I try and try and try......
but I can't figure out how to put background music on my blog. But I think it might be a blessing in disguise because logic tells me that if I succeed, the page will be slower to pop up. Plus there is the issue of copyright and even though I am not planning on making any profit out of anything used here in this blog, I better respect the rules. So maybe I should just forget about it.
We make plans, but.............
things don't always go according to our plans. Well I wanted to have odd posts per day and yet even this simple plan was unsuccessful. Hahaha. Oh, well...live and let live. :D

Learning is a lifelong process.
Today, I learned how to add Youtube videos on my blog. Thanks to Jesse. And yesterday i finally figured out how to put a link to a word or phrase. Please refer to the flag below. However I have not figured out how to link a word to a certain post. Like when you want people to refer to previous posts that are connected to your current one. :D There are still other things I have yet to learn. Like how to make my blog have background music. Though I suspect that will slow the page down. How to make a watermark on my pictures that I post here. How to add animation. How to add games that I love here. Though I can always link them here. Hahahaha.
Lifelong process indeed. And this is just about blogging. There are so many other things I would love to learn more of. But that's another topic altogether. :P

This is a tribute......
to the first ever person who penned her thoughts on my silly blog. Thank you very much Miss (or more apt, Mrs mum to be) Opsiedaisy (no real name because i have not gotten any permission to use real name here and frankly i like the mysterious aura of it). Thank you for showing me the first taste of blog and for finally nudging me into making one of my own. :D
and kampua too for also nudging me towards the realization of this blog.

Trial and error rocks!!
Yeah, I decided to not read up on anything and just grope in the dark. Hahaha. Kinda appropriate since my blog space is black and all. So, I changed the template, and tinker around with the colours, and tinker around with the layout and stuff. I think I like the one I finally settled on.
So many things to learn, so lazy to read up about them
Yes, this is still about blogging. I have so much to learn about blogging. I know I need to read up on it. Why can't we absorb info like Nobita did in one Doraemon episode where he put a bread on a page and then eat it and he will remember all the info on that page. Hahaha...

Odd number of posts per day
I was on the verge of signing off when suddenly I realize that I have made 4 posts so far today. Just as suddenly, I decided that I want odd number of posts per day. So it will be either 1, 3, 5, 7 or 9 though I doubt I could write 9 posts per day. One per day might prove to be difficult in two months time. Hehehe.
The first is always the best, the hardest, the one you will most probably regret....
As with many my writing ventures, I have so many ideas now that I can't remember half of them. I wanted to be clever but I am really not that clever. I wanted to be witty but humour is different for everybody. I wanted to be cool but seriously who is cool on the net? We are merely thoughts without a face and even if we post pictures of ourselves (which I don't think I ever will because of major low self esteem issues, hahaha) we are not really who we are on this virtual pages. We are bolder because we are not directly interacting with other people. We simply say what we want and think about the consequences later. Like kids really and you know what they say.....kids say the darnest things. ^_^
I am predicting that I will write a flurry of posts these first few weeks. Things that are silly, things that are semi personal, things that I think about when I daydream, things that matter to me, things that makes me smile, things that are plain stupid, things that might offend other people (sorry in advance), things that make me mad, things that interests me......basically everything under the sun and the moon and hence the title of my blog. Do not expect mature posts all the time and I will not expect people to even read my posts. Just my ramblings.
On with the show.
