Blogging is not as what Ms Peter told us

Back from my youth camp... it was a nice experience...
but anybody would be able to know be tell that it was coordinated very confusingly... haha...

anywayz... had quite a pleasent time over there...
especially with the cookout and the ASH being the self-proclaimed Ramly burger franchise...

the synthesizer was especially heavy...

=X

but nothing a guy can't carry rite? hahaha...


many people have a perception that I am a timid, weak and innocent little boy...
well, in many aspects, I certainly am...

but I know that deep inside, I'm quite a complicated person...

for those people that offended me in secondary school... haha.. you should know what happened when I get rough...
*hint.. I KNOW how to wack a person into a comatose state*

I hate cockroaches and basically almost all insects (That includes butterflies as well for those who can imagine that I would like those irriating stuff)...
Sometimes, I like to act timid and give the people around me a good laugh.. but frankly, I could squish a bug as easily as I can play Flee Fly Flo on the piano... I remembered I threw out of the window a 5 cm long cicada in a hostel malaysia because it was getting irriatingly noisy at night...

I hate insects, and most of the time, if they get pesky, I will eliminate them...

=P

sigh... what does it take to be a stereotypical guy? I kinda hate the image of being one anywayz... thats why sometimes I prefer to do the alternative stuffs....
you could call it following my heart...

I'll call it - I do what I feel like doing...


Miss him so much...

its been awhile since I saw him... I miss him terribly... but I know that I MUST not develop a need to see him everyday...
i'll... only cause him more trouble...

though i know he misses me alot too rite dear?

haha..

*hugz*

I love ya more then you love me.. =P

lets go eat lots and lots of Ben and Jerry's ice-cream and get fat k? haha...

oh yah...

Ms Peter actually said on... friday.. i think.. that a person defined Blogging as a tool with a degree of "Voyeurism and Exibitionism"...
in some aspect it is, but I really dislike the termalogy that that person used....

Voyeurism -
According to the wikipedia dictionary, most encyclopedias and english guides define the words "Voyeurism" as : A practice in which an individual derives sexual pleasure from observing other people. Such people may be engaged in sexual acts, or be nude or in underwear, or dressed in whatever other way the "voyeur" finds appealing.

well, unless you reading some sicko pervert's blog, who likes to post himself in his birthday suit daily, i think we should restrict this meaning to its intended form...

Well, using what that person said, people who like to read blogs may, to a certain extent "voyeur"... but what do you call a person who is reading another person blog's exectly? He/She is reading, with unwritten permission by the author to understand and relate to what is happening in the author's life.
As such, they can offer encouraging statements or opinions on whatever the author is going through or expressing...

Some bloggers do not even post their own lives, such as news-blogs, or blogs dedicated to the advancement of arts...
My friend started a blog to write beautiful poems, haikus and songs that he had in his mind.... how could one fall under the categary of exibitionist? If he does, then I guess everybody does so... the auntie who offers incense, the police who is issueing a fine, the director who is giving orders...

Exhibitionist -
as defined by princeton web dictionary, there are 2 definitions:

- someone with a compulsive desire to expose the genitals - someone who deliberately behaves in such a way as to attract attention
as defined by wikipedia:
- An exhibitionist is a person who practises exhibitionism as a psychological alteration of the human behaviour that neither implies the need to exhibit the genitalia or buttocks nor alterations of the psychiatric condition of the individual


I would like to say to believe that, as a blogger, I do not have any wish or such to exhibit my genitalia or buttocks, and I am perfectly tightly screwed in my brain, thank you..

and that statement, would be what most of the blogging community would agree on as well..

we write our lives down, our opinoins down, our minds down, to share with people what is going on in our lives, with more advantages then just a few, it is far more edifying then writing it and sealing it in a diary... where no one will ever know who are you...

people whom you lost contact with over the years, can read a few entries of your blog and know what is happening in your life recently..
rumours that has been circulating around you can be substantiated and quelled by a few blog entries...
globe-wide sympathy can be rouse by a few touching lines posted on a blogger's blog...


no, the blogging community are not a community of voyeurs and exibitionists..... we ARE, a dignified community with similar mentalities as you and I.

Thanks Ms Peter for sharing with us whatever that person said during the International Blogging Convention... we realized some truths today -

That person is definately a sex-monger (substantiated), or a very, severely (but sadly) disturbed person....

The Internal Securities Act or ISA acts on stupid imbeciles who do not control their language, mannarism or individuals with disgustingly low EQ...
[Author's Note : Hi! ISA, if you are reading this, keep up the good work in the continual restriction of languages that disturb the peace]

We, the blogging community, (mostly) on the other hand are a well-mannered lot, with suggestable opinions that may enlighten the community on certain aspects that we have on our minds...

Dont be discouraged DMC bloggers on hearing such statements as that on friday, be proud to share what miracles God has given you in your life....

Everday is a miracle, dont waste it - share it =)

i dont wanna close my eyes... i'm so scared this is just a dream... Love, can take you to the highest heavens, but when you fall, its a long way down...

*hold me close... dont let me go... ever...
