Ten years ago today, I made my first blog post to this blog.
The first few years, it wasn't very consistent. After a burst of frequent posting during my trip to Europe in February, 2005, I missed almost an entire year in 2005-06 as I became absorbed by that difficult job in Long Beach / Newport Beach. My total number of posts for the first 3 years was something around 50.
Once I realized I was going to be changing careers and coming to Korea to teach English, however, I became more focused, and I've averaged at least a post a day for the last 7 years (since late 2007). My blog administration tool tells me I currently have 3841 posts - this includes a small number of posts that I've "backdated," - transcriptions from my pre-blog journaling.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with it. It's not always interesting, I'm sure - I'm not interested in being interesting. I don't want to become a "popular" blog or perform any kind of broader, journalistic function. This blog is nothing more than an exhibtionistic kind of journaling.
