Welcome!

So I decided to post another blog.. I wanted to edit my first entry or at least, post another entry under the first entry, but I didnt' know how to? I figured blogger.com doesn't allow new entries?? Feeling disappointed that 1) perhaps there isn't an editing feature after a blog is posted 2) having to repost another blog, do I feel silly! 3) is there a spell checker here? ( you never know when one misspells a word, it's highly embarrassing)

Then I realized I can use this feature called dashboard (to modify my entry), by the time I figured that out, I've already posted this new one, grrr.

As I looked onto other colleagues and their blogs, I feel that my inital post is rather dull :( I have no pictures, no real substance, but a mere blog about blogs. How boring is that? Who wants to hear about it, except when taught by our professor, of course! :)

I thought to myself, maybe I should write something that is perhaps remotely interesting? What about novels we've read lately, does anyone keep a reading log? or what about books that we use to like reading, but wondered why we ever liked it (vice versa).

Recently read: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Most liked book that I can reread over and over again: The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

Favourite children's book: The Princess and the Pea by Hans Christain Andersen

I sometimes wonder to myself how many authors (who write children, young adult, adults books) are out there in the publishing world? How do they get their inspirations, and what makes a book or novel " a best seller" or "successful"? What about advice to future aspiring authors? Hmm.. that's something I can address in my next blog.

btw, I apologize for any confusion for posting blogs on the main course website :(
