official blog opening

ok ok i give up....this is the first attempt to come up with an "official" blog due to ppl constantly demanding for one, since i write too damn much in my emails, message boards, forums, etc. it's 3.16am now so forgive me if like a thousand things are not done yet. but basically i buckled to the pressure because (a) i'm jus way too bored now, though things will prolly change once i start work on monday :(, (b) i figured out a way to reveal without being too revealing, hence the title of this blog...you'll find out what i mean once i start posting and (c) i figure i can always shut this thing down if i find i've got no time to play word games with you people. haha. i'm sorry but i like to be politically correct at times, especially when it concerns who i'm making opinionated comments about and such. and anyways, don't tell me you guys don't feel weird when you see your name (or you jus noe it's you) appearing in someone else's blog in a less than fashionable light...i have anyways.

so here goes my attempt to satisfy the masses...whatever. actually i couldn't give two shits about how many people pop by here, cos this site's just to answer your request for me to open my veil and let you in into my thoughts, which is really warped at times....esp these days when i'm not in such a rational frame of mind...which is prolly why i'm agreeing to this crazy venture too, haha.

but first and foremost a warning: you'll find the language here not as sweet as the pastor's. but at the same time you'll find me mentioning god and jesus more often than you'd like (for the non-christians). but basically i'm trying to express instead of chronicle my life in this blog here, so what you'll get is the essence of me (though you won't really understand it at times, but aha, that's part of the deception).

ok, warning over, let me explain what the heck i mean by saying i'm overt and yet covert. i've had so much free time this week to sit and idle my way through and my mind has been coming up with fresh creations...that i've finally figured out a way to reveal and yet not reveal too much, through the beautiful device of...poetry! yes, i've been reunited with my old love, both becos i've got nothing to do it's driving me crazy, and becos my drama n poetry teacher has been encouraging us to come up with this stuff before sch closed. he says everyone in our class has great potential, including me, but what do i care.

anyway, don't expect the usual restrictions for which poem's supposed to fit into, which they taught you in high school, where bla and bla must rhyme, and it must be how many lines per stanza, and whatever shit. cos i'm gonna go all blank-verse on here....total free poems. but of course i won't rattle on in poems cos i noe some of you just hate that stuff. i'll include a few paragraphs of writings, a few short stories which try to reflect my mood at the time, etc....basically various ways of telling you what i'm going through but just not in a direct way, as a normal blog, or a normal journal would have it.

for the absolute and whole truth, or for me to basically stop speaking in riddles and just tell you what the heck is going on, you'd have to ask me. i leave it to you to make the effort, because i can't afford to get sued for slander or criticised because of my opinions and way of seeing things, which i've come to realise can be pretty different from the general majority's, and as you know, being in the minority is always a risk.

and oh yeah, i'll include older posts and whatnot i've come up with previously when i have the time....entries and stuff i've written on places other than this. i dunno if i'll change the dates n stuff to fit in with the timeline, but if i do, just be assured that this is the very first post and the very first day of founding this thing, so if you see posts dated before this, don't get confused.
