New Home ~a continuation~

Posted in: ~Sunday Posts | 1st post | 2008 posts | About Blogging | blog anniversary | Cringy Teenage Years

Back to blogging!

Continuing my blog from "LiFe In SaBaH" (which is closed to public), this new blog was created because I'm moving to a new phase of life. In my opinion, having "Life In Sabah" as a blog title seems to give the impression that I'll always be in Sabah (whereas I actually do have wishes & dreams to study abroad)

I chose "Fighting for Life" as the title and use "fight-oh" in the blogspot url to remind me I still have to fight hard to reach my ambitions. Yankumi always say "Fight-Oh" (faito..Oh!) in Gokusen which somewhat motivates me whenever I watch Gokusen.

I like this template. I got it from here. Got some problems at the beginning with the images but I managed to get it right in the end. So far no problem... What I really like is the highlighted links (I've always want that but didn't have time to learn how).

Another new thing - Besides me blogging, I'll have the other-me blog too. Who's other-me you ask? I'm not crazy, but other-me is an attempt to expose the "evil" or "opposite" side of me. When I am thinking, I often look at the positive and negative sides of things that sometimes I end up imagining silly and stupid things in my head. It's like the small angel-devil appearing in cartoons that says,"Do it," & "No, don't do it."

The other-me can be seen in blue.

Quoting some words from my 1st blog post in LiFe In SaBaH...
Saturday, February 05, 2005
This is my first post...
why I decided to create my own blog site---to throw in all my thoughts which nobody wants to hear.

I still have that objective for this blog.
I really hate how people expect you to listen to what they say, but when I turn to them, they won't listen to whatever I say. I find it rude and often, I feel offended by these acts. But maybe I'm at fault too. I think I'm lack of communication skills (which I'm trying to improve on now)... But, they should learn to listen more than talk! That's why we have two ears and not two mouths. (A teacher in school said this during assembly)

Oh yeah, I also changed my display name to Ru.Ru. A close friend gave me that nickname last year.
Edit 2021-03-05: Just realised that this need an update. I've changed it to RuYanda since then.
