Hello,

My name is Maria.And i am an Internet addict.
he he try to sound like the people who go to those re-hab centres. "Hi,my name is Frank and i am an alcoholic." and everybody says,"hi Frank."

Anyway,there are many people we meet on the internet like here at kikuyu.com and we exchange phone numbers and sometimes addresses.It seems harmless (to us) when we do it but in some cases its not.Say it is harmless and we continue to be "friends" with these people; is this friendship real? how can it be real when the only thing connecting the two of you is wires?Should people we meet on the net be treated like other friends who are "more real?"

I have met (in person) with 4 people i met on the internet.I get the chills when the time comes to meet 'cos of the fact that i am finally meeting a stranger i already know now that doesnt sound right.But of these people one is a very good friend(kenyan)now and the others are cool too.
Somehow, they dont seem "real" 'cos of the fact that we met on the internet.

These friends are too good to be real, just like the internet.They will always make your day- now thats for sure.But is it good to live in this "virtual" world with "virtual" friends?

Maria,
Let me say personally the only internet friends I have met, were thru kik.com and guess what, they have been great! None of the friends I have met thru kik.com and then face to face have disappointed me. I guess it is because here, people do not put artificial face, what impression you get of someone here will be exactly what you get when you meet (at least for me this is true)

Ngunjiri,
maybe u r right,i'd like to meet you and know whether you are real.

Anyway, remember that "courier" guy; i met him
he is cool alright, (real Kenyan).but still,am not sure he is "real". although he is a great kikuyu teacher.its just that time is not on our side so i havent had any lesson yet. but i have hope.he is nice,he could spare some time to teach me and yet he is a kikuyu "business man"...i guess that makes him real.

hey guys,
Check out this sick joke;

"why do cows wear bells around their necks"?

answer;

"cuz their horns dont work!"

its so sick. i got it from Sylvester Stallon's movie,"ROCKY".
cool movie

hey all,
check this joke too,
Q;What's the defference between a woman in church and a woman in bath?
A;A woman in church has hope in her soul,but the woman in bath
has soap .

hahaha ..

thats pretty funny,huh wagithuri.

if you read it this way; "she ha..s..'ope" it sounds like "she has hope"

and "she has'ope" sounds like "she has soap"

i like it. cool n sick joke.

Maria,
Too bad that I had been out of kikuyu.com for sometime now. I could have tried to get to you when I was in Kampala a few weeks ago. Anyway, I have meet two people through kik.com, and I would say like Ngunjiri that they are great.

If any kikuyu.com member happen to be in mombasa call me on 0733997544,0723237485, i will be happy to meet you guys.

Wagithuri,
Hata wewe? Nilikuwa pwani wiki iliyopita na niliutembelea mji kwa tuk-tuk. Naam ningalijua ulikuwepo, ningekupigia bila shaka. Hata hivyo, pokea salamu zangu za heri njema na mwaka mpya wenye mafanikio.

sajini,
Pole sana ndugu yangu ,ningefulahi sana kama tungeonana,lakini wakati utafika,
nafikili ulifulahia ukarimu wa wapwani na hali ya hewa nzuri,
nawe pia nakutakia heri njema na mwaka mpya wenye baraka,

Sajini,
funny,i still havent gotten over the whole "sajini" idea yet. i feel i have too much respect for you. ..and Ngunjiri, and Wagithuri..

Yeah, I missed seeing you .Should have joined kikuyu.com back then when you hadn't gotten so busy.There'll be a next time. I have faith.
Ngunjiri..hhmm

There is a kikuyu here in Uganda-"courier" and i have met him. He is cool.you guys are very nice people.THUMBS UP!!

maria,
i can see you are not alone there,the family is growing,soon you might be more than two,

yeah..soon we will be. But there are many Kenyans here and many kikuyus. They got their style so there are particular "joints" where you will find kenyans.
of course,most of them are secondary students. i wonder why their parents send them here all by themselves. you know,there are some schools with 90% of the population being Kenyans.

It is a plus for Uganda Maria. Kenyans respect Uganda for her superior education system. It is interesting that Makerere has opened a Campus in Kenya to cater for the demand. It is also very nice because Kenyans will learn more about the Ugandan culture which will open up their eyes towards other cultures. An international experience is essential in developing a global perspective.

Once more Maria
I am very impressed by your quick grasp of Kikuyu. Hunestly, I would like to steal a trick from you. And by the way, you should start a thread where you also teach us your language.
