The Thing About Blogs Bloggers II
After much prodding, I have decided to post an entry. Here's how things went.
Today, I woke up. I went to the toilet after turning on my room lights, which sort of woke my brother up. He was very irritated. Then, I brushed my teeth, washed my face, did the things a person does when he/she wakes up and then, I left the toilet and switched off the toilet lights.
I walked out and laid on the sofa. Was feeling very lethagic. Felt like sleeping again. But I couldn't because there was school today. So I trudged my way down and I saw Thomas and gang. He waved to me but I thought he was waving to someone else, so I turned around to see if there was anyone else he could have been waving to but there was no one. So when I approached him, he smacked me and was like "I waving to you lah." Lol. Then talk talk talk then bus come. 265, non-air-conditioned. Thomas didn't want to take the bus thus we took the next bus, 268, air-conditioned.
Then we reached school. Had a very normal day. Had biology lessons for the first period, then MsBalan came in to take us for Literature. Many of us didn't do our work, so she forced us to finish them before she would move on. So we spent the whole period doing literature homework that was supposed to be done at home. Then the bell rang. Next lesson was maths. Very fun because MrFam not teaching and we get to do our own stuff. Then was recess.
During recess, we ate. I had salted egg, fishcake, mutton curry, chili and rice from the Malay food store. Very nice.
Then we went back to class for more lessons. Chemistry was boring. Then had two more periods of literature again. Had a lot of fun because we were working in groups. Then we were asked to come up with 15 questions regarding the text, 12th Night. Very funny because we cracked lots of jokes. Damned fun. Time passed really fast and it was soon the last period. MrsEss took over because MrsSelva had lost her voice. Had quite a interesting lesson.
Then the bell rang, and we went outside to by lunch. Ice-cream. Then we ate in class and then OMHan came and told us not to do it again. Oh, I forgot, it was also raining. So we had chemistry remedials. Ended at 3.30pm and then I came home. Took bus 165.
Then come home lazed around. Played some online games, then had dinner. And now, I'm blogging. Tomorrow is a Friday. Got P.E, will be quite a boring day. Thinking of playing hooky. But nevermind, O levels coming soon. Must go to school.
Okay. Now, I must go le. Very tired. Blog tomorrow again.
I blogged. And I have no [
expletive deleted] idea how some people can actually do this continuously. Goodness. I noticed how many people actually blog like this. From the smallest events like brushing their teeth to big things like eating lunch. They must really have an exciting life. So much to blog about, so much to share. And it sometimes makes me wonder how much brain capacity they have, seeing that they have so much to remember. It took me an entire hour to remember what I did today, and it's just for today alone. Imagine doing the same thing everyday. I'd go bonkers.
So I tell you, if I ever start blogging like this, kill me.
Okay, I admit that I do blog similarly to this, but only 5% of this really . The point I'm trying to put across is that we really should be discerning about what we put up, not anything and everything. And when we really do have to, at least condense it. Put the really interesting and important things up.
I mean, people wouldn't want to read about what you had for lunch? Unless of course you have humans for lunch, which would make it REALLY interesting. Neither do they want to know if you had brushed your teeth in the morning or not. They don't really care. Unless of course, you swallowed your toothbrush while doing so.
What readers REALLY want to know is whether you were knocked down by a car, got pulverised by a bear, got impaled by pipes while a truck was reversing or if you helped to save a unfortunate sheep which had gotten itself stuck in the gullet of a huge snake. Nobody really cares if you had crossed a road safely and made it across one piece or walked passed a truck.
The next time you blog, think about this. Make the right choice, post the right entry, make things interesting. Post about how you got attacked by bees, and not about how you saw a bee. And it will ensure that your readers stay loyal and new ones join the others
in worhsipping you and your blog.Sheesh. This sounds like some cheesy political campaign. But rest assured, this
is actually a conspiracy to goth-tify the world, by making them post sadistic happenings isn't.
