You have 35, 998 friends. So what?

When I first signed up with either friendster or facebook, I was actually intimidated by the number of online firends that others have. While mine is slowly reaching even a hundred, others have been expanding their circle to a figure that I impossibly reach.
Online FRIEND!!! Fine, maybe a quater of those are the one you really truly know, the one that you get to meet on daily basis or perhaps your ex-schoolmate or your long lost friend. What about the other half?
So, does a HUGE number MATTER? When in fact you hardly find any solace in any of those online friend, shall the term F.R.I.E.N.D be changed to online acquaintance? Hahaha.. I dont noe. You decide..
When the term friend is made use, it worth and value has been degraded. It has lost its true meaning because it is being too commercialised. Still however, those online friends may sometimes become a blessing in disguise. They do SOMEtimes..
Miraculously, some find their true love. Some even become fast-close-friend. While others are enjoying these benefits, few are in search still.. One of them is none other than me..
