Whos Reading It Has Been Brought To My
Who's reading? It has been brought to my attention lately that the audience of my blog is more diverse than I had imagined. When I first started my blog I wanted to keep an online journal about random things that I happen to be thinking about and stuff that happened to me. I wanted to have my blog so I can look back at it 10 or 20 years from now and say "haha billy you dumbass" or "yeah those were the good days." And now there are people who actually know me and read my blog, such as friends in Minnesota, friends from different parts of the country/world, my relatives, my parents, my relatives' friends, my parents' friends, and other random people who are doing research on the Zhou Dynasty. While it is good to know that your friends and family care about you and want to read up, this has lead to a change in my style of blogging. I can no longer name names, talk about the "really interesting" things or be mean. So basically it is not as fun as before. What should I do? The other day my aunt called me and told me not to write about my so-called "work ethics" because it could potentially jeopardize my job. Hmmm... that's a good point. But DAMN do I hate changing my style or attitude, I just don't like that. I'd rather face the wrath from my boss than to change my blog entries. Actually I think my boss would find it amusing the way I write about my days at work. I'm sure many of you who have your own blogs or the inferior xanga have had some kind of exposure to blog censorship. Should I write like the way I want and keep on posting pictures that may not show me in the best of light? Or should I "tone" it down and become a role model to online blogger-wannabes? Any comments?
