What have I been doing these few days, apart from the routine? Nothing really much. I have in fact been trying to tweak around this blog site, adding images and links. Playing around with the template. Generally, trying to be creative lah.

I suppose I don’t have much of a life outside of my computer. Yeah, I guess you can say that. Which is why I am trying to find a life within it. Almost every leisure moment I have is spent in front of the computer, online. I surf the web, check out forums, read about TK and pry into others’ life through their blogs. Sometimes I even get to unearth secrets of people I know. Haha, some more about people I don’t like okay. Actually, I find a lot of interesting things in this space. But I seem to be an outsider looking in. So I try to partake via some sort of an online identity…..first through my Jpop website and now this.

I don’t have a specific objective for starting this blog really. I started it because I was bored. Really bored. I can spend hours surfing but it’s not going to be fun just scrolling and reading. So having a blog gives me something to do online. Well, a website too, but I can’t ramble on a website right? It’s got to have a more specific in focus. Duh.

I enjoy clicking on the publish post button and reading my own work. Whether it is nonsensical or contemplative. My thoughts are after all pretty elusive and fickle. Putting down in writing helps to capture some of these. I don’t like diaries. I have tried them. Initially the entries look and read beautiful but after a while, my writing will degenerate into some unintelligible garbage because I might have written in the dark or while falling asleep. And because of my OCD, I will then try to buy another diary and start all over again…..and again…..and again. Why? Because I cannot delete the entries and they look ugly! I don’t like!

So the orderliness of a blog works wonders for me. I type, choose the typeface, bold the letters, change the colours, increase the font size, and I can even add images. Just click publish post, and voilà, my art of utterance is there. And if it doesn’t pleases my eye, I can delete, and start all over and over and over again without having to buy new diaries!!! So brilliant. So convenient. So organised.
