Or'quit'

There are always somethings that an individual never likes. I have some such things on my hate list. Ok maybe I will not call it a hate list. Its a list of things that somehow has become a part of my life but somehow I just dont like them. I have never been able to figure out why I dont like them. I am sure everyone has such a list.

Do you know what is one such item on my list. Its Orkut!!! Yeah surprisingly its true. I have never been a big fan of it. I joined it at a time a couple of years back when it was just catching up and not many had heard of it. But somehow it just didnt impress me. I am not against the concept of social networking. Its just one of those feelings for which you never have an answer.

I have just invited just one friend till today to join. I have added just two people till today as friends. The rest are people who have added me and I have accepted. I usually never scrap people. I only reply if I get a scrap. I am first to scrap usually when its the other person's birthday or on some rare occassions. I didnt put in a photo till middle of last year. I dont use the features like the friend level thing, or rating them as cool, sexy, trusty or the hot list. I also added photographs to the album thing very late. Though I have added one person on my crush list!!! And still hope for the best and keep my fingers crossed!!!

I have never even joined any communities other then my old school. I dont like people telling "wanna be my friend" in some girl's scrapbook. And I dont know why the scrapbook is in the public domain. But yeah, who am I to complain - I check everyone's scrapbook on a "regular basis" (read as daily). I know I am not addicted to it. I dont know why I am frustrated with it.

But orkut doesnt know I am frustrated with it. And something happens that irritates me more. Now I have observed that at regular intervals a scrap gets deleted. I know the only two people who can do that is either me or the owner of the scrap. I dont know what I have done to anyone who has scrapped to provoke them to delete their scrap from my scrapbook. If any of you is angry with me just let me know - dont delete your scraps from my scrapbook - there's a scarcity of scraps you see!!!

But you know orkut is the only thing which lets me see her everyday. So I am going to hold on to it!!!
