Nothing Personal

This is my fourth blog.

Yes, my fourth; and unlike my first three, I intend on keeping this damn blog up and running. Before that, though, let me explain the untimely demise of my first three.

The first blog I had was on Tumblr- a very modest writing blog where I posted a story about a girl named Elise.   It's about time-travelling and different universes which somehow all connect to one Mary-Sue. Needless to say, after rereading my first chapter about her meeting her best friend and her soon-to-be boyfriend, I needed to scrap the stories of Elise. It would be a career suicide not to.

My second blog was a Posterous blog; a simple and plagiarized blog. I attempted to somewhat, mimic, the blog of my former classmate who shall remain unnamed. Needless to say, I was envious of her many readers; of how many people would go up and say: Wow. Your blog is amazing. So, I decided to follow her example and log into posterous... let's just say that after one post, I gave up.

Now, onto the interesting part. This will be about my third and supposedly final blog. It was doing quite well, thank you very much---over a hundred viewers; one hundred and counting. Sadly, some people weren't liking what I was posting in my blog (don't worry; after backreading, I started to hate what I was posting on my blog as well). One of my readers, a very close friend of mine, started posting very mean things about me on her personal blog and Twitter. In fact, she's one of the very reasons that I stopped going on Twitter. Although it is very tempting to rant about what she did to me, I will not. What she did was simply a reaction to my action. It's what you call the Ripple Effect.

This will be my fourth and hopefully, final blog. I won't be making this a very public blog (for fear of history repeating itself), but I'll give this link to whoever wants to read my rants, babbles and any other interesting ideas.
