I started blogging at the age of 20 in one the most popular blogging sites that time—Livejournal. I kept it for about two years then I deleted it. Since then, I start creating one blog after another and deleting each one as I leave them.

I continued blogging when I came to China but not a single blog lasted for a year because every now and then China would block blogging sites so the effect was I keep creating accounts in whatever available blogging site there is. I have been a member of different blogging sites like Blogger, Livejournal, WordPress, Xanga, Bravejournal, GreatestJournal, and etc. I think I have two separate accounts here in WordPress. I remember when I created the first account, WordPress got blocked. Then when the GFWC unblocked WordPress, I created this one… and it is still alive until now because I already learned how to use proxy sites and freegate softwares.

I am not currently in China now but my guess is that WP.com is still blocked.

I have started self hosted blogs too. In fact, at some point I thought of importing “My Take on Things’” archive to “My Pink Notes”. I even transferred some entries already. But I realized that it would be such a waste to leave this blog. I have already exerted time and effort in it so it is difficult for me to just shun it away. I really would like to keep this blog.
