First post 2010

I am probably the worst blogger ever.

You see, I've had this blog since June 3rd, 2004 yet I've only had a total of 310 posts. 311, including this one. Over five years of blogging and my numbers don't even represent a single post per day for an entire year. Is this an admittance of how my life is boring and irrelevant? With the popularity of new technologies like Facebook and Twitter, all the more has my blog taken a back seat. I don't seem to have thoughts longer than 140 characters anymore. My emotions can now be summarized in several words and if I'm lucky, a couple of punctuations.

When people stumble on my blog, I always seem to get a varied mix of reactions. Some find it interesting and amusing, some find that I'm too angry at the world, while others say I talk too much, like I never run out of things to say. At the end of the day, I figure, I blog for myself. Since I have to quit writing alltogether, this is the only place I have left to write. As such, I'm not writing for anyone. Since it's a personal blog (i.e. one that doesn't aim to rake in cash), I'm not here to sell anyone any story. If I'm having a rough day, then I'd prolly throw in a cuss word or two. If I'm stoked, then I'll talk about whatever it is that's getting me excited and I don't care if it gets too long for anyone to read. This is my humble cyberabode.

My 2009 was not easy. It might have been the worst year of my adult life, if I may say so myself. I don't have any resolutions for 2010, I'm just hoping to survive another year. Hopefully, I'm able to document whatever brain fart or word vomit I'll have as I survive every adventure -- in 140 characters more or less... Ü
