This is quite a different topic to what I ususally blog about but as I sit here unable to sleep, slowly reading my way through countless blogs with House playing in the background. I came across a particular episode that caught my attention. Trying to keep it brief as to not spoil it for people that have yet to see it... During this episode it talks about a girl who has the tendency to blog about every detail in her life. Even as she lies pre-surgery she blogs to ask her followers whether she should proceed with surgery or not. It is clear to see that blogging so much has had a huge impact on her life and relationships.
As a frequent blogger (kinda) or blog reader it made me think, How much is too much? Is sharing every detail of your life to people you don't know around the world a good idea?
Coming from a Chinese/Asian background my family prefer a life of privacy. Not saying we're famous or anything but where we're from, everyone knows everyone and everything... Sort of annoying really. Therefore I am particularly cautious as to what I share online. My family are still unaware of this site and only a selected few of my friends know.
I was curious as to what you guys thought of the matter. How much is too much? What is the limit as to what you'd share to what is essentially strangers online. And are your family/friends supportive of your blogging? Has blogging made an impact on your life, in a positive or negative way (if any). Thanks =3
Peace and love, Christina x

ahh, i really wanna see that ep of house now! I can totally relate, i'm always careful with what I post making sure its not too much about my life yet still i love my blog bein' personal lol...its hard!
ReplyDeleteI just don't want to get stalkers haha, main fear TBH xo
This was interesting! She blogged even before her surgery? I guess that's not too bad. I enjoy reading blogs that give an insight to a persons life, it's as if those few minutes you spend reading, you feel sucked in to their world. However, I also, like you, prefer to keep my blog more reserved, I haven't told my family and only selected friends know about my blog too. Plus i never post pics of my family or friends. I guess I take blogging as just my little space away from my daily life :)
ReplyDelete@Tanda pandaa. It was season 6 episode 8 I think >_< I agree with wanting to make my blog personal.. But not TOO pesonal xD
ReplyDelete@PinkOrchids, Yeah she blogged about every little aspect of her life, even her arguments with her boyfriend and why. Causing arguments between her and her bf.. IDK I kinda think thats a little TOO much...as much as its nice to get to know readers at a closer level..
Hey tangyyyy :) can't sleep so I was reading blogs nd came across urs lol. I dnt really like to blog much about my personal life unless it's happy things I actually want to share... But generally I like to blog about my passion in art, design, photography. Things that really inspire me. A blog kind of helps motivate me and keep me going in my many passions :)
