I used to have a personal journal in my early teen years.

Way back then (I am in my 30s now), I would sit down and record the most important events of my life in the sheets of my diary.

Of course, those events were almost always about the girls I liked, or dated.

The diary was my friend. I could tell it anything I wanted. And it listened.

Then, I would read what I had written, to relive those experiences, or learn from made mistakes.

After about two years of writing it, I decided to stop doing it. I felt that by discharging all my "energy" telling my paper-made friend about what I should do in this or that situation, I had no energy left to deal with those situations in real life. As if by discharging my "plans", I then didn't have the strength to put them in action. I was like deflated. Oh well...

So I left the diary... for a while. I came back to it when my personal events were very important. I did that once in a while until my early 20s (big boy!). Of course, all those times, I wrote about things that had happened, never about the way I wanted things to happen or how I should act about things that might happen. I learned my lesson. And I didn't need such discharge either. I was not a teen anymore.

So what happened? Why am I writing a diary now?

Well, I've done it before, and why not do it again. But this one is special in a sense that is a communications device with cyber space. It is for my family and friends to see what I am doing but also for those who share my interests, I hope they find something useful in this diary on the web.

Sit down and enjoy the ride.
