Well, here we are again. Face to face. If you remember, I made a prediction that I would write in this thing maybe five or six times and then never touch it again. How wrong I was! I wrote in it only twice or thrice more, and then never touched it again... for 15 months! I can be such a fool sometimes.

To think that I have been wasting my days doing work, having conversations, traveling the world (well, nearly 1% of it), eating food, sleeping, etc., when I could have been updating a webpage that no one ever reads.

I guess I should be questioning why I am even writing this as though I have a captive audience.

Personally, it is good to add some distance between me and me again when I read it. If I don't and just write as though I were writing to myself, there would be a tendancy to simply skip over stuff because, well, I think faster than I type and I could simply recall the memories I have of my opinions faster than reading them. If that makes any sense.

Plus, maybe one day, someone will stumble across my little patch in cyberspace. Probably not, if only because I'm too self-conscious to go around promoting this thing. I remember that I used to have a webpage at university, and everytime I mentioned it (which was rare), people made fun of me. So, to be safe, I'll just let John Q. Public stumble across it while looking for pornography.

I suppose I should make some sort of prediction like the one I made when I first created my blog. I predict that I will post seven or eight times between now and the end of the week, and then my postings will decrease by eight per week, until next week, when I don't publish at all.
