I finally created my own blog outside of Friendster. I’ve been meaning to do this for some time now, even before there was Friendster. I just didn’t know enough about blogging then. Not that I know a lot now, but at least, I’m getting the hang of it, after blog surfing for several weeks.
I thought it’s time that I make my own blog that’s not with friendster because there are limitations to the friendster blog. For one thing, I found out that I can’t create Archives of my posts. I have to upgrade to a paid friendster account to do that. (Thanks, but no thanks!)
When I started blogging, I think about a year ago, I basically wrote for myself. I didn’t know if there were others reading my posts and I didn’t really care if they read them. I just enjoyed putting my thoughts on the net and it was a good way to de-stress. Later on, I found out that my friends were actually reading my blog! Hehe… I’ve received emails and text messages asking me to keep on writing because it was a good way for them to be updated about me. And then when I started blog surfing and posting comments at other people’s blogs, I was even more surprised when they responded to my comments. I also gave them the link to my friendster blog and they have also read my posts. Now I have found new friends through blogging. And I’m thoroughly enjoying myself.
And so… here is my new blog. A new home for my thoughts, reflections, rants and raves. This is my space. Welcome to my world!

hi ne. nice to hear from you. just hang on. i’ve been there. sometimes everything (as in everything – married life, being a mom, career, problems with family, even the news we hear/see on tv) just overwhelms you. we just have to hang on and believe that these, too, shall pass.
