I have stumbled upon my daily blog that i made from 2011 which was 5 years ago.
I could not remember the slightest detail that i have written on my blog, but it was definitely me typing it.
I was going through my Industrial Attachment Program (IAP) at the time of the discovery, feeling extremely bored due to lack of tasks and objectives, i decided to find out what boring people do on the internet, fortunate enough i was looking through wikihow's website on "how to kill time" and i stumbled upon an action "write a blog". Then it hit me, i quickly searched my main blog that i remembered writing 5 years ago.
Fortunately, it wasn't a challenge searching for my blog as i was using the same email 5 years ago and present today. My eyes wide opened, it was the very same blog with the very same background picture and the very same blue text with my very old profile picture. I was smiling with joy, excited to see what i have written 5 years ago about my personal lives that i have shared across the web that i doubt anyone has ever seen nor read.
I've had only 1 unfinished blog post which was an adventure to fly a kite with a couple of friends at the Marina Barrage. I've stopped at the sentence where i was describing who i was going with and it ends there, it was a rather sad but truthful experience that i didn't even got to finish it. That story was far too long ago for me to remember and finish it now, its 2016 but I've had posted at least 22 posts during the time of 2nd February to the 28th of March. The interest for blogging didn't really last for so long, but it was a good month for me to reflect on my adventures and stories of my personal life, i do enjoy typing out my life through an LCD screen and posting it on the web for everyone or anyone to read but sometimes i think that the reason i write blogs was from pure depression, however most of my stories are often stupid and uneccassary but funny because of my bad english and grammar.
I have been "Taking a trip down memory lane" recently 2 months ago, i discovered that my Facebook had some old photos and videos that I've created throughout my youth days and i have to say that even though those years were ridiculously stupid which made me cringed, i do feel that every time i took a "trip down memory lane" i felt very happy, so happy that i saved the old photos of not just myself but the adventures I've had with my friends and family and send it to them. Those are my memories and I never want to delete them from my life no matter how embarrassing it is if people see it, especially this blog, its like sending a message from the me to me reminding myself how important your memories are, good or bad.
