500 Posts, New Layout!

Wah... even I am pretty shocked at the statistics...

I've actually written over 500+ posts* in total already, and I only started writing a little more than 3 years ago.

It started out merely as a "for fun" thing, and I wasn't really putting any effort to maintain it. Somewhere down the line though, I got more and more "enthu" about this and started to write a lot more frequently. From an average of like 4 posts per month to now; about every few days...

Anyway... looking back, I'm glad I managed to keep this up and running for so long. By now, it has become more of a habitual thing, and is really one of my favourite way to pass time... It's sort of like playing a game.

I think it's a great channel to express your thoughts. And it's a great way to keep a record of your life, keep in touch with friends, get the latest "funny videos" and entertainment, and maybe even improve your writing.

The biggest satisfaction actually though, is when years later, when you're reading at your past entries...

- And you laugh at the dumb things you've done,
- The crazy stories you've written in the past.
- When you cry thinking about the tough days you've been through,
- And realize how lucky you are right now.
- When you recall the high moments of the time,
- Or returned to events that changed your life.

I think these are the best things about writing a journal.

My greatest regret was not writing during my Poly Days, and the best thing I've done was recording down my entire journey in the Kindergarten. I think that may be one of the main reason why I'm so dedicated to writing my Uni Life right now. Haha...

Anyway... I decided to set up a new layout since I've been using the old one for like forever...

I don't think I have the talent to design something this caliber, so I grabbed this template from an open source site. I fell in love with it the moment I saw it... and didn't even bother to browse any further.

*Note: The actual published posts are actually just around 400. The rest were not published or removed already due to the dangerous nature of the internet. Heh... ^_^
