What about the starting a conversation going with the familiar stranger that you meet? Stop “acting blur” (that’s colloqial English for playing dumb with a hint of nonchalance) Heh heh

When it becomes compelling to you to gather the people from your past to bask in nostalgia. You’ll do more than just get on friendster for it, right?

What’s more useful? Lamenting the loss of old time friends? Envy others’ contact lists? Get on others’ contact lists? Make your contact list bigger? Oh you get the idea….

Look out, for NGR, the person next to you on the bus or train could be the one connecting you to some of your school buddies.

In any case, we are connected by 6 level of differences to anyone in this planet. The right path to your old friends is out there somewhere. Search out the Connector. Read The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell

Ironically, there are some people (for e.g. me), if they chanced upon a primary or secondary schoolmate whom they have not met for donkey years, first impression will be like, “hmmm…so familiar”. The next thing before you know it, both parties act blur, brush past each other’s shoulder and moved on.

Personally I am full of envy with some of my friends when they told me that they are still in contacts with their primary schoolmates. So far I managed to locate ONE of my primary school classmate through friendster. Yes, I am keeping in contact with her, thank God.

Thanks jes.
