Why Blog?
Firslty, welcome to Bnoseworld.... my world that is! If you're wondering... you say it like Bee-nose-world.
I don't have any nicknames :( I've always been the person who makes them up for others.
But a dude I used to work with in the UK used to call me "Beeno" and I liked that, so I thought I'd use it now. He was actaully quite a funny guy, its a pity he got the sack. But he did head butt a collegue at the the work christmas function so theres not much the boss could do.
Anyway I have known about the Bloggers scene for quite some time now. But I've always thought it too self indulgent to get involved. It's like saying.... look at me, look at me. But then in truth, I'm always acting that way anyway, my 2 years of writing the NNN is a testament to that. So I figured it was time to get honest with myself and conform a little to the norm.
It's like the MP3 player argument. I've always been an adament opponent of the Ipod. Not liking how they make you play by their rules, or at least make it uncomfortable if you don't. Pushing the "I-tunes" music program on you and not acting as a generic viewable hard drive when you plug it into PC. As a result I've always been in favour of other brands like Iriver, Phillips or Digital Cube (which I have at the moment). But after using my friends Ipod's on many occasions, I have to admit they're damn well designed and in many aspects a better product than their rivals. So it's really only my stubborness and need to be different for holding out against the Ipod.... the same goes for the Blog. I have always wanted to design my own website with a running "Blog" if you will. And I feel by using someone elses model I am just cheating, taking the easy way out.... but in the end I have realised there is no point 'reinventing the wheel'.
At the moment I am trying to write my first and probably last ever novel. You know how they say "Everyone has a novel in them". Well getting mine out is like trying to pass gall stones, and it's defintely taking a toll. So this Blog will be my personal outlet venting all the highs and lows of my life while writing this novel.
