Beginning

Run my name though your computer
Mention me in passing to your college tutor
Check my records, check my facts
Check if I paid my income tax
Pore over everything in my C.V.
But you’ll still know nothing ’bout me
You’ll still know nothing ’bout me
–Sting “Nothing ‘Bout Me”

I have made the decision to keep a blog online numerous times. I can’t say whether I’ve succeeded or failed.

After the final exams, I returned home and checked my journal when in high school. In the blue-colored notebook, I noted what happened in my life freely. Most of the content was trivial, some thoughts foolish, yet they are all traces of my life.

I have two blogs. The first one, which you’re viewing now, is where I try to run with my personal style and touches. Some of the posts here are deliberate and contrived. The other one, which you can link to from top of the page, is a place where I keep information randomly. I’ve come to realize that there are too many excellent bloggers out there, and there is no way that I can achieve the same level as they do. What is left for me is authenticity.

From now on, no matter I’m posting here or on my old blog, I will try my best to be genuine.

It is scary to reveal myself. However, as Sting says in the song “Nothing ‘Bout Me,” even if people have read and listened to all his works, it is impossible to know him unless they have personal contacts with him. I guess this theory applies to me as well.

Post on!
