An important realization

....it's not as serious as the heading sounds like, so don't give up reading just yet! It's not more than a few weeks back since I discovered Facebook (or decided to check out that thing I had denied for a couple of years... at least!) and suddenly I came in touch with friends of mine from all over the world. From Down Under (Australia), Germany, England, The USA...and last, but not least México. And that's where this so-called realization of mine is playing an important part. Thanks to the invention of internet, Facebook, MSN, Google etc...I can keep in touch with all these amazing people whom I have met along the road over the years and even though we haven't seen for a while, I was today invited to my friend's wedding in Mexico in a few months time. Isn't that just so cool? The conversation I had with this far far away, but close, friend of mine also brought back sooo many memories...good memories of the past nearly 13 years...it took me back the memory lane to the very first time I went abroad and put my feet in an airplane that day in August 13 years ago on my way to spend one whole year far away from my family and safe environment here in Norway as an exchange student in Mexico. 

I woke up this morning, kinda in a lousy mood as everyone can do once in a while, I guess. But I made myself get up, have the important first cuppa coffee, turned on my computer & then my dear amiga Mexicana found me and there I had this "realization" about the amazing world of internet (as long as one use it properly, that is)...and then my day turned out to be just awesome! I even decided to make my own blog...however I am not sure yet where I'll be going with it...there are plenty of good blogs out there and I didn't really plan on doing this...however, be patient with me as I am all new in this "game" and have to find my way;)
