Okay. First I'm gonna be frank with everyone (or no one at all). I'm not doing this blog for any attempt of writing brilliant stuff or keeping track of life. As a matter of fact, I'm not expecting any audience at all, so I won't pay any attention to politically correctness or paragraph structure. It's going to be murmuring sometimes and well-composed posts sometimes. Deal with it (I really like the sound of this claim but pity that I never got the chance of actually using it). By the way, there'll be no emoticon in my posts. I'm only using them for fear that people find my not so funny.
This blog serves as an attempt to learn what it is like to:
1. keep a blog in a foreign language (as my native is traditional Chinese).
2. keep a blog that probably no one is seeing (a good thing about that is no one'd expect anything! No pressure, yeah).
3. post some reviews or prose that lie in the Internet like uninhabited islands (mainly to see if posts will truly be noticed by totally strangers without help of social network). I'll probably start from novel and reviews.
4. keep a blog with very, very few images. It's sad that images are killing our imagination with words. I used to keep a blog for about 4 years (in Chinese) with lots of embedded images and videos, and would like to do something different. One of the reasons is that I found some people leaving comments without actually finishing my post...and I sometimes suspected they thought they have after skimming through the images. Also, I'd like to be a very inconsiderate blogger who do a lot of words without emphasizing anything with highlights/different fonts or color. I'll still do images of book/movie when it comes to reviews.
If you're reading this, do not hesitate to give comments even if you think my posts suck. Like I said it's an experiment. I'm not a teenage girl who only wanna see 25 "likes" on her post when she did a faked weeping self portrait with her smart phone.
