The thing about blogging is that I'm a little confused about who my readers should be. Originally I decided to start blogging in order to keep track of myself as well as to keep my friends and family posted on what I'm up to since I'm never in their lives by the default that is where I live. What I didn't realize was that friends and family and myself was too big of an audience group to satisfy.
The question of subject matter surfaced when deciding to whom among the "friends and family" I let known the existence of my blog. I mean, what if I want to talk about the future move to Korea and some of the family members aren't supposed to know about it just yet? Maybe I want to write up on kinky thoughts or on ex-boyfriends? Eventually I decided that my blog will be a "clean" blog. Nothing dirty, nothing I wouldn't hang on my laundry line out the window.
But that's about to change now. Now, I WILL talk about everything I want. I WILL banter on friendships gone wrong; I WILL go on and on about the shoes I saw at the mall the other day; I WILL talk about how awful it is to work on a make-up gig in Israel because the people involved are so horrible; and maybe if I'm in the mood, I might even write about my political inclination or the lack there of. The only "family and friends" reading my blog posts are Michelle and David anyway. (Hello! and hello!)
So to celebrate this *bold* move, I'm going to write about Michelle (No not the one I mentioned in my earlier post.), a friend from Hong Kong in the upcoming post. (I am going through a growth spurt right now-- I'm mending things from the past.)

hehe so true. I started mine for my family and friends. I know my mom and dad read it but not too sure how many friends do. My guess is not as many as there should be. I have a whole lot more readers whom I've never met that read and comment.
So thanks for the comments.....I've also reponded back to you on my page too ;)
Can't wait to read the gossip (haha)
I swear, my family rarely reads my blog and I started blogging for them!!
Blogs grow and change and develop your/their own voice over time.
(Cute haircut, by the way.)
