Over a year or What this blog is really for April 23, 2008
Posted by Sharny in : Blogs, Internets, Life, Thoughts , trackbackI hadn’t realized that I started blogging that long ago and of course I’m very glad to say that no one is reading this blog still. I never set out with the intentions of becoming some big blogger, not at all, I don’t really know why I started other than perhaps because I’ve always loved writing and at the time I had no outlet for all the thoughts and opinions buzzing around in my head.
More recently I’ve come to realize that actually the point in this blog is quite simple.
It documents my life in these nuggets of text but unlike an actual diary it’s on the internet so it’s at least possible for people to read it. Because of that fact, I have to organize what I write into something internet friendly but perhaps more importantly I can’t write anything really stupid that I would never want to read again. That’s the massive risk with me and diaries, massive exaggeration of feelings and events so as to make myself look unbelievably stupid if anyone (or even myself) where to read them.
So yes, in twenty years I can look back at the posts in this blog and remember the chunks of my life I am experiencing now, the things I might forget such as the fun of my first gigs with opium toad or my feelings approaching my A level exams.
That’s what’s important to me about this, the fact that it’s on the internet just means I can use it to maybe get things indexed on google…
