I don't exactly know how to start my first post on my first blog. I am just happy I'm already in it. This is technically not my first blog because I had my very first in Friendster way back 2009, if I'm not mistaken. In there, I was able to feature my friends and my opinions about them. I had it posted in Facebook for their reference since I know and I understand that most of them already forgot they had a Friendster account... hehe! And I want them to remember my tribute to them.
But this is officially my first in a popular blog platform. My feelings: thrilled! Do I sound overacting? Yes! But it's really what I feel right now. I was like, "wow, this is it!"
I was not familiar with blog sites (though I know they exist), all I know are the blogs from Friendster which I admire at that time, and notes on Facebook. I never thought that there are different blog sites which are better and which offers FREE service for writers and writers by heart (that's me!). Yes, you read it right! I'm not a writer by profession. I'm only a writer by passion. I know that I have a gift for writing since I was a kid, but I underestimated it. I had hopes of becoming a journalist, but hopes were gone through constant reminders that I won't make money by writing. What do I know? Only one thing is certain as far as family is concerned, they will financially need my help one day. My dreams died, but not my passion. I feel it every time I write... may it be for personal or business purposes.
Until one day I came across a high school friend, which is a blogger and a writer, through Facebook. She was a co-editor in our high school newspaper. Through her I learned that I don't need to be a writer to be a blogger, that I can blog my personal thoughts for my personal desire. Then, voila ! My very own blog.
This blog will serve as a mirror of my thoughts and my life. I wish to share my happiness and my sentiments here. This is my sanctuary.... my realm.
Expect to hear more from me on my upcoming posts. 'Till next !
