5 reasons why… I’m blogging
Thanks to ‘CEO’ Alex Yeo’s tagging, this title allow me rethink the reason why I started a blog in the first place and to review if my blog has headed to the direction I wanted.
1. To get myself heard and to get in touch 
Although I enjoy working home and setting my own time on my tasks, I admit I somehow do feel isolated from the world outside. Pleasantly, blogging has opened up a new world to me, the people I met were very warm and I especially love the part where we are able to comment on posts, which created a discussion like environment.
2. To sharpen my weapons
I checked out many blogs daily to learn and to entertain myself. Miserably, I found that only a minority of blogs have a good flow where the writers can present themselves really well. That in turn created many readers unintentionally, even though their first objective for blogging was not for the money. I have always admired how well they could put things down in words and that secretly inspired me to start writing.
3. To have something to do when there is a thunderstorm
Whenever there’s a sign of thunderstorm, me and mom would frantically unplug all power cables from all electrical household items like the TV, modem, computers and laptops! I find myself really idle at moment like this! This is when I’d type out my blog post in Words while listening to the tic-tac-tic-tac music on the backgound, save it and upload it into my blog later when the rain stops. (You guess it; this post was written during a thunderstorm)
4. To spread my eggs in different basket
Yes, I’m happily earning a steady income from eBay; it also means that this is the only place where my earnings are coming. Many incidents have led me to think that we should really have more than one avenue of income… you know… things happen.
5. To absorb more each and everyday
Blogging is a completely different world from eBay and I am starting to learn a whole lot of things from it!! Your blog, my blog, Adsense, SEO, advertisings, clicks, CSS, whatever… there are something to learn everyday!!!
To me, blogging is just like brewing a good cup of coffee. It may need a little more time to get a really fine satisfying cup, but once it is ready, the result can really keep you pleased!
Whaddya think?

On impulse, I bought an ebook saying that blogging is easy and can make money, and then signed up another web host to host my blog. Now even have to give some FREE gifts to attract visitors.
Hi Jenny Thanks for your comment on my blog, your is the one and only comment. Many were filter by the spam filter. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
Hi Vedis, Thanx, i knew what u mean, only that i’m abit hesitant
Hi SK, please don’t sound so bad. I believe there’s way to make money in blogging or anything. But first we need some effort, and we reap the rewards later. Trust me, i’ve been there…
you’re welcome Jenny.
Sure, as long as you enjoy blogging. This is small matter. Do the things you enjoy.
Like me, I enjoy writing reviews of PPP and earn money from there. I now write reviews that pay me $5.$6..The highest so far is $12.
A review of 50 to 200 words ! kacang putih for me lah..ahhem..Language Tutor mah..
Within two weeks, 5 of my PPP posts were approved and will be paid $35.00…hehe..
Keep up your good work.
By the way, this is much faster than eraning from my Google Adsense lah.
Thanks again Vedis, i’ll definitely look into PPP and other adverts when the timing is right. Congrats on your achievement!!!
Thanks for the tag Jenny! I came to realise what tagging is about from you. I didn’t even know I was tagged when Desmond listed my name in his ‘successful secret’ tag! I will continue the tag on both topic in my blog asap…

Hi Vedis, thanx! spent some late nights on it!
