the occasional prattle

Why do I blog?

So my friend and I had a talk about blogging today. He told me that he blogged because he had the occasional urge to write something less formal than a newspaper article but more lengthy than a Facebook post or a tweet.

And I realised that I have that occasional urge too. I'm not too keen on crafting great articles on a weekly basis. But I do want to write something sometimes. I want to engage in occasional prattle about things happening around the world.

Not supremely sophisticated, in-depth, fact-filled discussions.

Just slightly intellectual, kind-of-deep, sometimes-supported-by-facts talks.

And I really do not want to watch out for to-be verbs and make sure I choose the absolutely definitely perfect noun, the one-million-dollar verb, the total-snipage adjective every time I feel the urge to write.

So here's my try at blogging. Let's hope I don't suck.
