Thank God its friday. I usually say that after a long weekdays of school, work and other chores. Another thing I like about fridays is, I can use the computer the night after. Because saturdays and sundays are my free days. Although I still have a lot of pending things to do during weekends, I always give it a shot on my computer every friday nights. Thats the only time I could use the computer without any disturbance and without thinking of waking up so early on saturdays. Though I'm so tired the whole day,I still enjoy using the internet. Though my eyes are half sleep, I still push myself to read news on internet, watch movie online or write. I can still open my account on facebook, plurk and twitter. I find it relaxing after the long hours of the day and it actually relieves my stress. Do you feel the way too towards your computer, internet? What about it? Or you find it as a form of another burden to your eyes and mind when you're using it? I wanna hear some stories about it. Happy myotting.

It's really grate to surf, I like and bigger interaction level (I guess): play multi player online games! relaxing (playing games) and you can interact with other peoples. And with all that in your week don't forgot that isn't all your life, you have a bigger purpose with God, don't forget Him, He'll never forget you ^^

Hi, I also use internet for getting some relaxation including many other purposes. It is a place which solves the purposes of meeting the friends, posting resumes to find new jobs, Surfing the good places in the world and also to join some sites to earn some money. People who are programmers use the internet for many purposes. I think these days computer and Internet are the first requirement for some people in this world.

When cellphone blooms it became a fad that it is somewhat included on the lists of commodities. And now, computers bloom, everyone is in need of it. If he/she has no computer it is really hard to go with the flow, with people who is a computer literate. Good jobs use the computer and internet as a tool to get good workers too. That means, computer and internet are on the list of things that people must have now. That is just my idea about it. Happy mylotting.

I don't find the internet a burden. I never even thought that. I love using the internet. In fact, I can't stand not using the internet for a day or two. Internet is such an essential part of my life. It connects me to my friends, helps me learn new stuff, etc. Plus, I also get to watch movies and shows and play games online.

For me, for the most part, I would say that the internet is actually my connection to the outside world. The reason that I say that is because of the fact that I am a stay-at-home mother and my husband is at work long hours during the day. This means that during the winter, especially, I'm not really able to get out of the house because he has the car. So, I use the internet to relieve stress as well as to communicate with the world outside of my four walls.

I to use Friday nights for my time to relax and it never fails it is always on the computer. I am on the computer all day, everyday except sat.and sun doing online work..ebay,writing and etc, so I feel like I really never get to do the fun stuff online. Come Friday night after everyone has turned in for the night it is just me and computer ( feels like I am having affair ) and it winds me down. I play around with photos, facebook and do a little surfing. I find it very relaxing ! And trust me, I do try to do other things on those Friday nights but it just does not seem to work out for me which I find a bit funny since I sit here all the time as it is. I end up turning in around 2am or so and looking forward to the next Friday evening !

I was grateful it was Friday yesterday, because it was my day off. I like it when I have a Friday off as it means I can do a few errands during the day. My job is a bit tedious too. So I usually use the internet to relieve me of some stress. But I don't do it just on Fridays. I do it everyday. When the day gets a little bit crazy, I pop in the web to relax my mind.

I browse a little every morning and every evening, even if it's just while I drink my coffee (in the morning) or my cup of hot milk (in the evenings) - it relaxes me and helps me stay focused for the rest of the day. I avoid all topics that might annoy me during these "therapeutic" browsing sessions. Some of the blogs I've been following are just as good as a hot bath for relaxing

Even though my tires are tired because I am in front of a computer the whole day because of work, I still turn on my pc when I get home and surf the net. It usually relaxes me to check some sites that interests me and check my personal emails. Sometimes, I just play internet games until I fall asleep. :D
