The Truth About Blogging
November 9, 2008
…is that we all want to write out our thoughts.
We need a place to channel how we feel and how we relate to things around us. We want to write posts that are funny, witty, charming, all at the same time. We want to show people how we feel, why we think the world is a beautiful place with a multitude of colours, or maybe even why the world is shades of grey, gloominess that knows no peers.
The truth is that I’m not really suited for blogging. Sometimes in the shower I’d think to myself and have a light bulb moment on what to write, but somehow when I sit down in the chair it’ll poof away and I’m left with posting cute videos and funny pictures I found on the internet.
I’m done with 4 papers (which I didn’t have as much confidence as I hoped I would have in) and the year is coming to an end. So what’s next?
What happens when we all graduate and go out in the working world? Perhaps we will thrive and succeed and become rich beyond measure, and yet lack that single tiny little thing that makes us happy. Or perhaps we’ll be just the normal ‘working class’ and work our butts off chasing material things to make us feel that our lives are worth living and fighting for.
The world is such a beautiful place, and there are so many things to do. But which?
Which is sometimes better than why. We may not know why some things make us happy, but we sure know what it is.
actually i have the same feeling… looks like i am not a blogger-person as well.. no consistency.. not like people who really have the passion.. Anyway stay happy… CHEERS!!!
p/s: thanks for “teaching” us WIN!!! indeed that word makes me happy.. haha
that happens to me as well. I’ll be out and about and see something that I really want to blog about but when I’m back home, the whole thing doesn’t seem so appealing after all.
you’ll do well in exams =)
merlin, despite what you said, what you have written was pretty personal and true. And you write pretty well. Your thoughts, despite its gloominess, underline the inability of others to express themselves too, not to mention touching the minds of those who read it.
Well, happiness should be finding the things you want to do and be. Not which all of it. That is also the definition of a dream accordding to a drama. They say life is meant to be abundent. You write well keep on, still so fresh and full of enthusiasm for the things to come. You couldn’t hide it. It is nice
