B.E.L.O.G

I managed not to blog anything yesterday....yeah because I was suppperrr busy [lah sgt]


Anyhoos, today I'm gonna talk about BELOG/BLOG and everything related to it.

First things first, let's define what is a BLOG?

As the clever Wiki said:

A blog (a blend of the term web log)^[1] is a type of website or part of a website. Blogs are usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order. Blog can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.

Most blogs are interactive, allowing visitors to leave comments and even message each other via widgets on the blogs and it is this interactivity that distinguishes them from other static websites  [pesanan penaja, jgn copy-paste sebijik sebajak kedalam kertas kerja universitas ye...budak kecik pun boleh buat kalau gitu, xpyh masuk U]



Simply Siti said, a blog is a platform of expression. To express ourselves on whatever we want to express.


This brings us to the second point: WHAT DO WE BLOG ABOUT?


Well, that depends on the individuals themselves. Some love to share everything about themselves, from the time they get up until the end of the day. Some express mushy stuffs, some express their obsessions with cats, stems, PS3 [ok, ni semua contoh], WHILE others like to send beneficial messages, very informative with all valid quotes and resources. Others include writing about assignments, works, putting random videos, RECIPES!, selling stuffs  [Online Shopping Blogs] and many many more.


WHAT DO WE GET FROM IT?

Satisfaction- knowledge - an active working brain- improvements


As for me, I had always enjoyed writing. Not anything specific per-say, just writing and it can be anything. I used to write diaries and I had those colourful, with a little lock and scented diaries when I was a teen. Luckily it went missing after some time, if not, gue harus malu membacanya, xkental lah derr tulis2 dlm diary ni. Well, it happened a million years ago...hoho. 


As time pass by, humans were bombarded with the Internet penetration and people started socializing virtually, world-widely. [lol, ni mcm ayat2 paperwork kelas comp app ja]. Came along all the friendster, twitter, myspace,facebook and whatnots and not to forget the BLOG.

I was seduced by my sweet gorgeous mom-to-be-in-a-couple-of-months friend, Mrs.E/S to create my own blog. I vaguely remembered that she loves me writing  [correct me if I'm wrong ye dear...hehe]. So, then I started blogging. At first, I only wrote rubbish and nonsensical stuffs. Stuffs that was not that kental and beneficial but did suffice my dissatisfaction about a certain someone or two  [oh, how stupid!]. Gradually, I became wiser [nak jugak tu] and tried to keep my lines a bit, reader friendly and beneficial [ a bit lah], inshaAllah that is =)


The positive impact and this is talking personally, by blogging, it has helped me to keep my brains active and have a sense of control so whenever there's a sudden test or POP quiz or whatever writings need to be done in the classroom, I'd be prepared. You know, to goreng the sentences, LOL


Besides blogging, I also love to blog hop. I read blogs of assortment. You name it. From young married couples blogs, young mothers blogs, a chain of siblings blogs, Islamic fashionistas blogs, inspirational blogs, Islamic blogs and those miscellaneous blogs  [which I see is quite similar to mine...hehe ]. But, I don't see a lot of men writing because men are known to be sssooo masculin till they find it not macho to express their thoughts. I do read some but there aren't many  [or they hide behind a girls identity? wallahu 'alam]. Men were known to be good writers back then, during the age of WW1 and WW2 so that's very impressive to me.

I think it's good to write. Especially if you want to improve something out of you. Your language sense maybe? Weak in English? So write in English? apa? malu takut org gelak grammar berterabur? lor pedulik kan mereka, mereka bukan kasi duit beli beras pun. A wise person, instead of bashing people for their courage to improve, tries to share a thing or two of what they know so that knowledge is spread and not kept to rot unused.


Of course there will also be these people [also known as creepy anons ] who don't have a life or probably don't know how to blog that will pest your way or they might disagree with some of your thoughts. Just let them be and keep on doing what you're good at. I had those anon times, they are such joy to my eyes =)


So, I think that's all for today. Hope some of you did read this entry until the end....hehe....Happy blogging to all bloggers and happy stalking blog-hopping to all blog-hoppers. And yes, as much as we love to tell everything, try to keep some as secrets because words these days spread faster than diseases =). But, there's always an easy way out, make that really2 personal blog private.



Till then,

toddles~
