MySpace

Well, I recently joined the myspace phenomina (Which I have violently protested against for almost a year, since I first heard about it... ). So, my thoughts are these.

It seems like it's just a waste of time. I feel depressed seeing the "You have no friends" statement (Althought as of writing this, I have 3), etc. I find myself logging in there frequently, and seeing that nothing's really happened... Grr. Oh well, such is life.

Still, I can see how such a thing can be useful. But, more and more, I'm deciding that it's just not for me. My stay on it might be long-lived, or short-lived, but, well, at least I can now say I've given it a shot.

Cool jobs

So, I've been thinking recently, I have one of those jobs that seems to be really cool. However, the details of it are rather boring. I've realized alot of jobs are like that.

Take, for instance, an astronaut. They seem to have a very cool job, they get to fly into space. However, there's a catch. Before they are allowed to fly, they must run simluators, to the point that most people would go insane. It's probably the biggest releif for them to finally go into space, because then they don't have to work on the simulators, they can just finally do their job.

So, the next time you see someone's job you envy, think again. It might not be as cool as you would think.

Friendship

Well, recently I started an account on Myspace.com (Username tuvas_21, if your curious). And, while I was doing that, there came the question of "Who would you like to meet".

Well, I had recently been thinking about what a friend means. And I came to a few conclusions. Friendship is something that is one of our greatest things that we have here on this earth, and most people take advantage of it.

I passed some time without friends, and let me tell you, it is not a fun thing. But recently, now that I've started to have more friends, I've become more worried about the quality of them, as opposed to the quantity.

There are two types of friends really. There are the type of person you like to pass time with, go to the movies, go bowling, etc. They are people that to pass time with is fun, and they are quite useful.

And then, there is another type, the type that is much deeper, to which I will refer to as a true friend. These are they with whom you can pass hours just talking with about anything. This are they who help you when you are down, who will help to lift you up. They don't take advantage of you, rather, they value greatly the time that you spend with them.

Well, there's my thoughts on that subject.
