blogging is sooo much work!

whew... just finished leeching off http://bloggertricks.com/ for some tips on how to enhance my blog... added a lot of meta tags, inserted a counter, submitted sitemaps and finally added my blog to a lot of blog directories... my neck hurts and i got hungry (ran out of oreo... damn...)! whew... hope it's worth the effort...

i will maintain this blog... i will maintain this blog... i will maintain this blog...

i've had "blogs" before... (forced by society to conform)... 1 in friendster (flooded with poems) and another in multiply (flooded with poems and emo-ness)...

then, i was invited by workmate, shirgie, to join this blogging event held by the digital filipino club (hope i got the name right)... at first, i was hesitant... i told him that i didn't have a blog (i haven't blogged for over a year)... still, the idea of free food and casino play lured me to join... i left a comment on the site he gave me to serve as my invitation to the event and gave my multiply site to serve as my "blog"...

come july 18, 2009, at the grand regal hotel, i was given the microphone to introduce myself and my blog... i felt ashamed because i was introducing a dead blog after pigging out so much... then again, the shame only lasted a few seconds and it was replaced by a rather strong desire to try again with blogging... maybe at least the next time i get to join another blogging event like that, i could be proud of introducing my blog...

so here it is... i will really, really try to maintain this blog... as of know, i've got a lot of ideas to populate this blog... i hope i won't dry out in the long run... i also hope i'd get to have some readers or followers or at least some people to comment on my posts...

I WILL MAINTAIN THIS BLOG!
