Computer Geek and a Blogaholic
Tuesday, May 25, 2004
Yes, that's what I am. Isn't it obvious from how I was able to customize this online journal all in one day? Sshhh! Don't tell anyone but I was sorta putting off work for my blog. And when guilt got the better of me, I compromised by working in between blogging (mind you, it's the other way around... not blogging in between working).

When I transferred to Blogspot, the only thing I knew was to post an entry. I didn't know jack about uploading pictures or putting links or making my blog even more interesting. I envied the other bloggers whose journals were more interesting because of the tidbits that reflected more of their personality.

It's all in the template. When I clicked the "edit template" button, I was greeted by all sorts of letters, numbers and symbols forming some gibberish language. How I'm going to spice up my blog, I do not know. But thanks to the HELP button and some trial and error, I did it. As my friend said while we were chatting, comparing blog how- tos, on YM, "Naks! Computer geek ka na (You're a computer geek now)." To which I replied, "Kunyari lang naiintindihan ko siya (I just pretend I understand it)."

But uh, I guess, trying to figure my way around some strange gibberish computer language makes me a geek... that, or I'm just really resourceful. I prefer the latter. :p

When my boyfriend arrived, I was surprised that he was at my door already. Could that much time have passed since he SMS-ed me that he's on his way home already from work? I was just so immersed in this blog makeover that time flew so fast, I didn't even notice! But he arrived in the nick of time. I just completed the last touch up and proudly presented my blog! As if that wasn't enough, I had to shoo him for awhile to type this! I let him use the other computer in the office and told him to go check his mail! I'm so bad! Nope, bad isn't the fact I'm shooing him away. Bad is the fact that I'm blogging right now instead of spending time with him! That's worse! I guess I've reached that point of no return. I'm a blogaholic.

I have joined the ranks of my brave friends who have confessed that blogging is all they want to do. Blogging has lowered their productivity level at the office. Blogging has made them wish their were more hours in a day exclusively alloted just for blogging. Blog, blog, blog, blah...

Until I find a cure for my addiction, I'll just keep on having my blogging fix. But For now, I'm gonna log off and go back to my boyfriend and give him my undivided attention.

A, here I come...
