Blog Therapy

Blogs can be entertaining - really! For me, blogging and reading someone else's blog could even be therapeutic. I really enjoy Mr Brown and never fail to check it out every other day for updates and listen to his podcasts. As I did so yesterday, I chanced upon his coverage of XiaXue's Top Seven Most Disgusting Bloggers. And there he was again - Steven Lim. OMG! He really is something. You need to be "something" to do that to yourself and have an ego so huge. But it was really entertaining watching his home-made videos - you have to check them out for comic relief. I assure you will not be disappointed.

As I "kaypoh(ed)" other people's blogs, I chanced upon Cruz Teng, popular 933FM DJ. I must say I do enjoy his morning programme - from home to work, he and Weibin never fails to make me laugh (albeit alone) in the car :-). From his blog links, I found the blog of one of my favourite Taiwan comperes - Cai Kang Yong. Now for those of you intending to improve your Mandarin, this is the blog to check out. Kang Yong is witty, intelligent and very very good at what he does. The writing is immaculate and some even inspirational.

Blogs widen your world.
You realise there are people less fortunate than you.
You realise there are people who work so hard to overcome obstacles in their lives (especially illnesses).
You realise there are people who live life to the fullest, despite obstacles and troubles.
You realise there are couples who are truly in love AND married.
You realise there are people who are desperate for attention.
You realise you are not alone...

People laugh at bloggers and blogs. Well, you just don't know what you're missing. Try it some day. You'll see...
