OK, I’m bored and restless. And too un-motivated to do anything productive.
These days, there are literally dozens of new Malaysian blogs appearing everyday. I think the turning point was during the PPS 2nd anniversary, and all the publicity in the papers, and then the floodgates open. Browsing through our local blog portals, i can see lots of new faces (well, not their faces, literally), its a little difficult to sift through so many. But more on the noob pingers later.
Right. My blog turned one just a few days before the Chinese New Year, but there was no specific post on it. I’m kinda reminded of some of the old school bloggers that were around when i started this thing about a year ago. Let me rack my memory a little bit to list down some that i can remember:
J’ded by Venus – slowed down a bit since going to uni. Reading her in recent months always give me this feeling that she’s not really saying what’s on her mind, you know the feeling? But anyway. She’s one blogger that likes to post without titles.
the Mudpond – stopped since November last year. No idea why.
jasonmumbles – food, food, food… mmm… still around.
TV Smith – His post is the one that finally convinced me to start my own (Blogging For Dungus) but he’s not posting as often as he used to. But i really love his dark humour. Remember the Hari Raya kongsi gelap post? or the driving test one…?
5xmom – oh, still there. Heck, even bigger and more often than before! Now with kick ass template some more!!
the good doctor – of course he’s still blogging. there’ll be a small demonstration outside the GH if he’s stopping…
frozenlily – munkit‘s prolly on a beach somewhere sipping diet coke and watching bikini babes. Even his old archives isn’t available.
viewtru – the mystery man shows no signs of slowing down, some more guest-starring in Mini blog. A lot of burning questions surround this guy – is he really a millionaire recluse? What does he look like? When is the 3-in-1 Nescafe tarik Kungfu Girl going to have a sequel?
buangmasa – also stopped. Explanation at the site.
rojaks – hah, bigger and better now. Some more got big PR5 button on his site…! So, if you’re looking for some serious theological discussion and socio-economic commentary, this is the place… 🙂
belacans – another victim of busy work. Or so it seems… hmmm… Oi, post lah something, brader!
speaking of mini – yep, after a few template changes, she’s still blogging. I like her minimalist template, the current one.
mrkiasu – tutup kedai long time oredi.
A few more vets still in service that i can recall – reta, fashionasia, nsds3, sashi, eyeris, and all those good folks on the blogroll, umm, sorry if I forget to mention anyone’s name. Memory a bit rusty. And of course the famous people like kenny, suanie, lainie and the rest.
Right, enough about the veterans.
I need new, funny blogs to read. If you have one, or know one, let me know. Yep, just bring it on. More the merrier.
