Out of Nothing

Call me a latecomer. I have only heard about blogging last year. When I first heard about it, I thought that is kind of silly. I still think so. Did I just call myself silly? Yap. The reason I think it is silly is because I will lose my privacy. What if someone use the information I post against me? Will I be stalked by some cyber freak? These are some legitimate problems that may come back to haunt me someday. Oh well, I'll just keep intimate information to myself as much as possible.

I have not decided what I will be writing yet. I suppose it will be anything that inspire me. Nothing much... nothing exciting... or important...just gibblish... That's why I name my blog "Everything about Nothing."

You must be wondering, if I think this is silly, why do I even bother? I have my friend, Dee, to blame. She is a blogger and has recently wrote about our trip to Pulau Ubin. We have taken many pictures that day and she had them posted on her blog. I just thought it was the neatest thing. You see, I am visiting my friends and family in Singapore and had wanted to share with my boyfriend things and places that I am visiting. Dee's blog kind of act as an "electronic" postcard. I will be returning to the States tomorrow, and it will be at least a year before I see my friends and family again. I thought a blog will be the easiest way for me to update them about my life and thoughts.

Anyway, I met with Dee and Sufen earlier today and sort of promise them that I will create my own blog site as well. They are convinced that I will take my time (which means forever) since I am a procrastinator and always late for our outings. I want to prove them wrong this time... before school work consumes all my time and energy again. So, here I am, composing my first blog in the early morning while everyone is asleep. Dee and Sufen will be proud of me.
