Passwords
Have you ever experienced that boggling situation of not being able to type your password?!As far as I can remember, I have a variety of 10 passwords (give or take) which I use on specific types of accounts. This amount for mails, this for friendster-types, this for game types, this for nonsense crap and the list goes on.
Usually, these passwords are LONG. Average of 10 letters maybe. Now i'm not going to drop any hints on how my passwords might be written but the gist is It Is Confusing.
So, I was logging-on my Yahoo!Mail today. No biggie. I always log-on Yahoo whenever I have to hide the illegal stuff I'm using the computer for... - just kidding
Anyway, I casually typed in 'icalat28' under the username, pressed on 'tab' to place the cursor to the password box, then I started typing my password.
And yeah. Type... mistake... backspace backspace... type... mistake. Backspace backspace... type... my fingers aren't pressing the correct keys.
I repeated the same movements for a minute or two. I was wondering, 'Did my brain split itself into my fingers?!' - multiplied, really, considering we have 10 fingers. I was chuckling by the time I got my password right. Seriously, who encounters these kinds of things?
The feeling was like trying to type 'apple' but placing 'orange' instead.
It's like knowing that 3*2=6 yet you write '4' on the test paper.
It's like walking to the C.R. then you remember you were supposed to get food from the kitchen.
It's like trying to lick the ice cream on your right hand but instead got to lick the remote control on your left hand.
It's like knowing you should shut up but somehow the words just had to slip out of your mouth. It's like knowing you want/like/need someone but instead pushed the someone out of your life.
It's exactly like thinking/knowing of what you have to do but acted something else.
Thankfully, passwords cannot harm others. Hackers use passwords to wreck the internet lives of people, true. But for an ordinary teenager like me, nope; passwords are safe in my hands. Or something like that.
And, passwords can be erased by a simple 'backspace'. Lives cannot. Emotions cannot. Damn life.
