I can’t even make time to post my own birthday post on time, gah.

Warning: This is a very personal and tl;dr post.

I turned 20 today yesterday 2 days ago. Yeah, it kinda took that long to get this post up. orz

It’s been a long time since I’ve done a none-news post (not counting that recent cosplayer interview), so I might as well write a bit about my current, personal life.

I’ve recently graduated from Singapore Polytechnic; that is, officially attended the graduation ceremony. Now I’m pretty much waiting for my National Service to kick in, which is gonna happen on the 28th of June.

Instead of being a NEET guy waiting around though, I somehow got hired by the very same polytechnic (along with site-admin-san) as a software developer with a decent pay, so it’s all good.

Of course, that’s the main reason why I’m still unable to deliver my posts on time. Just for the record. :3

I’ve noticed something though, looking at my posts since my last birthday: I’ve turned into a nearly-full-time news blogger. Kind of ironic, considering I once looked down upon news bloggers myself, reasoning that they simply post news day after day for no real purpose. >_>

I’ve found out that that isn’t really the case; they (or should I say we now?) want to share whatever they’ve found with the world, so what better way to do it then a blog post (which would in turn update the feeds of their subscribers)?

It probably started when Fariz left and I hired guest bloggers to make up for it. Somehow, I progressed to writing news in Fariz’s place, to the point where it turned into overkill-long posts. Strangely enough, my efforts appear to be appreciated by the general public (AKA you readers), so I’m not gonna stop doing it anytime.

It does take a ton of time to research and write though (especially with this writer’s block I seem to be having these days), and I do miss quite a few juicy pieces of information at times, so thanks for bearing with me, guys!

On the other hand, I haven’t been able to keep up with the personal posts myself, sadly. Or at least general non-news posts, i.e. reviews and episodic posts. I wanted to write about each and every episode of K-ON!! (continuing the last time I did an episodic), though somehow that never reached fruition. ;_;

Also, something else I forgot to mention: my own notebook died. It bit the bullet way before the graduation ceremony, and it kinda sucks not being able to do all the things you want when you’re bored (i.e. play games). If you follow me on Twitter, you should know the story behind it, since I keep the rant-y stuff on there so that KK won’t turn into a blog run by an emo main writer.

Well, *looks at the clock* it’s 3 AM now, and I’ve written more than “a bit”, so I should probably stop digressing and get back to the main topic at hand:

Happy Birthday To Me!

Feel free to leave comments, however late it may be; I appreciate the gesture. And also, seriously, thanks for reading and following KK up till now; that alone is a great present to me. =)
