Come one, Come All -- Global MyLot Eyeball

This just popped up in my head just when I am about to sleep. I just need to let it out my system... I know how hard it is to set up a meeting. Even between two people who will meet up will mostly encounter hassle. I'm just curious if there would be one, will you attend? Will you be the same person as you are in myLot world? As for me, I will have a little difficulty talking in person since I'm not fluent in speaking English. Even though I'm thick and a blabbermouth, I may find it awkward to be in front of people from different cultures. Yet it would be a great pleasure meeting these wonderful people who have been my "virtual" friends. What do you think my fellow mylotters from around the globe? Will it ever be possible to have a Mylot Eyeball of all the members, active or non-active?

I am totally different online to offline my friend, you wouldn't recognize me if I went to a meeting because I am the total opposite, I would be shy, wary and probably wouldn't say much! I am not a social person and I find it extremely hard to socialize offline, online, no problems I easily make friends, in the outside world I haven't got the confidence or self esteem. I would love to meet my friends off Mylot trouble is it's not possible as I am in the UK and most of my friends are in the USA and other countries! So setting up a meeting place would certainly NOT be easy, but it's a wonderful thought!

You certainly come across as friendly, warm, bubbly, electric and exude confidence, there is no doubt in my mind that you are perfect for the job! You can do it, you actually inspire me!

Hi, wolfie! ^^v Yes, you've told me about that in one of my discussion that you're different offline and online. You were actually one of my inspiration in writing this topic. I know it's really hard to set up a meeting. My friends in school appoint me to do that daunting task thinking that I'm perfect for the job. Well, anyway, do you think so too? I wouldn't have thought about this idea in the first place if I'm not the one fit for the job, haha!

Wow, wolfie.. Thanks for the kind words... In what way have I inspired you? I really love meeting people up close. People say that I'm all out. I have a lot of energy when it comes to reunions and meetings. I don't know, I just enjoy being out there.. hmm...

Maybe because I am a little OC and idealistic, Lakota. I criticize myself most of the times. I really have to go over my past writings and check what I've written. The sad part is that I can't undo my posts here in myLot, haha!

That will be good, but i'm not sure if i will attend the meeting too.. hehe ^_^ Even though i will like to meet all my frenz in mylot, but i'm not really good in talking as compared to writing.. hehe ^_^ BUt at the same time, i'm really curious to see and know how are mylot frenz in real life.. Maybe i will start off with my old frenz in mylot, b4 i will arrange with meet ups with new frenz.. hehe ^_^

Yeah, kun.. I'm really eager to meet only my "friends" but everyone here in myLot. My idea is way too far from being reality.. I can only dream. I've talked with different kinds of people of all ages, but mostly from the same nation. I have talked to Aussies and an American but only for a brief moment... it was a hi and hello conversation since I can't construct an English sentence that fast. I was afraid I might say something stupid, you know.

Thanks, kun. Yeah, I'm practicing to improve my English. My daughter's father wants her first language to be English. It's easier to teach Tagalog (Filipino language). It's one way of learning and improving my Spoken English.

Hi Buabyfuzz, I have been blessed enough to meet with two of myLot friends and they wer both as lovely in real life as I expected them to be. In fact one did try to set up a meetin with quite a few of us within a certain area but it looks like it will be him, his wife and two others, myself included as so near Christmas, travelling costs etc. I am really loking forward to it though. I am quite shy until I get to know someone but felt immediately at ease in their company. Set something up it will be fun. Huggles. Ellie :D

hello babyfuzz, You do have a great idea about it. Although like what other members said, it's hard to have an eyeball to mylotters who are all over the world. But if there is an eyeball for Philippine mylotters, maybe I will take it into consideration although I also hope it would be near in my area. Anyway, you do have a brilliant idea about it.

Hi, aisaelliss ^^v. Thank you for responding. Okay then, let's have a local mylot eyeball instead. Will you be kind to organize our meeting? Do you have friends here in myLot that are already your friends before? Or you made friends with some online buddies? Where are you exactly by the way? Anyway, don't answer that. haha! It would be lovely to see you in person, aisaellis. I'll be looking forward for our mylot eyeball. ^^v

Don't worry, Aisa... Everything should start from something. Why not give it a try.. If you're a good follower, then you'll be a good leader. I went to Mindanao (Zamboanga) last August. That's the first time I've ridden an airplane. I'll search the friendster account with myLot Pinoys there. ^^v

I wish I could babyfuzz but sad to say I am not good in organizing. If you could read my response about being a good leader and a follower, I said I am a good follower because I don't think I could be a good organizer. By the way, I am from davao city, so I am sure that you are far from my area. Let's just hope that someday we will all meet and I am looking forward in meeting Philippine mylotters. I even joined the mylot group in friendster which was created by greeneagle. I hope you could join their too.

The possibility is always there, babyfuzz! Though I really believe it is not possible, at the moment, for a worldwide meet-up, it is possible that myLot gatherings happen on a per country arrangement. Wouldn't it be nice meeting your fellow myLotters from the same country? It would really be a fun event! I wonder how many Pinoys are members of this worldwide phenomenon? If ever there'll be a myLot gathering in my country, the Philippines, I would love to join and meet up with you fellow Filipino myLotters!

Hi, fedge.. Thanks for the add. Yeah, organizing a global mylot eyeball would be a very strenuous undertaking. If the all mighty would permit it, I will definitely be the first one to come. haha! I'm really curious how many Pinoys (Filipinos) are hear in myLot. I've met up with some but we're not actual buddies here in myLot. It's funny to think that I could've been talking to somebody out there who's a mylot member. Maybe we've already met in person, fedge. haha! Okay okay.. here's my flag for you too!

I am the same person everywhere I go. I do not change. I do not tell a whole lot about my personal life in Mylot though. Some things are better left in the household.

I don't know if a general mylot get together is even possible... since members are from all over the world... so it would take months to organize such a thing... and the main problem is where is it going to be... most likely in the U.S. but where in the U.S.... i don't think i would ever be able to attend since i do not have the ways and means... So i will just have to read about it in discussions here in mylot...
@aseretdd (13730)

I think i will be the same person... not shy but very sociable...
@babyfuzz (1078)

Yeah, aserertdd.. It's too impossible. Setting a reunion or get together with my highschool friends is daunting enough, what more a very huge and global convention. I just want to have a "closer" look with my 'online' buddies here in myLot. I also do not have the ways and means. ^^v If ever there would be a global mylot eyeball aseretdd, will you still be the same person here in myLot? Will you be shy or feel uneasy like some of us?

I think a Global eyeball would be really difficult. But I think it'll be easier if its just per country. Like, you know...Phillippines MyLot eyeball or something. That'll be much more realistic. But a Global eyeball would be really interesting! Imagine all the people we could meet there. And be like, "OMG! Your [insert nickname here]"

Yes, Donsky.. My idea of having a global mylot eyeball is way too ambitious and far from being possible. I've read about local eyeball and been in one but we're only like seven in the group. Yeah, that sounds really fun! Hey, you're Donsky! I thought you were a fairy-looking butterfly... haha.. nice to meet you (again).. something like that. Thanks, donsky.

I think it's a good thing! The hardest part would be the expense of all the travel. But, we could make hundreds of local meet ups, and connect them all together on giant screens, so we could all see what's going on at all the other meet ups!

Well that would be neat, if we could meet the people we talk with on here everyday, to put a face to a name. I think I would be same person I am on here, I don't have anything to hide, I'm just me. I don't know if it would ever be possible tho, but it is a nice thought. Have a good day

Yes, that's a lovely idea, walijo.. I like your phrase "put a face to a name". I would love to see you face to face, eye to eye. Yes, a global mylot eyeball is highly improbable. Still, it's a good idea to see each other someday.. somehow. ^^v

wow , are you kidding me? There are more than 151,000 mylot population all around the world. And some cannot talk english very well, how would you able to meet and great them. Well, i think it is possible if you just like to meet only your active friend in the list you can have a good chance to know more about them. And be able to meet them in personally is a great experience.

Yes, Margarit. I'm just curious how everyone will act. Will they be the same person as they are here in myLot? Will we all be connected? Of course I would want to meet especially the people whom I grew fond of. ^^v

I do not think that a meeting could be arranged with all members or even friends as we all live so far from each other. What distresses me is why do yo call yourself "thick and a blabbermouth"? You have taught yourself English and are fluent in this language, so how can you call yourself thick? Please don't ever put yourself down or allow someone to put you down. yes, it would be wonderful to meet some of our new frieneds but we have the pleasure of being friends on line. Let us give thanks for this opportunity.

Hi, cynthiann.. I'm not putting myself down. It's the truth. lol Yes, I'm very grateful to have been a part of this wonderful opportunity. Mylot is my portal to the outside world and outlet of some of my deepest feelings. I don't have the luxury of going out there with my friends anymore, and being able to "chat" online is a great way of keeping in touch with old and new friends. ^^v

Hey babyfuzz! I just love that name! Now wouldn't that just be the best! Me and my mylot friends have talked about this before! We would love to meet each other as you said "eyeball to eyeball"! It would be so fun! But it sure would be kind of difficult picking a place somewhere smack in the middle of the globe! We'd end up meeting right in the middle of some ocean! Honestly, I really do with that we could all pick some kind of meeting place and have a mylot convention! Could you just imagine that! Mylotters from all over the world meeting face to face for the first time! It would be so amazing! All of us who only know each other by our cyber selves! I do talk to some mylotters off the lot, but it's still online! I wish there was a way that mylot could figure out how to get something like that together. But even it they could how would we all be able to afford to get wherever we had to go? That would be kind of difficult! Maybe some day some way it will happen! We can only hope!

Thanks, opal.. I'm the fuzzy baby! haha Yeah, money will be a huge predicament as well. I'm so dreamy. I'm so eager to meet you all and didn't even think about the money side of this matter.. I'm glad that you already made friends with some online buddies. I also have friends here and there whom some I met here in myLot. It would really be lovely to see them eye to eye. Maybe there's already one mylotter out there that I've bumped into didn't even know. haha! Those aside, if ever there would be a global mylot eyeball, would you be the same person? ^^v

Just as long as we get to wear masks during the whole global event. I think what you "see" in myLot is actually 78% of my true self (yes, I calculated!). I'm more reserved around people I barely know but can go with the flow when needed. I tend to become more animated and talkative once you get to know me more...

Okay then, SaintAnne, it would be a global mylot eyeball masquerade party. You really calculated it, huh? I hope I can get to know the real you. I've experienced the wacky and mysterious SaintAnne. I love jolly and comic type of personalities. Still I see you as the smart Anne with a big big heart. ^^v

I am glad that you thought of it and that you shared it with us! :) I hope it comes to pass and soon we are using this! :)

Yeah, I thought so too. I just checked out other myLot discussions about an eyeball set up locally. I had attended a small meet-up, we're like seven myLotters, but they're actually friends even before myLot and I'm the newcomer. I think it's would be lovely to see you guys in person rather than looking at avatars of different pictures like cats, sunset, or what not... by the way, is that you in your avatar, EAstanley?
