10 Reasons Why I Should Not Have a Blog:

1. There is absolutely nothing bloggable about my life right now. Since I don’t want to fill my blog with, um, wake up late, sleep through my review class, watch deal or no deal and sleep late, I will probably blog about other people’s lives, otherwise known as chismis. 

2. I tend to babble about things nobody cares about, like Keihl’s lip balm. And flip flops. Really, I can actually devote a whole blog to flip flops. I can just see my tropa rolling their eyes and going, “nyeta ka Camille!”

3. I’m obsessed about grammar, which doesn’t necessarily mean I’m good at it. But the thought of the rest of the world scrutinizing, criticizing my grammar just drives me nuts.

4. Blogging will only foster my self-absorption.

5. In a desperate attempt to put some sense into my blogs, I will probably write about the uber gasgas topic of the nursing board exams. And of course, the ubiquitous issue of retake/ no retake. Being a staunch ally of UST, I will probably launch a million violent reactions with what I will write, resulting in, sob, fewer friendsters.

6. At the risk of sounding like a complete fcuking idiot, it will probably take me forever to learn how to blog. I’m that technologically challenged. Hey, I just learned how to change my friendster wallpaper.

7.  I’m very addict-prone. And I have a list to prove it–flipflops, ex-boyfriends, videoke, Kiehl’s, Nick Hornby, Boy Chili Cheese, yosi, Rockstar Supernova…The last thing I want to do is to update my blog three times a day and spend the rest of the day obsessing about what to blog about next.

8. Blogging might actually be therapeutic. It might bring back to the conscious level all the unwanted/ painful/ forgettable memories I worked so hard to suppress/repress into the unconscious level, which I am so not ready for. I am perfectly comfortable being slightly psychologically unstable, which brings me to my next reason…

9. Freudian slips. I always do when I write.

10. It might take too much of my precious time that should be spent sleeping, staring into space, pretending to study at Starbucks, drinking myself into a stupor, watching trash TV,  and waiting for something remotely meaningful to happen to my life.

1 Reason Why I Should Have A Blog:

1. It is the only thing I can think of that will prevent my brain from going into complete atrophy. I’m in dire need of some mental masturbation! So just bear with me, you got no choice anyway. At least let me give it a shot. Here goes….
