05112007 | The reasons I blog

People are usual. A person is unique.

I just cannot simply squeeze myself into the gap between those two. For me, it's not like entering a living room just as opening up a door of my room. There are so many stops I have to make on the road here to there. I wouldn't certainly be able to ask directly someone totally strange, say, "It's been told this summer is gonna start sooner than any other years from May. So global warming. It really is a problem now, huh?" or "Joan Surtherland is a hell of a singer, isn't she?". There should be something like starting saying hello, having each other's names, some awkward moments and pause, beating around the bush and pause again before beginning a real conversation.

The thing is I don't particularly feel comfortable when I'm at the parties or clubs. All the necessary steps I'd better be through in a real conversation usually make me weird out a little bit. I find out myself in most cases where I end up giving up exploring someone in front of me. And I will probably add it up to my list again that, like 'people are still boring' or 'people who have got something in common with me are few and far between'.

But that turned out to be not true when I looked at on a monitor. It seems a whole different world with whole a lot different people and I can't help but wondering, where the hell are all these people? Where actually do they live? I found it easier to get acquaintance with people I want to make friends via internet. As a matter of fact, I've met some important people in my life who affected on me a lot thanks to the online. And those relationships never would be worked out if that started from in a real world, I guess. Not to mention the distance of the locations.

So this is why I blog. I blog to meet you living at a secret-hidden place somewhere out there. :)
