Why Do I Blog?
I blog to express not to impress.
Who am I to impress either. Well, people think blogging is just another form of one's vanities. But
too often they think that
Blogging is a way to express one's personal
thoughts and ideas and put it into words. In turn, would somehow
inspire others, reflect, share one's point of view and the like. It's my way also to share my knowledge to other people.
Personally,
I meant this blog as an online journal , where I can freely write
random thoughts on my mind, my learnings, passage from my favorite book
or quote, experiences, friends, family, God and list goes on. I didnt
mean to change the world and make it a better place for you and for me.
Teheee! I mean it to share my views and opinion and this could somehow gives relief or
peace from thoughts that often interrupts my mind.
One thing I learned is that the more you blog, the more you write – and the better writer you become.
Blogging is a virtual art.
It's just like a painter sketching a landscape inspired by the
beautiful sunset, a pianist who compose songs in a lonesome night.
Certainly, in blogging, it is an ordinary person writing its
extraordinary thoughts randomly . Thats how I interpret blogging in a
way. Just like what I'm doing, I can freely post my
composed poem, personal photo shoots, etc
. It is something created with imagination and skill and certainly
gives us ideas and connection.
Blog- your own world.
You are fully responsible on how you will create your own virtual world. No
one can dictate what your next post will be, what appropriate webpage
design should look like. It really depends on you.
My blog has been through different
designs, skins, template and widgets through the years yet I never stick to just by one design as I always look for more and thus suits my taste.
I blog to refresh and learn more HTML code
Through the process of blogging, most people learn some HTML code
simply because it’s easier to make minor improvements to your site by
yourself than it is to hire and pay somebody.
Though I'm a
marketing student and neither do have subjects regarding html and
programming codes in college, luckily, I was able to grasped basic html
and other programming languages (java, turbo C, visual basic) during my
secondary years, thanks STI high school, especially my ICT teachers for
these extra knowledge hihi..
Actually, what you saw in my blog
wasn't the original template should look like. I added up some graphics,
deleted some codes, add some links, change the header, etc. You know,
something I personalized. It is permissible as long as I haven't change
the footer of this page where the maker of this template was linked (one
way to put credit). Certainly, I'm not that pro programmer, if I want
to change something and doesnt even know how, I consulted my forever helpful
friends-google and youtube for some tutorials and additional tips.
Blog: A look into your life.
Life documentation as it is. Sooner than what you think, your life wouldn't be just as the same as it
would be. Change is the only constant thing in this world.
You grow, you learn. You may soon forget to constantly update your blog
but one day, when you revisit it, you then remember things that had long
lost forgotten through time-experiences, artwork, people you've been
through, etc. some thing you can be proud of, some thing you can say
"Seriously? I've been through these?" and lastly, you may share the
stories with your grandchildren. Its a timeline and diary of your life I
would say.
It was year 2009 then when I started blogging
and my first post was about my best of friends in high school. I
remember I posted it in a way to appreciate the friendship that we had
plus our favorite song before. Thinking if things would ever be stay the
same. I wasn't even thinking the purpose of my blog or what next post
should I publish at that time, just childish and silly memories I had.
Now, its been 5 years in blogging industry *choos. Scanning those older
posts often makes me smile or cry *emotional* . How time changes
everything and how God puts things in his marvelous ways.
Should I stop blogging? Preferably not, hopefully not, not yet...
