hello public

the main reason why i started blogging was not to be the next xiaxue or bryanboy. i wont be debating on my blog on whether ZA or Loreal makes better mascaras. i would though however love to get a nose job done by singapore's best plastic surgeon sponsored by a tv program.

instead i started a blog because i felt that it was a good medium for me to write down my thoughts and details of my life. it was like a diary. putting my thoughts pen to paper was just so tiring. so what better way but to type it down. i thought to myself that probably one day when i really decide to quite this world of blogging, which hopefully wouldnt be anytime soon, i could compile all of my almost 500 entries from year 2003 till now and print it out into a book.

The Autobiography of Ali Joe


and no, i wouldnt market it. i dont think it would have any sale value. unless of course i do a paris hilton and spark a public rash. where everyone simply itches to know everything about me. i would put my thesis on how i find paris hilton to be a marketing guru aside for another entry.



Heiress to Hilton Hotel empire
Actress
Model
Singer
Has a perfume line
Designer

and all these under the well known brand name:
PARIS HILTON








well, a young singaporean did manage to cause a spark of interest amongst the public, especially all the pubescent boys. she propelled herself, unwantingly that is, into the public's eye, the same way miss hilton started out. nicely putting it, as an aspiring actress.

this student generated such a huge public interest that searches for her on yahoo in a day would have probably have exceeded what patricia mok would have gotten over her entire career at mediacorp.

but unfortunately for tammy, she didnt use her instant popularity to her advantage. she could have sold a few magazine covers, created merchandise or even be a real mediacorp actress. instead she chose to dissapear and hope the public forgets all about the incident. but like the infamous hello kitty incident, soon, the interest faded. probably becoming a case study few years down the road.

ohmygoodness.

see how easily it is for me to get sidetrack. tsk tsk.

anyways,

as i was saying, the opportunity of being able to read about my past, lets say in 10yrs time, would be a real sweet one. everything that we have experienced in the past is what that shapes us into who we are now.

from the past we learn how to live the present.
in the present, we learn how to plan for the future.
and in the future, we look back and laugh.



so if you're like wondering what the hell was the point of this entire post, simple.


i blog for me.
