For those who alreadi know me, you can skip this..
But for those who don't know me well or, for the matter, don't know me at all, or you think you know me well but want to know me better, or you are just plain bored, or if you are curious as to why a blog-hater like me would start writing a blog(a.k.a KPO!!!), read on... =p
I cant say i hate blogs or bloggers because, from time to time, i would read my friends' blogs. I just didn't like the idea of having an online diary. To me, diaries are supposed to contain personal, private thoughts and not be published on a space where everyone, and anyone could read. I don't want pple to go, "oh.. he's writing this because he knows i (am)will be reading this.. tts y he's writing it this way, that way.." yupz.. i mayb tOo sensitive.. but this is who i m.. i think i am someone who defines myself with what pple say about me.
I also d0n't like it that friends react only after a reaction. Get what i mean? It's like.. if they don't hear from you, they would think you are doing well and won't keep in touch. They will only show care and concern, msg or mail you after they see a depressing post on the blog. This is not what i want. I believe that care and concern should be constant. o.K, i understand that YOU cant have the whole world evolve around YOU, where all your friends put YOU in the center of their lives, but that would be a story for another post. So yah, if you happen to read a depressing post from me(*touch wood*), don't suddenly contact me if you haven't been doing so.. I wouldn't go to the extreme to say you r being fake, but all i can say is i would appreciate it if you bothered to keep in touch in happy times as well.
So wHy a blog now? Things change. In the past, i was self-sufficient. I didn't need any1 else to know about I was doing, what i am doing, what i will be doing; where i was, where i am, where i will b; what i was thinking, what i am thinking. (no 'what i will be thinking' because who will know what they will be thinking? =p)
To put it simply, now, i crave attention (i guess that explains my close-2-blond hair colour?).
Or mayb i do not really open up to people face-to-face, so this acts as a place where i can let people really know me ba..
This would be a place where i pen down my thoughts, abstract or childish. You know, like in other blogs where you see entries about a badly done test? Or an uninspiring soccer match someone has played? Or what that someone has done that particular day? yEap.. this blog would not be like that, or at least i planned it not to be.. haha...
o.K, although i am an SoC(School of Computing) student, my IT skills su** la, plus i don't know HTML and way tOo lazy to learn. Hoped to get some help in setting this up, but i guess not.
"Count on no one but yourself" -------> yEah! first quote of this blog!
--------> how true..
So as i was saying, this blog wouldn't be fantastic, it wouldn't be great, its not even user-friendly, but 请原谅, my ideal design wasn't this, but its not my fault i'm lousy at something right....
btw, throughout my entries, if i need to include my friends' names, I will 'encrypt' them, not so that people will not know who i m talking about, but more so that my friends wouldn't be offended if i criticise or defame them in any way.. wahaha.. =p
I know this is an ABOUT ME post, but its really difficult to sum up in a few words what kind of person i m.. so for those still interested.. stay tuned..
Point to note: tHis blog has been dragged for quite sometime le, so some entries may appear
to lag.. like say... the entry mayb abt something that happened weeks ago.. yah.. =p
