The Birth of the Blog

For some reason, I feel like announcing the fact that this will be my first post on blogger. A first post is something to be celebrated after all. It's the beginning of something. Possibly, hopefully, something worthwhile and meaningful.

Now this first post won't be just an announcement; it will have actual content too.

Why have I created this blog?
This is a question even to me because the way it went was, I couldn't get to sleep one night and created this blog on a whim. After I made this blog, it was left empty for a good month or so because I didn't know what to do with it. Why did I sign up on blogger when I already have a livejournal account?! After thinking it through, I decided that, well, I made livejournal to be able to join the online Arashi community there so livejournal will be for everything Arashi and blogger will be for everything else. Yes, I think that will be a nice arrangement.

What is this blog?
As I've mentioned above, this blog will be for everything else. Interesting things I learnt, random thoughts that I think of, just really anything that's not Arashi that I think is interesting enough that it deserves a post. That said, I might write an introduction to Arashi or something like that to explain that there are reasons why I love them so much. I'm not crazy, deluded, fanatic or anything like that. Really.

Who are the intended audience?
I said above that I made this blog on a whim but I might have been influenced by my friends who have blogs too. So this blog is mainly for them. Dear friends, though since graduation we haven't been able to see much of each other, and the opportunities to meet up will surely decrease from here on, this marvel called internet is allowing us to keep in touch. Let's not forget each other.

I've always written but I was always embarrassed to have them read. But my dad said to me once that you write to be read. With these words of wisdom, I publish my first post on this new blog.
