First Impression About Blog

Being a border boy was a bit isolated from some parts of not only my own society but also the world I was dwelling in because I didn’t have much access to the world technologies which every young child did. Most of the time I heard someone said about blog, HTML, and something of that ilk, I felt thoughtless for I didn’t know what those things were. In my surrounding environment, I was able to aware of only what was shown on TV and written on newspaper because the lack of Internet and computer skills was still widespread in the milieu I settled.

After graduating from grade 12, I just knew something such as Facebook, Twitter and so forth. Although I am blogging now, I don’t know many functions about blogs for I am just a very new fledgling blogger. Blogging, for me, is something awesome which I can express my feeling and opinions, and I can share them to many outsiders. I know how to create blog from a prominent Cambodian blogger Keo Kounila when she was interviewed on radio. Having listened to her being interviewed, I felt very interested and highly motivated to blog because blogging is a tool to have my voices heard both regionally and internationally.

My blog consists of a wide range of articles: politics, economy, health, daily life, and many others, most of which are my own opinions because, as you can see from my blog, I have my own quote “nothing just feel”. I blog what I feel, but somehow this feeling comes from my critical thinking. I don’t deem my thoughts to be logic or rational; however, they are what I can come up with and what I want to contribute to some existing problems which are still deep-rooted in my beloved country – Cambodia.

Writing is my favorite activity to do when I have free time. I love reading, and that’s why I love writing. When I read, my critical thinking starts working. Ideas and knowledge obtained from my reading will be used to combine and innovate into new idea or knowledge because, after learning from Lecturer Sombo Manara, I have a habit of sharing and contributing. Authors have committed and tried their best to write articles and books to leave them to the next generation, so I think, on behalf of a person wishing to see my beloved motherland prosperous and glorious, I have to contribute as much as I can. Although my contribution is not in the form of money, cashes, or other tangible assets, I believe, at least, my idea and opinions contribution is helpful. “If you have less, contribute less. If you have much, contribute accordingly.” This is what I keep in my mind.

In the end, I am committed to blog unconditionally and forever no matter in what situation and circumstances I am. Although I can’t publish quite often, I believe this blog will some days have many visitors. Last but not least, as I mention above, I am just a fledgling guy in blogging, so mistake is inevitable. I hope to get more constructive feedbacks from various visitors wishing to see me be a good and eminent blogger.
