Usually I spent 6-8 hours in the internet doing nothing just surfing and playing facebook games some of my friends say that this is a bad thing. I know that this takes toll in my health and everything but I just want another opinion on it. If I spent those time in a much constructive work will it be then become a good thing?

Ignore your friends. Staying too long is not a bad thing.
I am online the whole day, everyday. My laptop is on 24 hours a day. I never turn it off even when I go to bed. The only time I shut it down is when I have some place to go and I bring it with me, and some hours just to let it rest for a while.
I guess that's because our lifestyles are different, because I find it hard to do nothing on the internet.
But like I said, 6-8 hours on the internet is not a bad thing. I seldom go offline, but I'm healthy, have a social life, a girlfriend, and a job.
In other words, there's nothing to be afraid of.

Well I wake up everyday around 9 am.
So basically a typical day for me would be surfing2x the whole day, until about night time around 10pm , where I start to play online games. Sometimes though if I'm bored I just continue surfing.
I usually go to bed at around 3am in the wee ours of the morning. On other times maybe earlier, like 2am if I am sleepy. (I am a human being after all...hehehe..)
So if you do the math, I sleep from 3am to 9am, so that means I get about 6 hours of sleep a day.
Like I said my laptop never gets turned of as well and the good news is I still get most of my work done. As long as my eyes can handle it, I know I'm okay.
Sometimes I seek the help of coffee, though. It helps in times when I have to stay awake for more than 24 hours especially if there are lots of work to be done.

I don't think that it's a good thing spending that much time infront of the system.It will severely effect your eyes.It will also cause back pain.But,if it is your primary income,then there is nothing one can do.Just take necessary precautions.Cheers,..
