This is not an original idea. Actually, I just saw the post of a fellow blogger and a loyal buddy to one of my blogs (actually the very first one and now is too old that is why it has PR3). He is actually taking notes of all his "firsts" in blogging such as first post, first comment, first layout, first links, and all other firsts that can happen to a blogger.


Ciao! What are your very "firsts"?
This fact that I have read a post on a fellow blogger's "firsts" made me thin, "how about my firsts?" I remeber without knowing a lot of things. I mean
, if one is to be a blogger, and be aware of and NOT ignorant of at least the basic jargons in blogging, it takes quite some time. In fact, even until now, I still have to learn many things.

I am not a person who remembers everything though. Although if I trace it back, I could always get the first posts, the first comment and all the possible firsts but what matters to me is the learning I gained after having those "firsts"!

I never knew commenting existed...
I never knew Internet could be that "unreliable" for anyone can write anything...
I never knew what PR was...
I never knew I could make more than one blog and so when I discovered, I made an additional three.
I never knew what rss means or any other feed...
I never knew one could earn by blogging...
I never knew friends can be gained in blogging...
I never knew blogging could be so addictive and enjoying and time consuming process...
I never knew.. I knew NOT!

Honestly, the list is much longer than that. Now looking back, it was around ten months ago when I started really blogging. The first is of course the blog I mentioned above with a political and geographical theme. The rests? One can only imagine. This blog is only one among the around 20 blogs i built, deleted, built, deleted. But now, I am seriously blogging on three blogs, all supported by the free hosted blogger platform.

It is fun to look back into and see how and what were those stupidities and misconceptions. Now that I am back to work in three days time after a yar of enjoyable no working life, I hope my blogs would not be left behing. I also hope my 3-hour daily job would not be so tiring. I am also happy with the fact that I found this job within 6 8 weeks of stsy in this new place and although it is roghly 15 hours a week, it pays generously to a net of at least $1,400. I have to see then, after this coming week if it is still very convenient to blog. But I think the work is just too light with the number of hours, unless I get another job in my free time for more bucks of course and for the next vacation and for the future and for a lot of things.

And how about your firsts? I bet you are having some thoughts about them too. Your very first blog, what you did, how did you learn and all those stuffs. I would love to hear from your side too.
