Returning to blogging

I have decided to go back to blogging after a long hiatus. I don't know why I am doing so.
Here's a list of possible reasons
  1. better undertand how teenagers think. There's a ST article citing that half of teenagers blog, if I don't blog, how do I better understand how they think and how do I work with them. Does sounds so wanna be right?
  2. Help me collect my thoughts and note down my ideas.
  3. Help me in writing, drafting speeches and giving spiels
  4. Give me an excuse to spend more time online

Really, I think the main reason is to give me an excuse to write. I think it is a realisation on the importance of writing, especially that of communicating ideas. Of course, I don't expect that anyone would be reading my blog.... but really I use writing to help me reflect on the world around me. I write because I don't want time to just pass me by. Writing forces us to observe, to be aware and ultimately to appreciate the people, places, ideas around us.

Okay, so here's a start...
