I have always wondered how it would feel like to post something on a blog. I mean, for some people, it's like breathing, as easy as A-B-C. I wondered how people would feel when they read my posts; would they enjoy it or would they view me in a whole new light? Of course, to date, I still have no answer to this question, seeing as how I have yet to put up any posts.
Then came the next mind-boggling question: What would I write about? Did I really want to write an expose on my personal life for the world to pick apart (not that my life is that eventful in the first place)? But if I didn't write about myself, would I then have enough materials to keep the readers suitably entertained?
Out of the blue, an idea struck! It is what I coin as a 'Eureka!' moment. I felt since I was an avid reader (okay, so I don't read non-fiction or biographies, so sue me!), I could write a blog about all the books that I've read and do my part in instilling a reading culture in my fellow country(wo)men! So, I booted my computer and eagerly proceeded to blogspot.com to create my account. Fate had it that I wasn't destined to have my own blog about books. I can feel some of you raising your eyebrows at me. I'm getting to the part... I had no name for my blog!! *sharp intake of breath all around*
Of course I did try to think of one, what do you take me for? But with no inspiration forthcoming, I decided to find some via Google. And there came the demise of my well-thought idea! There were already so many book-blogs around and apparently they read more than I do!! I deflated faster than a pricked balloon...
Weeks later, my grand chance of a lifetime arrived! It came in the form of J and the Twins setting up a new blog (well, you're looking at it!). J then graciously invited me to share my thoughts on their blog and I snapped up the offer quicker than you can say, 'I accept'.
Well, I initially considered making my debut post by blogging about J's first clubbing experience. After much thought, I didn't think that'll be much appreciated. So obviously I had to think of something else to write, and of course the title as well...then I got up to my usual musings and hey, whaddaya know? I've written enough word count for my first post! Enjoy...
