A Blog about Blogging: The Virgin Blog

While waiting for my Boy to show up and get me, I thought perhaps I should get started?? ;-)

I have to admit, I NEVER thot I'd succumb to this phenomenon called BLOGGING. The chain of thought use to be - "Blogging?? Who?? Me??? Over my dead body!!". So, I guess I'm eating my own shit right now.... *muahahaaa*

And hesitations about blogging are understandable. Afterall, its an awkard space between what's public and what's private (and its not porn I'm talking abt here hor, so PLEASE stay on this track with me here....). The concept of an online diary is an oxymoron - I mean how can a personal diary be free for all to read right??? So what can you and can you not say?? I have had friends and colleagues who have gotten into some trouble before, and there are those who are just blatant abt everything and anything about theirs private lives online, which ends up as good entertainment, so hey, who's complaining?? *chuckle*

Yet yet yet, some of my scepticism has melted away. there are benefits - people use it as an avenue to share ideas, thoughts, keep frens updated about your life and stay in touch, or even as a form of release from the struggles of daily living. All good stuff. soul stuff as some people would say it.

And I was definitely inspired by A's blog!! I never knew there was this poetic side to you behind that geek/nerd image..... *just joking*

I think what draws me, is that there's a certain honesty to some of the blogs I've read. (Perhaps the anonymity helps??) A side to many of my frens esp, I never knew of.

So, here I am. Ready and hopefully willing to share my life, or bits of my life with whosoever will walk my journey with me.

Ready?? =)
