Blog Surfing...

Not quite sure if there is such a term, but since there is channel surfing - switching from channel to channel on the TV - I guess it should be kinda appropriate to use blog surfing if I jump from blog to blog. When you are wide awake in the middle of the night with nothing better to do, it's not quite an anomaly to resort in such an act.

Just a while back, I visited Huilan's, Shermeen's, Yingxian's, Nana's, Shiqi's, Panying's and Sherilyn's blogs. Why this assortment of characters, you may ask? Well... I must say it's pretty random when you are bored. Actually, I have always been following Shiqi's and Panying's. It's the others that may be baffling to some people I presume.

Before anyone come asking "Avan, you like her, her, her and her ah?", I think it's best I clarify myself. While checking out SQ's blog, I saw Huilan and Yingxian on her links and I thought these 2 names sound familiar. So out of curiosity, I just clicked on their names lor. One is Shiping's gf and the other is my former DBA12 classmate. It's no wonder I find their names so familiar la... As for Nana, I have always found her kinda exotic so it's only natural that I follow her blog from time to time rite. Shermeen ah... Erm... No particular reason really. Maybe I haven't gotten the chance to really talk to her lately so just wanna find out how she's doing. In truth, I think I found out more bout her from her blog than the whole of our 09 days. Isn't it a shame! Anyway, I dun think it's ever too late to know a person rite. Lastly, it's Sherilyn. I am not afraid to admit that I find her rather talented. It's more of admiration than infatuation, purely platonic. I won't tolerate any gossips or teasings on this context k. LOL!!!! We all know she's very sporty. If I'm not mistaken, she plays table tennis and Muay Thai!!! Table tennis I can understand but Mauy Thai for a girl....... That's way insane!!! I really have to give it to her for this. Surprise surprise!!! Having praised her so much, the thing bout her that impresses me the most is her command of English. So yup, I am quite interested in reading blogs from those with good command of English.

I dunno why pple keep saying my English is good. Frankly speaking, I feel my command of English is pretty mediocre. When compared to SHerilyn, I pale in comparison. And not only her, I have so many friends that are way better than me. According to my own standards, I still regard myself as somewhat of a cheeeena pork. Dun get me wrong here. I dun discriminate against chinese speaking pple k. I just wanna be more bilingual if not multilingual.

Pple say "pictures paint a thousand words" which I totally agree. Judging by the number of pictures uploaded onto blogs nowadays, I am confident to say many share the same sentiments. In spite of that, pictures are still something complementary. I firmly believe words are still the primary channel of delivering messages. This probably explains the chronic lack of pictures in my blog. Hahahaha!!!!!!!!!!

To me, language is a beautiful thing just like soccer. If you are very proficient in a particular language, you can really make wonders with words. As of now, I have to say I am still very far from that level of articulation. Hai~ In fact, I am kinda retrograding. To think I am gonna give a china girl tuition on English. Dun have the slightest bit of idea how it's gonna work out. Let's just hope she can improve my Chinese and I can return the favour in the opposite direction...
