I am such a whore

I had this sudden urge to blog today. I guess I ought to, given how long ago the last entry was, not to mention my last entry was on something uninteresting. (Hello??? Sorry if YOU take offence, but it is my blog. Of course it is me they are interested in, and not YOU)

Anyway, I had this urge to blog, because I have been blog whoring for the past few days. DO NOT ASK ME HOW MUCH WORK I HAVE DONE THE PAST FEW DAYS! A few things struck me as I sieved through volumes of dusty archives.


Firstly, people change. And it shows in their writing. Their grammar deteoriated with the time they will spend away from school. Might had to did with the fact that blogspot no have grammar check. Of course, that wasn't what I meant. I refer to their style of writing and more importantly, the way they think. It is scary, because I have known some of these friends for a long time. I don't exactly notice these changes when I am with them. But when I read the blog, I can see how much they have matured over the years. There are a couple of them whose blogs are much older than our friendships. Since I never knew how they were, the changes were more significant, because I cannot imagine them doing or feeling certain things they used to now.


When I realise how much one can tell from blogs, me being the self-conscious me, checked my blog for signs of maturity. Only two conclusion: either I did not mature over these 2 years of my life, or I am so mature that there is no way I can mature anymore. Now that I read the previous sentence, I realise that the two options are not exclusive, so it is probably both:D


However, I do notice in the change of style and the things I write on. I used to have more humour in my posts. If you have not noticed ie have no sense of humour, I am trying to revive that hibernating side of mine. I have also been writing on the boring or unhappy stuff. Not that there were many entries to anlayse, but at least half of the recent ones showed signs of boredom/unhappiness. Hard to tell those two apart sometimes. I am sad when I am bored.


Another thing I notice about the blogs I read: Some form of deep feelings must be revealed somewhere to keep me reading. That is what I read blogs for anyway- to learn more about my friends. Humour is definitely good, but humour can only keep me reading your blog if I am bored. But given my busy schedules (too many friends, too little time), if I know I won't get to know you better after reading your blog, I may return to the blog during summer only.

Oh, one advice: please don't put too many pictures in your blog. Contrary to popular belief, pictures DO NOT speak a thousand words. Firstly, it takes forever for ALL the pictures to load, if you have tons (do not insult my laptop). In that time take to load, I am (quite) sure I can read at least a thousand words (do not insult me). Secondly, I am not really interested in all the repetitive pictures in front of the same statue with the same people but with different butts sticking out. The only reason I look at the pictures is to make sure I look better than you or the girl you are with. I do not need so many pictures to assure me. Thirdly, since I am only interested in your words, I will need to manoeuver through all the pictures (after waiting for the billions of seconds for them to load). I hate it when the right scroll bar is so small that I need a microscope to find it, only to scroll down tons of self-advertisement. Don't get me wrong. A few pics are nice to prove to me that you are not lying, just not so much that I swear you have more pics in one page than I have in my entire comp.


I am not a good blogger though, I have to admit. At the naissance of this blog, I mention that I probably wouldn't be blogging much. I guess I proved as much. I just don't wanna end up blogging about stuff that bore people to death. I would rather people stop reading my blog coz I don't update than coz it is too boring (like those links I deleted off my favourites... Kidding... if you r not on my faves, it's coz I can memorise ur add... really...).

Anyway, by popular demand (well, I had ONE person requesting), I am going to TRY to restore my tag board.
