Communities on the internet are all the same. I have been around and observed long enough to see that drama and cliques exsist on just about every type of chat forum. I used to be part of an "internet community" I guess you could say and chose to flee.
I came to cherrytap because it appealed to me in the sense that it was more grown up then myspace. I am a wife and mother of 2 children. I work part-time on the weekends on Grave shift, which screws with my sleeping. So for me the internet has become a way for me to keep in contact with the outside world while I am still at home with my children. Although I sit here and chat with people I still have time with my children and I am not out leaving my children with a sitter to get that adult communication. I have met some incredible people on this machine and some I call my friends. I have found, like I said in my previous blog, that it is hard on cherrytap to actually make friends with people. I started going to the mumms about 2 months ago and it seems that no matter how much I comment and try to talk to people they just don't want to acknowledge. I find it rather fustrating at times. I just end up leaving them and going off to surf the web. It is not that I have to be friends with everyone but sometimes it is nice to be included and not just wasting space if you know what I mean. So at the risk of taking the internet seriously I just set it down like I would a video game, and pick up later.
Although some people are ruthless and mean I try to be silly and fun. I actually love to laugh it is one of my most favorite things and if you talk to me you will find that I lol alot. Sometimes I sit here and miss the old days of when I used to chat on Yahoo and some of the friends that I did have on there.....but I stop and remember the high school drama. So you see everywhere is the same. You will not escape it, no matter where. If you do happened to befriend me I just might share with you the reason I left Yahoo. It is interesting trust me. So I guess this might not make sense and maybe you might think I am whining or whatever but I like to blog about my feelings so if you don't want to know don't read it...lol.
