I think internet is one of the most wonderful inventions, because it brings the world so much closer. Because of this wonderful invention, I get to know a lot of friends through the internet.
I think it was 1997 (or is it 1998?) that I first began exploring ICQ. At that time, it was very popular and of course I was hooked to it. It was during that time that I get to know Jennifer (By the way, she's from America). We will 'chat' online and throughout the years when the ICQ trend fades away, we continue to 'chat' through snail mails and/or emails. I am most touched when she flew over to visit us in 2006 for her honeymoon. She is now my best friend (we even treat each other as part of the family, and that shows how close we are).
I guess I have carried away with my ramblings, but I'm just trying to emphasize how wonderful internet can be because you don't have to travel to know more friends. And due to this, I also get to know several wonderful friends through blogging.
Now I want to thank Alice for giving me the Nice Matters Award. She is one of the sweetest bloggers/friends I met through blogging and I am very glad to know her. Thank you, Alice!
And that's not the end of it, I have also received a Thoughtful Blogger Award from Kristy. What a double sweet surprise all in one morning! Thank you so much, Kristy!
Before I end this post, I would like to give these two awards to Jennifer, Julia, Alice, Wendy, Kristy and Kathy! Thank you, my dear friends! You ladies rock!

Thanks for the award girl. You are my long lost sister . . . . and I am glad that we met on ICQ. It was such a WONDERFUL experience to meet you and the family, I can't wait until we get together again!!!
You're always welcome, girl! :)
Hopefully next time it's our turn to visit you guys soon! :D
Thanks Melody!
You're very welcome, Kristy! :)
Melody - Thanks so much! We only knew each other for few years now, but we have a long way to go *grin*....I appericate our friendship :)
Hey Julia, you're welcome! :D
I remember we first knew each other through Lori's forum. And if I'm not wrong, I think you ask something on the forum and I replied to you. From then on, we are friends. ;) I treasure our friendship, thanks for being my friend. :)
Oh Meeeel....oh...deee... (Melody) -- actually that's how I always imagine myself calling you. LOLOL.
You so deserve the double award, girl (we're all GIRLS today!).
I'm blushing with pride and happiness when I read the way you describe me. I so thank the Almighty for introducing such a lovely friend to me. We've known each other for how long?... 6 months perhaps?...
*WAVES at Julia*
What wonderful accolades to have received! Me, I'm just tryin' to end up with that cool pink "rockin' girl blogger" award! ;)
LOL! Alice, I don't mind as long as you don't call me that way at night especially it's the seventh lunar month now, hehe! :O
Thank you! And Long live to our friendship! :D
Hey Library girl! I feel so honoured and thrilled for receiving those awards. And having a 'Rocking Girl Blogger' is equally cool too!!! :D
Melody! You are too sweet! Thank you so much for the nominations. :-) I think you are pretty nice and thoughtful too.
Congrats Melody! You are definitely one the most deserving people I "know"!
Hi Wendy! Hi Debi! Thank you so much! It's nice to have you all as my friends. :)
