A New Year, A Newer Blog

A new year, a new start...for my blog, at least.

I've come to the realisation that I'll never be one of those bloggers who are able to maintain and update their blogs daily. In fact, making it a weekly affair isn't any easier. It's really amazing to come across Netizens who blog, not only daily, but several times a day. There was one blog I visited, and the owner updates it every hour. I mean, is this is his day job or does he not have a job?

Then I ask myself, what kind of blog would make a good read? A political one, full of rants and raves? Or a journal-esque one, filled with reports on daily activities including the number of baths taken, number of girls bedded and number of places visited? Boring. I could talk about my life, but seriously speaking, how many of us actually reveal our inner thoughts in a blog? We reveal what we want readers to believe is our inner workings. Would we really go out on a limb and say 'I hate so-and-so' or 'So-and-so is a backstabbing bitch/bastard'? I think not.

So that's that. First I need to re-layout my blog page. It's so...purile. I can't even seem to find a particular font I like. Arial...Verdana...Tahoma? Sound like names of exotic dancers from Bali-hai. Not that I've ever been to Bali, mind you.

Speaking of which, I don't recall going overseas in 2007. My my, how on earth did that happen? Or not happen, depending on how one looks at it. I thought I had gone somewhere, I'm sure Bangkok or Phuket would have figured on the places visited in 2007. Goes to show, if one sets one's mind on something, it will come through, regardless if in actuality or delusionally.

Ah well, another tick on the things-to-do list for 2008. And maybe, blogging more regularly.
