Confessions of a blogger

Tue, 4 Jan 2005 at 12:48 • Chetan • Filed under Moods and Blues

I was reading some of my old entries today and I found them, how do I say it, so um.. embarrassingly different. I could have deleted those non-sensical entries, but I’ve retained them to remind myself of my humble beginnings in writing (even if they were less of an entry and more of blurtings or outbursts—I cannot even begin to define them). In a way, this blog captures my journey through time.

Ofcourse, my writing has improved over the years, but I still correct my spellings or re-word certain sentences sometimes, after I’ve posted. However, even after corrections, I don’t remember altering the essence of any post.

Also, most of my posts are short. I avoid writing long stories generally because: (1) I don’t have the time (2) I cannot read long posts unless they hold my attention by subject (3) I prefer keeping this blog more in comparison to a physical diary as against a collection of stories. Well, that’s me.

Update: I found this post quite interesting with regards to post etiquette. Nice.

    Aimless browsing

    Aimless browsing today. Scot Finnie’s rant and over-glorified newletter…yawn…thinking of my long deserved vacation. Stuck in Malaysia since over a year and a half. Roti canai :) KL has given me a lot so, it’s obvious that I like the place. Not too different from my quiet home town—except for the flashy cosmo city that it is.

    I see what you mean. We all start off this way.
