disconcerted.
ok yes ppl. i get it. blogspot is dangerous, blogging on blogspot is just like walking on eggshells.
but no offence, in e 1st place havent all of us been very cautious everytime we blog? whether its on blurty, livejournal, blogspot or what not. all online diaries are made public. dats the purpose of having your diary posted on the World Wide Web, isnt it not? i mean if we have wanted our everyday life and thoughts to be kept private, why don't we just jot them down in our own little hellokitty notebooks?
ok so everyone claims they're lazy to write, typing's easier. then why don't u just type your life out on microsoft word? or powerpoint or whatever word programs available on your own Personal comp?
and not publish it on the World Wide Web?
ok so your next argument will be that "but i wana share all my thoughts with my own circle of friends". why don't form a yahoo groups or sth, where only the ppl you have added can read bout your everything? then you'll be 100% (or well, 99.99%) 'safe'.
and hey, whether u're on blogspot, blurty and blah blah, the chances of someone u know accidentally coming across your blog are just about the same. cos WWW = World Wide Web.
if you're so paranoid bout a certain entry, u probably wldnt wana make it public in the 1st place.
and for your info, my sister's blog was on blurty, the apparently 'safer' blogging site. still she got FIRED from her previous job cos of an entry she posted there. and the person who lodged a complaint against her was someone whom she didnt even know.
so tell me again that blogspot is dangerous and blurty is safe.
then again maybe im too worked up over a couple of comments supposedly meant well for me. but im seriously just confused. to sum it up, they are all PUBLIC domains. the risks are always there, and everywhere as long as its on the WWW. we just have to be responsible for every word that we type here, just like being responsible for all other actions in our life.
get it?
sorry i dont mean to wage a war here. but im amused, and perhaps upset that after visiting my blog, ppl are so concerned bout e fact that im blogging on blogspot and 'putting all my frens at risk' of this and that and no one seems to have even mentioned a word bout my entry on the hotel thingy which u have suggested and u have obviously read bout it.
that issue is supposed to have gotten some of your feedback but apparently, none of the feedback is on that. so maybe u guys are not all that interested after those scheduling, planning and researching that i've done on Your preference.
cos right now it's already a Sunday and i was thinking of booking a 3 days 2 nights stay from wed-fri with which thur-fri are meant for u girls. u know who u are.
and i've not gotten a single response when its only 3 days away.
oh whatever. so now i've other plans. cos thurs rich's computer and my laptop will be arriving and we gotta be home. then what? i dun even know when can u make it and i've got so many more things to plan and so little time. urgh im getting frustrated cos i dunno how to schedule everything now. the following week i'll be even more packed. great. aiya maybe we shld once again, forget bout everything.
maybe i shld just go for a 2 days 1 night stay with rich from tue-wed.
and maybe you girls shld just come down to my place on sat, if you can make it and don't mind coming down. since my mum's holding a farewell for me at my place, with my relatives. there'll be no free stay though but there's free food. and i've gotta confirm with my parents by well.. TODAY cos they're making arrangements for the buffet on monday.
so u decide. and hopefully there'll be a response.
and by the way, the reason why i switched form blurty to blogspot was cos i thought a tagboard on my blog could be another avenue of contact between us when im overseas and blurty didnt seem to be able to host a tagboard (well i tried). cos not all of u have msn, and even then, due to e time difference, we wld most probably be online at different timings. and tagging's really easy for like short msges or opinions that u wana share with me.
but since u seem so insecure to leave even a trace on my blogspot's blog, then oh well. maybe i thought too much.
at the end of the day, i hope u'll not take to heart the somewhat harsh tone that's applied here. im really feeling flustered over everything now cos im so unprepared and messy. and u know what, i'll most probably regret ever publishing this entry once i wake up from my slp, or maybe even before that.
till then, we'll see what happens.
