and i stumbled upon...
when i find a blog of someone i know.

i am an absolute gossipmonger, if you haven't noticed.

so i simply adore it when i find blogs to read; the person writing it, of which, i can put a face to. because then, with my best imaginations and accurate vision, can picture the face behind the words saying it to me. haven't you ever felt that a blog can be so personal that you can almost see their lips moving to the rhythm of the words? i have.

and so, the story goes: i found a few blogs of my fellow English majors. i truly agree with zh of how there is a certain brashness in the way English majors talk or blog. that brashness is not a euphemism for vulgarities like the eff word or you-think-you-are-witty smug talking; there is perhaps, a sort of daring and realistic accost to the world, which 99% of the English majors would think, is against them.

yup, we get it. you hate the world and apparently, the world hates you. but English majors do make them sound more poetic and less hysterical. i wouldn't say most, but many of them (us) put it so tragically across that at times, simply reading their entries seems to be a rebellion against the cruelty of the world.

then again. the blogs by which i stumble across - many of whose perceptions and actions i don't necessarily approve of. but i truly appreciate how they make blogging such a sophisticated medium for some world-bashing and emo release.
