Blog-sessed
So looks like I managed to fix my blog... looking pretty good, even if I say so myself... now if only someone can teach me how to get my navbar back...
I've spent the last few nights online, looking at people's blogs... both their writings and designs... and I'm beginning to understand the thrill of blogging. I think I prefer reading blogs of the people that I know, there's always the "are they blogging about me? Are they? Can't be... now why aren't they blogging about me?" feeling that comes from it. I don't really read random blogs (somewhat due to the fact that I lost my navbar) because they seem too distant for me to care about. Hmm... selfish and egoistic, aren't I? But from the few that I've come across, it's like watching daytime soap... not that I watch, but it's a little addictive, always coming back to see how things progressed from when you last read...
To be honest, I don't quite know why I started blogging in the first place. I mean, I know who inspired (motivated? conned? Oops, I mean convinced!) me to start... but not why... maybe I saw it as an avenue to vent frustration, say things that I might not have the courage to say face-to-face. I have always been better with the written word. When it comes to real-life conversations, I sometimes hem-and-haw like an idiot... sometimes... this is like keeping a diary, only that the whole world gets to read it. I'm still a little nervous about that, because it would offer an insight into my psyche, and some things I would rather keep private. But then again, there are things that I wanna shout out to the world, to shout out to... well, you know who you are!
And the other thing I find fascinating? That 31 other people have actually read my blog. The one that was "forced" to, that's understandable, but everyone else? Like hey, people are actually interested in what I have to say, although some of my entries tend to be very "reader-specific"... ok then, if you're a math genius like me, you'd have deduced by now that I've had a grand total of 32, yes you got that right, 32 profile views! Maybe I can't quite compare with your 636 profile views, but hey, you had a headstart! So if you'll lay off blogging for a while, maybe I can catch up!
