Oh hai! Iz me!
Today let’s talk about blogs and what people talk about. Don’t think that I don’t know who links me!
Because I do! And I have read most blogs of people who have linked me (if they show up on my wordpress)
How else would I get new blog reading material!
To be honest, I am not a fan of Innit even though loads of new blogs (some interesting some not so) come up every day on it. Cos most posts tend to be not very personal like Top 10 Ways to Get A Girl wtf or Reasons why (insert blog advertising company name) Sucks wtf.
I like reading blogs with personal content, which should not come as a surprise seeing my (and the rest of the Club’s – just admit it wtf) very kaypoh nature.
I like how people talk about their day or their lives and in very honest ways too. Suet does it when she blogs about my brother especially and I cannot get my head around how she does it.
Sometimes I do wish I could talk about my life and relationships as candidly as she and a lot of other people do. How they feel, what they think, whatever they’re going through in their lives.
But people who are close to me know that I have problems even explaining why I’m unhappy wtf. Or even when I’m too happy and I don’t wanna jinx something then I won’t say also wtf.
So instead I read people’s blogs and indulge in their lives.
One girl (you should know who you areJ) wrote about how her boyfriend surprised her with balloons in the trunk of his car.
Another girl (from Singapore) wrote about how her boyfriend would drive her to and fro wherever she was and buy lunch for her etc.
WHICH I KNOW is actually a very normal thing and possibly nearly everyone’s boyfriend does that for them time to time.
But to hear it come from the girls themselves in their own words was heartwarming. All the normal, maybe mundane things done by the right person for someone else may seem like nothing to others but is everything to that one person.
When I first started reading them I thought they wouldn’t continue blogging for long. But Berry and Lemon have started blogs to talk about their day-to-day dates and relationship.
And they’re still writing. Which guy would blog for the girl AND stick to it after a few entries!
I think maybe cos they’re anonymous, so they feel free to write everything that’s happening to them.
I wanna write also cannot. Whole wide world is reading! Mother reading, father reading, even father’s client is reading wtf.
Okay fine the whole wide world is probably reading about the romance of Berry and Lemon too but who doesn’t love them and want to see them live happily ever after!
So far they’re in the early stages of dating and I’m sure everyone knows just how fun that is!
The first part of the romance is all about getting to know each other, compromising each other’s favorite food so both are happy wtf, having the first fight which will lead both to know more about the other person:)
Everytime you go out with that person, you count down the hours till you get to see them, worry about whether this shirt looks nice on you…
*gets carried away
Okay la I guess you should know by now I know this stage of romance very well wtf.
Berry & Lemon are lucky enough to be able to revel in their love publicly. So let me live vicariously through their blogs la wtf.
If theirs is a fairy tale, will there be a very berry ever after? Wtf.

There’s no right or wrong to make love relationship publicity as long as both are feeling comfortable and cherish their love…

Hi Audrey,
I’ve been silently reading ur blog ever since the day kennysia featured u in his blog as one of the blogs he reads, and I honestly think that u write and express yourself really well, especially in ur entries from the earlier years.
I love reading blogs with personal contents as well. The pleasure of reading the chronicled daily lives of others can only be found in reading blogs and not other mainstream reading materials.
Sadly, imho, the emergence of blog advertising companies has killed the joy in blog reading, especially the personal ones. To me, reading blogs nowadays is like tuning in to a radio station at peak hours, where u are bombarded with annoying commercial breaks instead of ur fav music. Probably the only difference is that ads are not masked in radio commercials, whereas in blogs, they are.
Lastly, if i may add another comment to your “Things I miss” post, i miss the days where people blog for themselves, not for hits, money, and certainly not to deceive others.
Have a nice day at work and good luck with ur upcoming Japanese exam 🙂
読者: yea i know very well that i used to blog a lot better in the past.
i think most people first start blogging because of a genuine interest in it. then when blog advertising came about, they thought, why not since im already blogging i might as well make money on the side too.
but then sometimes it gets to a point where money starts to take precedence over everything else and that’s when things change.
i myself am facing this and am rethinking the direction of my blog:( but when it comes to blogging personally, it has nothing to do with money but the fact that too many people i don’t know are reading, and that becomes a barrier in how much i am willing to reveal.
like last time i didn’t have second thoughts on bitching about my exes or friends’ exes wtf but now i know my exes read my blog so how can i say that much? i would only be airing my dirty laundry in public and they would know that.
so it’s a tough dilemma la, one which i still don’t have the solution to:(
that is exactly why i want to read your blog 🙂
gee nvr imagine that you do read lotsa blogs. i prefer reading personal blogs too but i notice that many bloggers become too commercialize once they become famous and they talk less about their lives and more on ads/events.
it’s ok for not revealing..its ur personal life ma..but please dun stop blogging..coz i like reading ur blog *shy*
ya the online world is a scary place im also rethinking
i too count down the days till i get to see you /beg
i even know when you’re listening to mltr even though im not in the same room or building wtf
well, i thought u’ve already found the solution by password protecting ur entries, no? though i dont know how safe would that be =\
and since u said having too many people reading ur personal entries has become a barrier for u to blog freely, then why bother giving out the password to protected entries?
i’ve always believed that every person is entitled to his/her own privacy, just my 2 cents 🙂
ron: hahaha ya i do read your blog! but i don’t think you are very ranty la…sometimes only haha.
eve: why? *not getting it wtf
jay see: ya i do! but not so much anymore cos i dont have the time
weiqi: haha i won’t stop blogging la
jammie: ya seriously that was creepy but very cool wtf
読者: I meant before i implemented protected posts. With the protected posts, the barrier has been lifted somewhat, but again as I have told those who subscribed that the password won’t be available for every post because i might want to leave some for just my close friends.
hi audrey…yes yes…i luv personal live blog….sometimes can learn from their experience and gain knowledge too.
anyway, i like reading ur blog too….c yeah
i think that’s the process when u are getting famous then gotta accept the fact that lost of privacy which make u can’t blog so freely as u wish…
but i think u did well gal jus blog whichever u think worth to share and ppl like u bcos the way u r…
Haha, looking at your pic then suddenly I remember last time you wrote about u were handed a balloon by the balloon man. Hihi, now you look matured but still cute. Hiks, gonna miss your posts.
Well, anyway, it’s not a bad idea to password protect it for privacy reason too. However, don’t forget us who don’t have password ah~ Do post something in the public too okay ^_^
Appreciate this one so much. Good luck for your JLPT!!
i saw you before in Nuffnang events. but tis is the 1st time i visit ur blog..Ur blog looks great! i like what u wrote in tis article.
