A dash of me

I live and grew up on a little island in Asia. This island is the miniature and milder version of New York City. I like where I grow up, but sometimes it can get quite tiresome. Last year, I almost moved to NYC for an internship with a publishing house. Now I am going to school in Hawaii.

I love to write and would love to be able to travel too. I believe in giving my best in all that I do. Like the person next to you, I too have my own ideals and am individualistic. I want to live life to the fullest of it ability, and I believe if I try to, I can. I am not a believer with the theory of living my life for others because, I don't want to have to say, " If only I had done this/that."

I don't want to have regrets in life. I like and enjoy meeting new people, I find that the experience is refreshing and very exciting.

What Happen?

Some years back, Kenneth, my stalker called me up and asked if I have a blog.


Oriental Lass: "What is a blog?"
Kenneth: "Its a place where people write... "
Oriental Lass: "And... what do they write?"
Kenneth: "Anything, its like a web journal, do you have one, where I can read?"
Oriental Lass: "No!!! Why would I want to let the world read my journal?"


My actual accquaintance with blogs came about with a chat that I had some years back with Suanie. We used to have online chats, and during those chats, either one of us would drift away. In those moments of curiousity, I would piqued into her "world". She mentioned she was reading some blogs. Blogs?! what are those I wonder...

For most part of the conversation, I remained silent before finally asking, "What did you say? What is a blog?" She told me what it was. My followup question was... "And people actually read them?"Well yes they do! Alot of people do.The rest is history.

Till this day, I realise, there are still a good number of people who still cannot seem to get the concept of a blog wrap around their heads.

Some day they will.
