Some thoughts about blogging

部落格是你为自己而写的。你想写些什么,不想写些什么,或者想用些什么语言,都可以--只要这是你想做的。
当然,如果你觉得你要为其他人而写,也可以。不过,不需要强求喔!自然地想,当时想要用什么语言表达出来,就用什么语言。我就是如此,于是你就看到我的Rojak部落格,目前三种语言都有,非常典型的马来西亚式。(迟点可能考虑写德文来自己爽,哈哈!)

you write who you are in the blog world, for yourself especially. This space is your space, like your house is your house, you can do whatever you like to do.
You can write anything you want to, not writing anything you don't want to, or use any language you feel comfortable with... as long as you feel like doing so.

Of coz, if you think of writing for someone to read due to your courtesy, you may do so too. Tapi, jangan paksa sendiri lar... Ikut suka hati kamu (kalau kamu suka saya pun boleh ikut saya..kakaka).

By that time , when you are feeling right at expressing something in that particular language, just let it be natural, write down what do you want to express, which you think can express the best!

If you see my blog, then you know what's called a typical Malaysian Rojak blog. Currently it holds 3 languages. (but i have my principle -- i don't like to mix language in one article if not necessary).
Later, perhaps i will add my German language, for 'shiok sendiri' ...hahaha

I suggest those who don't understand any language (maybe my German in future), go look up for online translation (plenty of them nowadays - it is just so easy to do it, since you're already online, no excuse), or study that language in order to understand it lor...
