I've been blogging for more than 8 months already, and I've been reading other people's opininions longer... and comparing theirs with mine, I can only say one thing... I AM A VERY SHALLOW GUY...
There have been a lot of blogs that I've seen that are so politically charged and nationally motivated that their entries alone make you want to do something to promote change... While mine is about comic books, perfumes and the occassional bitching about my having no love life... How pathetic is that?! They write about real important stuff... I write about myself... and nobody seems to be interested... at least I'm seeing that a lot of people are snooping around my humble little site... That gets me inspired to write a little...
Funny thing though, I noticed that funny sites are always popular... as well as people who have a huge grudge against the planet... what's up with that?! Anyway, it's an entertaining read, that's why they're hits with people... I'm not going to tread that path because I'm not that kind of person... although there would be times that I'll pour out my rage here...
One more thing I notice people like to put on their blogs... poems... I don't like poetry... In my life I've written only about 3 poems... They all suck!!! Im a writer (in my opinion), but a poet... Hahahaha... But poems are good entries... if you're lazy just write a poem... problem with that is, it can be easily plagiarized as you cannot put a patent (correct me if Im wrong about this) on your works of art... I can just copy paste these poems and tell people that I wrote it... which I won't do... ever... believe me... If one day you see a poem on my blog...
there is a strong possibility that I fell in love...
Hopefully, by this year, you'll be seeing a poem on my blog...
hey. no blog is better than the other. they are all unique so go on with your blog, it's all ok believe me. :)
ReplyDeleteand there's one quote i learned from some bloggers (or xangans):
"i write to express, not to impress." - i keep that in my mind too. ;)
aajao :)
A blog is an online diary, which you tenderly allow the world to read. Yes, there may be more politically active blogs out there, but you're comparing apples and oranges here. Not one is better than the other, but people just have varied ways of expressing themselves. In fact, the most popular Pinoy blogs is usually about showbiz, and about a gay guy who strikes a pose with his handbag. Now, how shallow is that?
ReplyDeleteFeel free to write what u want. Nonoy says it right by saying, "I write to express, not to impress." This blog is for you, as my blog is for me. Continue and more power! :)
