In November,I went to my fiveyear high school reunion and was not pleasantly surprised.Lauren became a model,Josh went to law school,Dina was a teacher.I hadn't talked to any of them since graduation,but I knew exactly what they were doing,both now and last week.But lately,I'm overwhelmed(应接不暇).Facebook opened up to everyone,not just college students,and my coworkers started to join,which meant they now knew what I was doing when I
wasn't at work.
And as a rule: you can NOT make friends with your coworkers because then they'll ask you the next day.But I
thought we were friends.And you are friends but not the kind of friends who tell each other what they do outside of work.So now the people you work with can see what you did last night,and you're constantly worrying what people might say about what you did last night instead of actually doing anything tonight.
So I quit.I became a 25yearold Luddite,a person who is strongly against technology development.I've retuned to how the world worked when I was 20,before I knew when my friends and coworkers were counting down the seconds to vacation or wistful(伤感的) or entering a complicated relationship.I'm hoping life will be a lot simpler now.People will be more mysterious now that I actually have to talk to them to find out their favorite books or hobbies or neurosis(神经症).I don't know when my college roommate goes to the supermarket,and I think I'm a better person for not knowing.In fact,you could say getting off a social network was the best thing I've done this week.
