Summer has come and gone, and now the rainy season has begun. More typhoons will be paying us visit now and then and you’ll be thankful for the “no classes today” announcements. Sure, you’ll be warm and cozy at home while the wet and dreary world outside pounds on your windows. However, the downside is you’ll be stuck with nowhere to go and nothing to do, which puts a damper on your unexpected holidays. Before you start wishing for the rains to go away, think again. Start up that computer and let yourself be sucked into the cyber frenzy of things to do on the net.
Chat
You’re bored. Either all your friends are stuck at home or you’re tired of talking on the phone or texting with the same people day after day after day. Go online, enter a chat room and viola! There’s a whole new population of people you can interact with. Exchange views about anything and everything. At first, chat lingo may seem to be a foreign language for you, but pretty soon, you’ll be trading asls (age, sex, location) and brbs (be right back) with other chat addicts.
E-Mail
It’s the rainy season and you’ve got lots of hours at home on your hands. This is the time for you to get in touch with the people you haven’t been able to communicate with because of your busy schedule. Send them an e-mail. That will surely be appreciated.
