I'm so not getting the hang of this blogging thing

Every now and then, I pop into a couple of friend's blogs, just to see what's up in their life. Most average people seem to post at least once a week.

Mine is more like once every six months!

How on earth do people sustain their blogs?? Someone, please share your secret with me!! I mean, I always thought blogs were a platform to share news and thoughts, whether good or bad. But my moods often pass quickly, and more often than not, when I'm in a mood and feeling strongly about something, the PCs not turned on and the lappie's nowhere near. Otherwise, I'm plain in the middle of doing something else, eg. work, minding the cats, interacting with someone etc. So where got time to blog about it straightaway??!! And then after awhile, the mood passes and things return to status quo. Cannot think of what to blog about already.

Do regular bloggers go around with pencil and notepad,jotting down things they wanna blog about for later on?

And I'm still not used to slotting in photos, links, files ...so my blogs end up looking like this - just words, and nothing else.

Anyway, I'm back at Loopy Lapin and now my dear hub wants to start a joint blog, chronicling our path towards parenthood. Eh???? Got time to sustain it or not?? :P

So did the course help?

Sometime last year, I attended a blogging and social media course. Did it help?

Well, I did learn lotsa new stuff, like how to insert videos, audio files etc. Sadly, I've already forgotten half of what I learnt.

But the really strong message that I DO remember is this: that the power of blogging and social media is not to be underestimated. So, I should really put more effort into getting Loopy Lapin up and running! So what if only 3 pple end up reading it a day (and I'm one of them)?

The fact is, it's also a great outlet for relieving all the pent-up frustration which our society forces u to keep inside. Don't bring your troubles to work. No time at home to throw tantrums and voice furstrations. So ... the land of the virtual can now be the land of the vacuum ... for sucking up all that negative energy, so that I can be ready to face the real world once again.

I suppose this is alot easier than getting out the old diary and penning thoughts down. If I want to, I can insert photos, links etc to get the point across.

My question is, how do I change this font?? It's horrible!

As you can see, I still have some way to go as far as mastering the basics is concerned :)

The year's coming to an end and what better time to FINALLY get started on my own blog, eh??

OK, I don't really know how this works but let's try. I've chosen the basic template, now, it's all down to typing, typing, typing ...

What horrible fonts, and what horrible templates to choose from! Let me find out more :)
