Unwell

Sigh...unwell and kept home unwillingly by my rioting gut. Might as well update my blog and get my creative juices flowing before I even attempt at starting my thesis.... how I dread it. It churns my insides even more than its already churning now...

Y'know, I have a very opinionated friend who says blogging is like prostitution. This was awhile ago and sure, I see this friend's point on revealing your life to complete strangers and all the doo duh. Question is... do I agree?

I havent been writing much, prolly cos I have nothing to say. I could say how Tet's mom came and how XmenIII was good despite what people said. What would it achieve? So does this build evidence towards my friend's opinion?

Not all blogs are completely aimless like mine. Alot of blogs are really entertaining to read. Even if it is a 16-year-old writing all of her daily perks. End of the day, how is it any different from reading Roald Dahl's autobiography? I enjoyed both of them...Boy more than Going Solo though. More anecdotes. When are you a celebrated author, and when a cheap prostitute greedy for the world's attention? Are both much different? An arguement against my friend's opinion?

Its been awhile since the statement was made. Maybe a couple of months. Maybe more. Still no conclusion have I.

when your blog is for yourself and your friends i doubt the world will want to read it.

calling it 'blog whoring' or what other names they may call it is a crude generalised reference to those who are attention seekers.
