You're Never Too Old to Start (Re)Blogging



Phew, it's been so long since I last visited any blogging site (tumblr is an exception, thatthing isn't a blog, it's a fangirl's deepest, most gruesome sin, but we aren't here to discuss that).

Blogger.com sure has changed a lot! I got this Microsoft Word-ish page when I clicked on the "new post" button, very easy to use; such vast difference with the abomination that is the old blogger layout. You know, the one whose features were too simple that you find it hard to edit anything in it and choose to type your post in document instead and then upload it afterwards? Yeah, that one. Also the agonizingly slow internet (freakin' dial-up connection, if you still remember that jargon) that accompanied it like a leech. If you can recall it, congratulations, you're either a pro blogger, or--you know--getting too old, like me.

If you can't... well, you're either a novice, or too young to visit this adult blog.



Nah, kidding. I'd keep my blog strictly T rated so everyone can enjoy it.

Probably.

Sometimes I'd most likely feeling merciless toward innocent souls so keep yourself alert, M-rated posts prone to appear out of nowhere.

Anyway, back to the topic. Why am I suddenly decided to throw myself back into the realm of blogging? Well, simple answer, really. Because it's 22.30 PM and I should be writing a plot for my collab novel, but my muse is dead and I'm bored as rock and had this unsustainable urge to write my stupid daily life in English. 

Why my stupid daily life? Because I don't think anyone would be lucky enough to be graced with such bizarre experiences that I've come across so me, being the kind person that I am, decided to share it and set you all a grim reminder that the world isn't as sane as it seems.

Why in English? Because Bahasa Indonesia isn't a funny language and you can't find much of punny jokes in it, and cursing in it is considered offensive by Indonesian people, and basically I just want to trick people into believing I'm very cool and smart.

Why do I use my old blog? Oh believe me baby, I've considered moving on from this thing. It's full of childish crap the 15-years-old me wrote, the writing competitions entries I already forgot ever signed in, the dead links to the stupid-old-me's favorite websites (which mostly already taken down). Even the header picture is a total horror, talking about the art of writing or some crap like that (as you can see yourself, but I'm just underlining the issue). Interesting, how I used to have such retarded frame of mind, but we all have our own dark times.

Will I blog continuously? Only God Almighty knows. And maybe people from the future, but since time machine has yet to be invented I don't think they can tell you so it's only God's secret for now. I have this habit of jumping from one subject to another without actually finishing any of it (I have attention span of a monkey-eating five years old, I know) so maybe I'd neglect this thing after one or two more posts. But who knows, maybe writing my stupid daily life amuse me enough to write more and more, even if it's just a few hundred words per post. We'll see.
