Strangers to Friends

I bet most of my "readers" already heard this story but I'm pretty sure some still haven't. So I might as well share it since I'm feeling nostalgic the other day :)

Meeting people from the world wide web is not dangerous or scary all the time.

Agree? Now a days, It's not rare to pour our souls out to strangers from the internet because of the reasons that they don't know us and they won't probably get to know us at all. But what happens when we start to share our thoughts and feelings and realize the common interests and at the end a special connection is made? Friendship can occur.

For the past year I have met some really awesome people online. What I'm saying is online friends that I already met beyond the internet world. What amazes me is actually meeting people with different races, cultures, languages, and beliefs but was never an hindrance to create such great friendship. So I would like to share some few photos of the awmazing people that I have met online for the past year. :)

Of course, Jaymie Peralta (the left most girl) from USA who visited Philippines last year for a vacation. Trivia, the other three ( [Lola] Roxy, Jjoe, Jeff ) I just met them online too :)


Arman from USA like Jaymie, visited PH for a vacation.. the rest are also my friends that I've met online :)


Kelly Leung - I met her when me and my sisters were in Hong Kong for a 3 day family vacation :)


Leticia and Esme (Xuan) Hayashi - I met them April this 2010 with my niece for a 2 week vacation with my sister who's working there :)

A bunch more photos that I've met face to face already from here in PH as well.. But decided to post one photo since we get to hang out whenever we want to. :P


There are tons of other people that I haven't met personally, but even though we have never made face to face contact, I can proudly call them as my FRIENDS.

Now I wonder, who am I meeting next? :)
