How are you different on the Internet than your real, everyday life? Uh. I don't think I'm different at all... I think that people who are different on the internet & real life are just people who are shy. :3 Cuz when you are shy, it's easier to be yourself on the internet or brave-er. I dunno. I'm not shy.
What's your daily routine in your real, day-to-day life? Wake up, complain to the world on why school has to start so early, call friends, walk / get driven to school, hangout at school w/ friends for awhile in the morning (Chat, play cards, discuss things or w/e), go home (or go somewhere w/ friends), do homework/study, talk on the phone, see what family is doing, eat dinner, go on computer (msn <3), shower, eat junk food, be lazy, talk more on the phone because teh phone = l o v e, listen to music, look at school agenda (incase i forgot anything), go sleep-- repeat.
What's your daily routine when you're on the Internet? check email(s), go on msn, check if there are any of my favourite manga releases, listen to music, go on facebook, be bored, play a lame game named audition, go on soompi, read lame fanfiction, go to school site & check homework on internet (some of my teacher's have websites where they post homework -__-)
Do you think you have a different personality while being on the Internet? No. I thoughtt there was already this question o__o "how are you different on the internet than your real, everyday life" D: well, it's sort of similar. D: but I think I'm the same -__-
If you could, which world would you live in, your Internet life or your real life? Real life, duh. Well okay, other people might prefer internet life-- but you have to realise that, using hte internet, and sitting 24/7 on a chair and staring at a screen forever will damage your eyes and make you l-a-z-y. :3
Any specific reasons why you like the Internet? I like the internet because it's convenient, it's fast, and you can talk to multiple people at the same time, compared to the phone or something.

ps. i think homework should be put in the pre-college thread :3 but i dunno... :/

How are you different on the Internet than your real, everyday life?
what a great question!! i never thought of that before. but i dont think that im different.
if there IS a difference, it'll be that i can express myself more on the net because i can write it all out.
but in real life... im only able to express my feelings, my deep feelings and thoughts to close friends. (which is like... 3)
but online... i cant be as asian-ghetto as i am in real life. and online... i have to tone down my sense of humor,
because i know some people are sensitive, well... as in my real life too. so... yah.

How are you different on the Internet than your real, everyday life?

I don't act as shy as I am in real life because there's not much pressure...Since it's the internet. I also seem kinder because the person can never see me if I get irritated, and I don't like to post messages showing how angry I am anymore...

What's your daily routine in your real, day-to-day life?

I just go to school, come back home, do whatever I want. Usually computer, tv, and friends, Lol.

What's your daily routine when you're on the Internet?

Check emails, check any other social interaction sites, then browse around on soompi.

Do you think you have a different personality while being on the Internet?

Kind of...Like I said before, I'm not as shy and I seem nicer, sometimes.

If you could, which world would you live in, your Internet life or your real life?

Err...I'm not sure, Lol. I like the way I'm able to act on the internet better, but in real life, you can actually do more stuff and you also show the way you speak things. Sometimes my friends and I get into arguments because we both think we're getting angry at each other. The only thing is, when we read each other's messages, we imagine them saying it in the way we think in our mind. And sometimes, our mind imagines them saying it angrily. Even if they aren't...So whenever we sound like we're getting annoyed, we warn thay we really aren't, but that since we're not actually speaking it to each other we really just can't tell. Lol, sorry if that was confusing, haha.

Any specific reasons why you like the Internet?

All the games and stuff you can do on it. You can listen to music, watch videos, talk with friends, and do lots more. Internet's awesome, Lol.
