Blogging Matters..

It seems pretty ironic. During the school semester, where I have tonnes of work to do and piles of readings to digest, I would somehow find lots of things to blog on. Be it Rog's ups and downs, my anger towards certain people, my driving experiences etc. Now that school has ended and I'm techinically speaking on vacation, with so much time to spare, I have nothing to contribute to my blog. I came up with numerous explanations for this weird syndrome.

Unlike some people who treat their blog as a diary which they record practically all their daily activities, I'm not one with such a habit. If I've to do so, I think my blog entries would be the same on alternate days due to my boring and routine lifestyle.

A second reason would be that I tend to write when I'm frustrated, angry and upset over some matters or someone (which I definitely would not mention the name in case that someone happens to stumble upon my blog or happen to be one of my friends). I've no intention of making enemies with anyone. Even if I'm really pissed with someone, I'll just give a vague description of what angers me and make sure I leave no clue on who the person is. So since I'm basically enjoying myself just before I start work, I've nothing to be upset about and hence, nothing to write in here.

Happy events are not included in my blog. The only joyful things that I record would be Rog winning tournaments. To me, happy, sweet and satisfying moments need not be recorded down. They would be forever registered in my memory. And seriously, when one is in high spirits, one need not tell the whole world about it. I treat my blog as an avenue for frustration, which explains my lack of entries in sharing wonderful moments that I had with anyone.

Personal thoughts and feelings are seldom penned here. That's the difference between a blog and a diary. A blog is one where everyone has access to whereas the old-fashion handwritten diary is for my own personal reference. I've no intention of letting anyone know who I'm really disappointed with and with regards to what matter, who I dislike or like and what I'm feeling at whichever moment of time. I've to admit I'm no saint. I do bitch about people at times but this is not the right place to do so. My best pals and my good old diary share the 'honour' of listening to my whinings and complaints.

I'm currently watching the last episode of this more than a decade old Hong Kong TVB drama classic. It brings back lots of nostalgic moments. The new offers excitement and refreshing moments. However, in my opinion, the new can never replace the old. I'm not only talking about tv dramas, but also blogging and most importantly, people.
