. Gambarnya lagi", were your initial guesses.

*click*

"Ummm.. Four pics."

*click*

"Woot?! All four pictures don't show his/her face. Macam mana kan tau siapa ni. Ish~ Ku poker ko karang pakai lamp mu atu!"

If only there is one icon I can click to comment on his/her picture I would certainly click it!



*back* and looks at the second request.

"Eh sadang jua dih buat gambar Jesika Alba. Namanya lagi. Maria Ozawa. CX lagi tu. Charles Xavier apa kah kan di buat nya. Nada konektion langsung," you thought.

Same goes for the second request. Only pictures of hot and sexy Pop Star. Decision time. To add or not? Since you and Maria 'Ozawa' only have 3 friends in common you decided to ignore it. Whilst 'The Poker King' and you have 23 mutual friends and most of the are your friends from college, so you sent him a message.

"Hi, I'm afraid I don't recognize you. I do apologise for my poor memory."

*click* -sent-

Having no idea who is who - no one really notices anything you post although you tagged them - your comments on friends posts just gets a ;) - and your 5 pending friend request haven't been replied by your old seatmate back in primary school. You wondered whether your lack of popularity or your bad reputation during middle school or college is the cause of all these drama. As you ponder your self-esteem seeps away slowly. Just as this morning, you felt you've had enough of facebook for the time being.

You paused.

*click* on the notification.

All that lost self-esteem comes back and you feel a part of something. A friend has tagged you in a photo.

*click*
