i just wanna blog

i wanna blog i wanna blog
but things been hectic been hectic lately
work work and work and work
by hey looks who's complaining?

i always wanted to blog more but me being the 'perfectionist' and 'want-my-blog-to-look-good' me always spend a lot of time to make sure my post is a perfect post which explain my lack of post cause i can't get 'em perfect, not that those i've posted are.

see, that's the dilemma i have, have to spellcheck la, make sure all the html tags are correct and complete la it does take time.

sometimes i feel i should let my blog be a blog, which is a raw unedited thoughts, hmmm.. maybe i should start another one just for that.

different people have different style but i just love mine the way it is. it's your blog, just like your bedroom, your locker (which i don't have one) it reflects your personality, i tells about what kind of a person you are. whether you are diligent to check your spelling, your grammar or just being reader sensitive (not like the obvious lack of caps in this post), or you are a self obsessed, attention seeking or just plain some one who wants to get things of your chest. hey ppl can tell a lot from reading your blog and the same way you can 'tell' others what kinda a person you are they way you want others to perceive you.

am now in the capital of south korea, got here last week. wanted to that the opportunity being online in the hotel to blog but being occupied with cartoon network showing x-men evolution. i know it's lame.

weather is cold, but enjoy the cold breeze that freshen me up every time i love the fact i can't feel sleepy in freezing cold, but too much of a good thing is bad too. temp drops to one or two degree below zero not the coldest time yet, but hoping to see snow again. missing snow. i seen them the first time two years back and i miss them. snow snow snow ... weeee ... i am imagining seeing soft flakes dropping from the sky.

great food miss the food here, anyone that say that is nothing to eat in korean should bring me with them for the trip and i will bring them around. snapped lots of pic of the food will share with ya all once i got the time to upload.

as for now need to catch some sleep, no internet access in the new office that we just moved in this monday, so gonna be a disconnected day again.

see ya all! take care
