Why this blog is mostly emo(This is turning into quite an essay, with constant edits to add even more information. Either i am just dying to defend myself from people who are telling me STOP being emo, or well, i got too much free time on my hands. Both are wrong. But ah wells. Read on if you want to know, or if you are lazy, dyslexic or just cant be bothered [which is almost like being lazy], then here is the gist: I can't help it.)As everyone would know, the entries here are mostly emo. Sometimes they contain random string of words put together in a sorrowful way to make something very simple sound like it means something very deep. Sometimes they are just asking for someone to console this poor soul, and give him a shoulder for him to cry on. Sometimes, they dont mean anything. But why? It comes to a simple logic, at least for my theory. The happy things that you often write about are for situations that happen in your life where you might need to mention one or two people, that would otherwise bring about unwanted questions about certain areas in your life which you do not want answering. Everyone would be wondering who that someone was, what did you do blah blah blah in the way in which humans are so gossipy. I should probably clarify happy entries abit more. Girls will post pictures of their outings with their group of girlfriends, and that is considered one happy entry. They might post a picture of them with a guy, either because he is your boyfriend, you are interested in him (in which case, he doesnt read your blog), or everyone knows he is gay (or you are gay for that matter, i dont think it really makes a difference). For guys, lesser of us blog anyways. And lesser percentage of us, when compared to the female population, like to take pictures. So we wont post pictures. And we cant namedrop anybody we know, cause for the reason in the above paragraph. So what do we do? We be emo. (Additional reasons to be emo is that hopefully, that pretty cute girl whom you always liked will somehow, somehow, sympathise with you, and you will score! [You know, just like in the movies that we have been shown all our lives.] Though in reality, the pretty cute girl wont admit it. Hell, she might not be talking to you in the first place. It's all in your head. Oh, and nobody likes crybabies anyways.) (Oh, and if it really does work to be emo, please do tell me. And tell me who the girl is too. I will write an even more emo entry to win her heart) Now, when you write emo entries. You want the world to symphatise with you, to maybe drop you a comment and go "oh, you poor thing." or "i know how that feels. I used to have that kind of experience. Chin up dude." that kind of thing. Yes, you can deny that you dont want people to comfort you. You are just lying to yourself. But the great irony here is that NOBODY REALLY CARES. Especially when you write too many emo entries. You put on emo entry, and your readers will be, oh here we go again, a roller coaster ride through this guy emotional chaos. It is sort of like the boy who cried wolf. In this case, it is the boy who was emo so much that nobody really gives a damn that he is emo. It has already been accepted that he is emoboy87. But this emoboy87 doesnt really give a damn. A few of my emo entries are just to well, rant. Though it is subjected to a lot of self censorship, which contradicts the purpose of ranting. So far, happy entries are sparse and few in between. Neutral entries are becoming more common, i hope. In this blog's case, emo means normal. Neutral means happy, and well, if there are ever any happy entries, that means i am either high on drugs, or somebody hacked into my account and sabotage the pure nature of this blog. So to be normal, i shall end on an emo note. Arsenal lost yet again. And i am a sad sad boy. Oh yes, and the long string of totally nonsense phrases that dont really mean anything like "The night grows tired as a lonely boy on a peripheral cloud of his thoughts began to perambulate through the emotional roads that lead to nowhere."
