My very first blog…

Greetings Carbon 14 based units~! I blog in peace.

This is my first blog ever and taking my age into account, I should be ashamed that I’m only starting to now. But I don’t care…it’s all about the future and not the past (damn…that sounded so cliché).

Here’s how I got into this blogging thingamagic. I was surfing my favourite turtle forum after about a year of MIA and the first thing I saw when I logged in was a PM from Pelf. Now you must be wondering who this is la…she’s this gal who’s got the looks, the brains and the heart to do stuff that we only TALK about doing. I’m talking about nature conservation…marine turtles and river terrapins to be exact. Anyway, I’ll come back to Ms. Pelf in a while, so I read her PM…yadda-yadda-yadda…cut the long story short, I found a link to her blog.

Here’s the fun part, the first thing that entered my mind when her site loaded was “Wah lau eh~! So pink ar?”. Then I saw a post about her doing a turtle camp for 2 schools and it looked cool. I wanted to leave some comments and encouragement but I had no clue of what the heck to do. So I consulted my esteemed colleague and all round nice person who knows stuff about blogs and she showed me the ropes (or should I say the links?). I made my first comment and waited…and waited…and waited…”Eh? Why nobody reply me one?!”. I was assuming that Pelf was sitting at her PC waiting anxiously for my comment and was ready to reply as soon as my comment went through our nation’s Slowmyx lines to her PC.

Anyway, she did reply, which was an exciting moment for uncle-who-never-blogged-before, me. I was like “IT’S ALIVE~! IT’S ALIVE~!”…and then it occurred to me “Eh…I osso can blog mar…”. Again, I consulted my esteemed colleague and all round nice person who knows stuff about blogs and I got a rough lesson on how to start a blog. I found a link to WordPress in Pelf’s blog and TA~DAA~! you have me writing my first blog now. Me quite smart hor? :P

So, feel free to add your comments. Don’t be afraid, I won’t bite…hard. But, if I do see something I don’t like, I’ll track you down and whoop your gluteus maximus~! <— If you dunno what that is, just wiki it.

    Blogging is actually simple, kan? Well, at least I’d like to think it as straight-forward. And you make friends in a jiffy.
