My Blogging before Mahjong
I had written a fair share of entries long before I ever started playing mahjong. I did it via LiveJournal, along side with a number of online friends associated with a past anime community. Connecting past to present, I shall link it here.
Here's the thing: I lost both the password and its associated e-mail. So, I cannot nor would not change any of my writing then. I turn back to it once in a while just to look at it. I may actually regret releasing this material, but it's a part of me. So have at it.
Despite everything that has happened so far, my general attitude to blog writing is the same. I have my thoughts, and I jot it down: either directly typing into an entry or pen-paper. Even now, I have a collection of incomplete draft entries to post. They just sit there waiting to be edited, amended, posted, and/or deleted. Plus, I have more on paper waiting to be typed, if I get around to it.
Deep down, my general purpose is to convey how I feel and the thoughts running through my brain. Text dilutes my actual thought, but we do not have the technology to directly access our brains. I could try video blogging or podcasting, but I'd rather not. Writing gives me the extra time to delve into my head. Besides, I am not confident in my verbal eloquence. My written eloquence isn't so great either.
Almost every entry is just a sliver of my mind's contents. It is just stuff.
