the one about me

I just went through my blog page and read the 'about me' page. There were a few minor grammar mistakes that I've corrected. I also thought I would write another post about myself. Although that is not technically true since my blog is about me.

The trick with getting people to read your blog is to put pictures every one or two paragraphs. Interesting pictures of course. To make them interested in reading more. The paragraphs can't be too long as well. If you've managed to write a whole post without any pictures and people actually reads them, then congratulations.

I'm not really sure why I have a blog. My friend introduced or asked me to join I think. Can't really remember. It was in mid 2005. But I thought it was a good way to express without having to bother getting a book and a pen and the strength to write in it.

I think in my first six months the only people who read my blog was that friend of mine. I wasn't really obsessed about it. Then slowly people know about it. I told my friends back in M when I was going to NZ to read my blog to keep track of me. That was when my blog became more 'read'. However, that idea wasn't really popular as a number of my friends are non-techno-savvy kind of people. I didn't mind showing them my blog then since I was just going to blog about people in NZ.

In 2006, as I was quite by myself I wrote in my blog almost everyday. For 2007 maybe because I'm not so by myself anymore I don't write as much here. Or maybe I'm aware of who reads this. It is hard to talk about friends freely here when they themselves might just come across it.

This is why I think blogging is complicated. Sometimes its hard to come out with the words. To make it sound like how its suppose to sound.

I'm not complicating your mind with any pictures as the other two 'about me' pages has more than enough pictures.

Its almost the end of the year for me. With only less than 3 weeks more to go home, my year is pretty much gone. I've definitely learnt some things this year. Like how to make friends. Continue staying friends. How to appreciate people for who they are. Growing spiritually. Cooking. Why the sky is blue. Among many other things. I've also learnt that I snore when I sleep.

2007 has been a wonderful year but I'm looking forward to going home. And eating of course!

p.s. I hope what I just written made sense. If not just ask me.

p.s.s. If you want to receive my monthly emails (which I try to make it different from what I write here), feel free to flick me an email at dec9teen@gmail.com.

it's quite hard to blog (for me) when you know "people" are going to read it... can't just simply express your feeling like that... must choose carefully...

Anyway... I want in :) if you don't mind...
