Second Anniversary of Full-time Blogging

Filed in: Life Log — September 11th, 2007

2nd anniversary of full-time bloggingThis is my 2nd anniversary of full-time blogging blog post series which I share with you about the insights of a Malaysian full-time blogger:

Yesterday, 9 September 2007, marked my second year of full-time blogging since 2005. Oh yes, I am still surviving! My life has not much changes since my 1st year of full-time blogging. Instead of blogging, let’s talk about something personal.

I got a little tummy. I am 180cm tall and weight 86KG. A little overweight. 80KG should be ideal. I am looking for a strong reason to push me. “Why should I lose weight, as long as I am healthy?”

I am still single and looking for another half to complete my life. Two of my ex-girlfriends already married this year. *gosh* I have forgot how many years I have been single since last break up. More and more friends are getting married soon. I wonder when is my turn? Where is “she”?

I have more money. Thanks for the increasing revenues, my bank books have very beautiful transactions records. Even the bank manager recognizes me, “This guy make money online!”. My monthly expenses is a little. I put the rest of money in bank and mutual funds. Soon, I will invest in stock market.

I have no car (yet). I could buy myself a car now but I haven’t done so. I still spend 70 cents to take public bus to town and walk in Kluang town from west to east. “Why buy a car? I don’t really need one.” is my answer to my friends when they asked. However, under their “pressure” and in order to find a girlfriend faster, I am planning to buy a car soon. Maybe a Honda City or Toyota Vios, Myvi also not bad.

I plan to buy a house. Instead of spending money on a car, I think house is a better investment. I am not going to buy a house in my hometown. Maybe buy one in Johor Bahru or KL/Selangor.

Frankly speaking, I did doubt about how long time I can survive by blogging. “Will it burst?” “What else can I do if I don’t blog?” “Will I back to 9am-5pm office?” But these questions do not stay in my mind for more than a minute. I dislike to have negative ideas in my brain. Just do whatever you think you should do now.

Full-time blogging is lonely. People around me still do not understand what is “blogging”. To them, I am a guy who…

  • does not need to work
  • stays online at home
  • earns a lot of money
  • very free

Yes, I have control over my own time and make more money than average, but I still have works to do! Yes, I am free to travel at anytime but I hardly find a partner to go with me. That’s sad.

I am looking for someone to share with me…

In order to balance my loneliness, I will read more books. Reading is a good way to put everything aside. I like to read stories of successful persons, learn about how they got around their most difficult time.

I don’t have big plans for future. Just focus on what I am doing now, do it step-by-step, and make necessary changes as it developes.

Last but not least, thank you for your continuous support. Please add a word or two in the comment for my 2nd year anniversary of full-time blogging. Thank you very much! *bow*

    Happy 2nd Anniversary! I had been reading your blog for the past one year, not daily but occasionally. You maintain average one/half blog per day and when I came back to your site, I can always catch up those topics. Sorry, I did not read from your very early posts.

    Your writing style is touchable and sincere. You tell the true with simple English. I believe you are the most respected blogger in Malaysia. I am thinking to become a blogger like you but truly have no time and not good in English writing.

    I am also making money online, full time for the past 5 years. Mine is little bit different, I provide stock data service free for Malaysia traders. I am doing web business plus my personal investment. I am doing online stock trading as well.

    When I am free, I read and explore more on internet business ideas. You may add more internet business as your sources of income. Take some time to build your own product/service, study CMS software as well as some Social Networking open source. I always compare your blog with http://www.johnchow.com who had really made a lot of money. I think you will close to him very soon.

    Nice work! You are not lonely, you are super!

    Hey just curious, how did you manage your taxes? Try Natural Cures for losing your tummy, eat those Vege, Fruits, or some alternative therapies like raw food therapies, or just simply EXERCISE!!

    Being a fulltime blogger for sure you will be craving a lot of snacks that is very unhealthy!
