Old Uncle´s Nags
lim peh ka li kong
I will be 43 come tomorrow. A middle-aged man. An old uncle.
Why am I still writing nonsensical articles in this stupid blog of mine?
Why do I bother to write the self-proclaimed funny jokes?
On the eve of my birthday, I have doubts in blogging anymore.

43 years old does it constitude the golden age? Not sure or is it 50. anyway think there r older bloggers around like think lao auntie or something. (Not sure whether that is any comfort though)
Anyway happy birthday in advance =)

Hi OB, =p
I have been through this a couple of times, and almost stopped blogging once.
However, fact of the matter is, I am still here, although significantly less active than before.
Hope that you will continue blogging. =)

昨夜看到了這一篇、 衝動得想給你留個條。。
耗費了整個夜晚、卻還是吐不出一個字來
回想前些天你不是才跟偶說、寫部落不過是自爽。怎麼隔幾個小時卻意興闌跚、興趣不再？
寫了些日子、原以為自己也可以封筆不寫、可總吃回頭草、原因無它、就是沒有更好的樂園讓我盡情揮灑。
偶想 "令" 先生也理當如此..
覺得再無新意、就該是時候多看些書了。。
休息吧、我的戰友﹗
期待你以新姿態再筆耕

Dear Uncle Beng,
happy birthday. but i must say that your maths is entirely incorrect.
we all know 1 + 1 = 2 right?
but for age, this is how you add up.
Current Age = (Current Year - Year Born - 21)/2 + 21.
so therefore you are only 32 y/o. too young ah!
blogging is for the same reason - perhaps sometimes, we feel a bit lonely, or just (in my case definately) need an outlet for anger, stress, sorrow and perhaps, just a cyber punching bag.
it is when you get those little comments, its like that, sometimes, we dont feel some much like living on an island (excluding Singapore hehe), also to swap some doraemon collectable, but mainly for the above paragraph.

imnothere said...
joking aside, i seriously, provide using common sense and moderation, that blogging is bad or complete waste of time. when is the last time that you sat down, write an essay/letter and contemplate what you did and what you should have done? since high school, we only wrote just enough to get the grades from the teacher or for work. therefore blogging, in a sense, is a kind of self-moderating/improving of own's character and behavior. although sadly that many people just don't write (in diary) and type rubbish on blog.
i guess i better finish while i can. i am getting long winded year-by-year!

这里还是俺的游乐场，如妳所说只是真的觉得意兴阑跚。
书，我从来没有停止阅读过，正确来说，我每天都在看书，我读得杂、也读得多。西米碗糕的书类我都阅读。
如再动笔杆子，文法、内容应该不会更变。

Haha! This is a blog lifecycle thingy.
Blogs frequently survive for 2 years (or it may be longer) and at the end of this tenure, the blogger tends to either decide to stop blogging altogether or start a new blog elsewhere while leaving the old one intact or deleted.
Bloggers start to wonder if the blogs they like so much are really serving whatever conscious or subconscious purposes which they are intended to serve.
The responses from others (bloggers and non bloggers alike) can influence his mindset as well. I for one blog lesser now than before about people around me for obvious reasons.
I have survived a couple of end-the-blog crises. Hope to see you pull thru too. =)

hoy!
I have doubts about blogging all the time! and i dun even write as much as you! think about blogging like blood donation....it's voluntary, you dun have to do it, sometimes you dun even know if the blood u give will help or will get thrown away after expiry, but hey, when you finally drag yourself through all the trouble and pain, it feels all right. and the puncture scar reminds you that you are dedicated at least to the endeavor, however lax a donor you are.
Oh yes, I need to make this point: you really never know if you gave someone comfort or help. I myself cheer up immensely with your entries. even my cheena improved abit from reading you.
analogy aside, it's good to read back what you wrote sometimes. its amazing how much you'll learn abt yourself over time.
