Top 5 ways to curb Internet addiction

2. Sabotage your computer and/or laptop, or if you can’t bring yourself to do that, hand it to someone for safe keeping.
3. Get a life.
4. Have someone change your Internet password and not let you know about it

It doesn’t take much to figure out from point number 5 why I have not been able to blog at all last week. Here’s to hoping I can post this up.

Anyway, what do you get when you put three UGSers together in one car?

One who knows the directions, already has a real driving license but does not drive.
One who doesn’t know directions, has a probationary driving license but is appointed driver.
One who is okay with directions, okay with driving, but chooses to sit at the back perusing The Wings, St Mary’s school bulletin.

Well, the above was the case on Friday, after watching The Simpsons and headed for dessert at Sunny Hill after lunch. By the way, the movie was really funny and I probably would have been missing out on watching the best movie this… season(??) if it weren’t for someone’s persuading. I’m really not that keen on The Simpsons. Hence the movie was a delightful surprise.

Okay, back to the point, the driving. I have to admit it’s the first time in my life I have sat in a car with two other guys and end up being the one giving directions. (Yes, I am the one who has a license but does not drive *blush*) Of course, no fault of the driver, we do thank him very much. Without whom we wouldn’t have been able to carry out phase two of the afternoon, and eat ice-cream which has the consistency of mousse. Haha. All in all, Friday afternoon well spent, away from the office.
