The following is a verbatim transcript of an interview with Sesame Seed done up by her altered ego.
What is Oh My So Cute huh?
Oh My So Cute is my new blog focused on all things graphically cute online. Everything featured in there has to be graphically pleasing to my eye. Some of them are stuff to buy, some are just art eye candy and some are sites on cute but free graphics that I like to share. I’ve always like graphic design and this is an extension of my interest really.
Why another new blog? You mean you’re so free woh?
Ah…such a silly question but well, because firstly my webhost allows me to set up multiple domains on the same host plan. And if it isn’t already obvious, blogging is my hobby and I have lofty ambitions of retiring as a problogger with passive residual income actually. It might sound unrealistic but hey, one can always dream no? Please don’t quote me there!
You design the blog yourself meh?
Well, no of course. I’m definitely not good with CSS so no way can I design a blog from scratch. I adopted an existing wordpress theme and basically tweaked it around, and put up a simple self-made banner. This is what I’ve been doing for all my blogs anyway.
So you expect your regular readers to visit your new blog ah?
Yes of course! Just once at least and give me some feedback. If they like it enough, they can visit again and link the blog up even. It’s really up to them of course.
You can afford so much time with your numerous blogs meh?
What sort of stupid question is that? Time can never be enough! Whether it is one or numerous blogs. I just have to deploy my time well which is spending all my waking time in front of my computer even if it means sacrificing some toilet time. Don’t even ask me how I manage my work, household and quality time with my family. Those are out of the equation. And may I remind you to avoid asking me questions that I feel is too private for sharing!
(Cheh. Maciam I so like to ask you liddat.)
i seem to be addicted to blogging too
i like your designs even though you took it from wordpress - it’s actually how you tweaked it to personalise!
Tracy: Hey thanks for your compliment!

woohooo!! new reference site!!! don’t know where you find the energy to manage so many sites!! i manage 1 simple one only can die man.
imp: But can tell you put in a lot of love and attention into your blog even though you’re a busy girl. It’s the quality that matters, not the quantity. And me, you probably can tell I don’t have much social life. Heh.

This is so funny interviewing yourself.
And your oh my so cute website is … oh my so cute.
I guess if we love doing something, we’ll find a way to make it work.
And oh, please don’t sacrifice toilet time for anything.
You might get something. I’ve learned this the hard way.
niceheart: You’ve got it. If we love something, we’ll somehow find time for it. And yes, will not fool around about the toilet time.

such a capable lady! I wish I have the motivation to do all this!
msff: I think time is also an issue for you…

Another blog? Pretty cute leh!
You just gave me an idea. Perhaps, we should pool resources and start a moms’ blog, introducing new cool mom/baby gadgets/toys for other moms in Singapore. (Or is there already such a blog?) Other local moms can contribute too.
ee I doubt there’s anything really comprehensive in that respect here. Well, yes, it could be a sort of directory cum blog. But I’m not sure. The objective needs to be worked out and agreed upon. Contributors could have differing agendas for a project like that you know what I mean…when that happens, it could all start fine then fizzle out quickly.

Walau..I hope you don’t take up knitting and croucheting soon too.
I know two Malaysian blogging mums who manages lots of blogs, a few of them for PPP, and then knit and crouchet and I wonder how they manage all these.. when I don’t have the time to even update my 1 and only blog daily.
Let me drop by to check out.
zm: A matter of priority I suppose…
