and the story goes..

was having a late night msn chat with a friend ..

and he was telling me how he finds self-absorbed blogs really interesting..

my comment to him was..

aren't most bloggers self-absorbed ??

therefore wanna document their feelings/ perceptions/ incidents
that happened to tell the whole world?

i know i am...

I mean.. blogs are a way of journalling down our thoughts but it is,

in a strange way, a reflection of how self-absorbed we are..

we want people to read our blogs and know how we feel...

we want to draw attention to ourselves..

ok.. perhaps it may not be done consciously..

but indirectly, as we describe and paint the visuals for our readers,

we are talking about ourselves, our lives...

When i describe my joy or my frustrations,

it may have been a mode to vent out those pent up feelings

and may be perceived as an outward expression of those feelings..

but in one way or another, it is telling people: "hey,look at me!"..

anyway.. just my opinion.. but i believe its most bloggers' too

and though i dun represent the voice of every other.

it's just the way i look at things because i believe..

most of the time when we blog, we are aware of the presence of an audience..

(dun tell me you are not aware, unless urs is by "invitation" only)

and.. well.. being self-absorbed is not necessary a good or bad thing..

it's just the cry of every human..

to want to be noticed, to want to feel that he/she is special..

its all bout ego boosting , blahder...
