Why blogging?

I just want to explain, rather, share why of all things to be busy about, I chose blogging. Blogging is pretty much like an online diary to me, or an instant scrapbook. You can design anything without having so much trash around the house and its a lot cheaper too! Creativity can be expressed in many ways, right?

I started blogging three years ago in Tumblr. I was just a reblogger during my first year in blogging, but don't judge! Reblogging is one way of blogging, it's just that it is put into words (or pictures) by other people and is re-posted / "reblogged" by other people. It's fun reblogging! After some time I got tired of reblogging and thought, "Hey, I can write. Why don't I write my own blog posts?". So there! I started blogging using Filipino, just posting what's in my mind, not caring what about the people that might read what I'm posting and stuff. After quite some time I started writing in English. I don't know why but I became cautious after that. Then I got lazy blogging there and  became super inactive to the point that I lost a lot of followers. I didn't blame them, though. Okay so blogging has been a part of my high school life. Sometimes when I'm really frustrated I type in what's on my mind and clear it out after. Hahaha! I'm crazy. When I have this feeling that no one will care, that's the time that I will post it. Turns out, people will care! Me=TH

I don't know why this became a story about my blogging experience. Sorry! Haha!

Blogging helps me develop my writing skills. I have this dream of becoming a journalist in the near future (and that future is really REALLY near!!!!). I have been writing since grade school. What I used to write is editorial news, so I must be formal when writing that. Using the word "I" is a sin, and so is using "wanna" and "gonna". When some representative from somewhere read my article, she scolded me for doing that! Lol! One of my unforgettable moments during my training... *sigh*

Sometimes I get really lazy writing using pen and paper because I'm a bit O.C with my handwriting. Now that it's summertime, I didn't get to practice writing. Wish me luck on the first day of school! I also have this short-term memory loss (like Dory! but I'm kidding) that I sometimes tend to forget what I'm about to write or my train of thought. Weird, I know. Or kinda. That's why I blog!

I think my story's longer than my explanation. Lol fail.
