Hey

Hello.

whats with the full stop?? :P

I write with correct punctuation.

so no winky faces then?? ;)

No.

sooo... why are you talking to me then??

My brother says that I need to talk to people.

oh right ;) well don't you? i mean usually??

No.

I can see why... but i like a challenge ;)

What challenge?

You... :P get you to maybe relax a bit when talking to people!

Right. Am I not relaxed?

No, you and all your full stops! Throw in a winky face! ;) or a smiley face :) or a laughing face :D mix things up a little! ;)

It doesn't seem right. Abusing punctuation.

Go on... try it... ;)

No.

naw pleasseee! :D

No.

Why not! :( wouldn't your brother be proud...come on!

:)

there you go! I don't even know you and we're abusing punctuation together already! ;)

Why?

Why what?

Why do you do these absurd faces with punctuation?

to get across emotions when you can't see someones face i guess!... :)

You use it way to frequently then. You can not possibly have that many emotions to inform me of.

:D lol

"lol" What is this?

laugh out loud?! you haven't heard this before!

No.

Seriously!

No. Are you actually laughing out loud?

well no i'm kinda laughing inside but thats not the point

I do not understand.

what?

What the point is if you are not actually doing what it says.

well i guess its kinda like the smileys then ;)

Are you actually winking right now?

No :)

Then it is absurd and you use them far too often.

It doesn't feel right without them though!! :)

That makes no sense, the english language has survived without these sideways faces for many many years up until the invention of the computer and text.

Well yeah but i can't help it ;) feels like i'm being rude if i don't put one! :P

Hmm. Well. Have it your way. I believe i do not know your name. What is it.

See that last text is just missing a little winky face on the end! ;) oh and John

It is perfectly understandable English without, and I am not winking. My name is Sherlock.

well night Sherlock :) Been nice talking to you :P

Goodnight John.

29th January

Brr it's cold today!! ;)

It appears to be so.

do you speak like that in real life?

Real Life? Is this pretend life then?

oh you know what i mean! in person!

Yes. What is wrong with it?

Oh nothing nothing :) How old are you??

16.

hey same!! thats cool ;) Where do you live?

Isn't that a rather personal question. We only met two days ago. if you can call that 'meeting.'

Oh right no i guess it is. Sorry i was just wondering where you went to school. ;)

Yes.

Yes?

You are thinking from my manner of speech that I go to a Public School.

How ddid you know that!!!! Woah thats like mind reading!

No it is not.

Yeah!!

Simply Deduction.

what?

Deduction.

yeah i did get the text but what do you mean??

I mean that I could tell from the manner you approached the question.

Righht well that was cool! :) what else can you do??

Everything.

okay well then Sir "I can do everything" ;)
