ANNIVERSARY NAMIN!!!!
Today, I am celebrating me and my blog's first year anniversary (please visit the archives for my very first journal entry). Imagine that, one year's worth of entries... This is by far the most enduring relationship I had with a journal, since my previous ones didn't get past the second month.

Blog, I promise to love you forever... by forever, I mean until the
arrival of the next cool online journal. hehehe...

Seriously though, never in my wildest imagination did it occur to me that this blog, which is the outcome of residues of a painful experience and repressed teenage angst, will weather all the odds to reach it's first birthday. Why was that the case, you may ask.. Well, considering that I started this with neither html knowledge nor any technological savvy, and armed only with meager writing skills, you have to admit that my keeping a blog is really close to an impossibility. I think that the only fuel which kept this blog running is the burning desire to prove my existence to the world, which is also a failure, since my blog only has 5(?) regular visitors, myself included.

Nevertheless, I am keeping this blog.

Dami na naming napagdaanan e...

In the past year since I started this blog, my observation and writing skills have considerably sharpened. After the birth of my blog, I tend to see things through blogging spectacles... I automatically switch to my blogging mode, thinking how I would write particular snatches of my day in one post. Behold, I have turned into a blog geek.

As I browse through my archives, i can't help but notice that my posts can be classified into two: trashy posts and the not so trashy posts. This can be furtherly subdivided into the following types: whinings, pinings, shitty poems, tributes, and pseudo-intellectual mumbo-jumbos. Now, that is quite an impressive buffet.

Cheers to my blog, and to the years we will face together... jotting down mental morsels, documenting events and milestones in my life, or just updating for the sake of informing the readers that I am still alive... I sure hope we would not tire of each other's company.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank my readers... Mahal ko kayo! *doing the Sandara wave*
