how it started..

huh.. so here it goes. i got this friend of mine.. who is kinda geek in her special sort of way..its not that she knows everything(most of the times she just fake up things) but nevertheless she knows more about this computer n Internet stuff. did i told you her name?? no?? OK she is Tanvi.
if u ask me what she is like i would never be able to explain her. she knows about different stuffs n yet she is interesting enough to talk to. she is outgoing but yet sometimes i feel like she got this secret tech. lab in her house because i never make out what she is upto.
yeah i know i am drifting from the topic, so back to the topic.

So i sort of ask her how you go about this Internet n stuff. you see i was already 20 without knowing a thing about the lifeline of the today's world.yeah i know this all is sounding real lame a reason, so I'll tell you the truth. She and my best friend (Nikita) were really deep into this Internet stuff. you see they were online all day long. making friends, doing cool stuff on net and whenever we use to get together they use to talk about the new friends they made on net. How every boy on yahoo chat was after them.The number of fake id's they got. How cool or silly some guy was. It all was so fascinating. you can compare it with some sort of modern world fairy tale.I was fascinated.Besides you can get to know about everything on net. i told you how much i like to know about things n the Internet was the source to all of it. sort of a treasure for me.

so on the very day when my summer vacation started i was at Tanvi's house. After one hour when i went home i was with a yahoo id, a Google id, and an orkut account. woah! even today it feels so good..!
now its really easy for you to guess how wonderful my rest of vacation went. i was on a roller coaster.. new friends, old friends, fake id's. it was so much fun. and as good i am at learning thing i was a pro soon. but alas only at logical things n techie stuff not how human emotion works.. n thats how i fell in "THE GREAT INTERNET TRAP".
