WHY ARE WE WRITING A BLOG?

Hmm... malam tadi saya dan sons went into bed early. My husband as always, ada business appointment di Shah Alam. I did not even realize when he was back. About 4 in the morning, Didik cried for susu. Saw my husband sedang lena. 4 pagi baru tersedar suami dah balik... hmm...

Kemudiannya saya sudah tidak boleh tidur semula. Since TV memang terpasang (my husband and sons memang tak boleh tidur tanpa TV. Dulu Sofi walaupun dah tidur, dia akan terbangun kalau saya off TV). Padahal cahaya TV tu tak elok untuk kesihatan sangat...

Kalau ikut sains kesihatan, antara tips untuk membolehkan kita mendapatkan tidur yang berkualiti - elakkan dari bunyi yang bising, ruang tidur yang dark and cool..., turn off televisyen!

Hah, depa ni tak nak percaya...

Jangan nak kata my husband and kids, many people actually fall asleep with their TV on in the bedroom. Tapi yang peliknya, even people said the TV is actually a very engaging medium that tends to keep us up, but my family sleep tight with it.

TV stimulates minda kita yang sepatutnya berehat dalam tidur. And the lights are also noot good for health. I used to read an article tapi cari-cari tak jumpa dalam google, cahaya TV yang terbuka sewaktu kita tidur sebenarnya akan menyebabkan badan kita keletihan bila bangun keesokan paginya.


OK, back to the original story...

The HOUSE
was on the screen. So, disebabkan mata tak boleh tidur lagi, saya pun tengoklah cerita tu. Sebenarnya saya jarang tengok HOUSE because I don't quite like Dr House tu... sorry, but I have no explanation for that. I just don't like...

I believe itu episod ulangan. It was about a fanatic blogger yang jatuh sakit, and macam selalu the House team was trying to diagnose the symptom of the disease. First diagnose, they thought the blogger had heart problem. Nak tukar samada dengan injap khinzir atau injap plastic. As to choose that pun the lady must write in her blog, as to find feedback from her reader sampai husband dia marah.

Husband dia kata, lebih kurang lah ye... saya terjemahkan ke dalam bahasa kita sikit-sikit,
"Please, you are indeed interesting for people to read. But this is our life, your life. Takkan semuanya you nak bergantung dengan pendapat readers you? Now you choose, if you opt for writing the blog about this, then I won't be here anymore!"

Isk! Biar betul... tapi memanglah, the patient tu obsess sangat dengan blog, can turn crazy kalau tak tulis blog dia.

Then it came into my mind!
What is blog?
What is the benefit of blog?
Why are we writing blog?
And why am I writing this blog!?

What is blog?
Tanpa spesific knowledge, I would say blog adalah satu lagi bentuk teknologi komputer yang membolehkan our idea, opinions and other feelings being told to many people. Definitely for some reasons, kalau business of course untuk promosikan their service or products untuk generate hasil, for some academicians mungkin untuk share and deliver ilmu, and others...?

Honestly for me, blog is a modern kind of diary. But blog could not defeat conventional diary's ability to be more confidential...

I found out the specific details from http://www.betterbusinessblogging.com. Okay, what I think about what is blog is more or less hit the statement. Online diaries! kan betul! They are Personal and Business Blogs, correct... then it will explain the question in my mind on why we write a blog?

The benefits? Self-explanatory...
As for me, blog is another medium for me to share. Again it is about SHARING. The same purpose when I insist to proceed with my Seandainya...

Ya, I am to share with people who has willingness to share with me too. And I don't think blog will make me crazy and fanatic for it. My husband started this blog for me sometime last year, but I had no opportunities to activate it due to various limitations in life and jobs especially.

And now, when Allah grants me some free-time, I utilize it for the good. My husband, semalam dia tanya, "Awak tak ada kerja ke kat office tu asyik blogging je?"

Saya belum ada workstation yang tetap sekarang ini, masih dipinjamkan. I heard some rumours that I may be assigned to lead a new portfolio, but better don't. I am new, and I need to learn the culture before leading the new task in the new portfolio. But I think it will not be realized in the very short time. Most probably I will have to be a stand-in person in specific and existing department. Don't bother about that...

My former boss used to say, "Ros, you are good. Throw you anyway, you will definitely survive!" So, tak kisahlah disuruh buat apa dan di mana, asal jangan suruh saya pergi luar dari negeri Selangor ni, sudah... Yeah, Malaysia Boleh kan... dan Selangor, dihatiku...

And now... bukan saya tak kerja pun. All assignments given to me, I do it with commitment. I handed over the completed task earlier than expected time pun... tadi pun kerja dah siap (sambil buat kerja sambil edit post - selang-selikan keboringan), my principle in working, do your work in the efficient and effective timeframe...

So, within the free times, rather than borak-borak kosong dengan office mates ni, baiklah saya isikan satu dua post dalam ni. Kind of teaching and sharing untuk bangsa juga kan... heh heh... sebaran ilmu dan maklumat itu kan lebih baik dari perkara dan perkataan lagha...?

(Lagha, seperti yang kita semua tahu adalah merupakan suatu perkara, perbuatan atau perkataan yang tidak ada manfaat atau faedah, sia-sia, melalaikan)

After this (tak tahu bila), when I have my own work station and portfolio to lead, definitely I will have lesser and lesser and silap-silap tak ada masa pula nak buat sharing... So jangan pelik dengan saya, once I started to write, I will keep writing in the times I have.. kalau tak ada masa, tak ada lah dapat saya nak berkongsi begini...
