More about me and this blog.
This is my third serious blog since I learned the power of the Internet way back in High School. I've deleted my first one and it was on LiveJournal. It contained young and naive feelings of an average 14-year-old. I talked about my college life on my second blog, Multiply. I think I should delete that one but it has all of my pictures from my senior year in High School up to.. Well, now. I must find a way to transfer those pictures, I know. Multiply is like a wet market now. I shouldn't have anything to do with that site.
Which brings us to this one, my newest Internet venture - Blogspot. I've been here for almost a month and I've struggled with almost everything, tbqh. First, there's the blog name. I've tried at least 6 names and all of it are already taken. I didn't want a plain name and surname-blog name. Nothing serious though, it's just me and my ways. My writing process isn't at its peak either. The last time I blogged was late last year. I had things to write about in my head but I couldn't seem to put them in words. Also, my layout slash html slash design skills are rusty, it's frustrating. But with the outcome of this site, I think I've managed.
Now me... I'm unemployed and have been for the last 9 months and I spent every waking minute of my current life here at our home, soaking the Internet. I'm not proud or ashamed that I'm not doing anything for me to put it in here. That's just the truth.
I like preserving moments and feelings. I have this unusual talent of letting go of things and even people easily so I find writing my thoughts and experiences helpful to keep my feet on the ground. It makes me remember how things started and ended. What is good and what used to be good. It may become utterly hilarious after a few good years but it's always nice to remember things, even the bad ones. I believe it's even the bad ones that makes you smile most. Eventually
Well of course there's the fact that I love to write. I really do. I find writing calming and liberating at the same time. I feel stronger with words than with actions. I'm shy. I'm the type where I won't speak to you unless I have something to say or ask, which normally, I don't. So when I write, it's like I'm on a stage, delivering a speech or whatever and all of you are listening. All of you are so consumed with what I'm saying that I just lean back and rap "Look At Me Now."
I am hoping that this blog will help me do the things I want to do. I want to be a writer and I want to express myself more. That's all on me, I know. It's just so good to start with a clean slate. The past is just about looking back. It's all about now and the future. And I look forward to putting every step here.
So, I'm gonna join the rest of my family now. Yeah, I'm not good with ending things, like I've said. Apparently, that's just not in real life but in blog posts as well. No seriously, I think I've missed enough Potter action, even though I watched all 8 films the beginning of this year. Still, it's Harry Potter. No one can resist Harry Potter.
