I was already happy with MSN and Skype, really. I have both installed on my mobile phone and laptop.
MSN is fun since most of my friends from Brazil and other countries are there on a daily basis, so if I feel like chatting to them a little, I can! If I need to ask somebody something, it´s all about picking a name, typing and clicking ´send´...
In a nutshell, it´s handy, instant, user-friendly, cool and a bit addictive too... I blame that orange color flashing and that sound that indicates you´ve got a message! :oP
But then, technology kept going and we´ve got Facebook! There are some other social networks out there; Facebook seems to be the best/most popular so far.
It was through Facebook that I kept in touch with a friend of mine from Australia. We met each other a decade ago - a while, right?
As a decade equals 10 years (!!!), we don´t quite remember the details anymore! hehe
What matters to me is that Facebook brought us together. I´ve been following her pictures and updates, she´s been following mine. And one day, there was this message to me saying she was coming over for a visit!
I introduce you to Ayako, the most beautiful Japanese girl I´ve ever known! :o)
Don´t forget the definitions according to dictionaries, readers:
- a decade = 10 years (plural: decades);
- a century = 100 years (plural: centuries);
- a millennium = 1000 years (plural = millenniums or millennia).
According to MY definition after hours on end catching up and squeezing sweet Ayako...
... a decade ago = yesterday!!!
