In this short article I'm going to talk about my experience blogging and why I stopped.
I was fascinated with blogging at around middle school; seeing how people were able to share about what they liked and whatnot. I also wanted to share things I liked and my experiences in life. Of course, that was such a naive view, but honestly who cares that much, right?
I blogged about many things, mostly related to GATE. Games, Anime, Technology, and Education... Funny thing I used to be in GATE program in elementary school lol. So I started off at free hosting services like lighthost, webhost, really free webhosts that let you host on sub-domains. Then in 2012 I finally bought a domain that I liked! I named it SunKoiWish.
SunKoiWish evolved from being made from scratch just using basic dynamic PHP programming, html, css, and javascript/AJAX lmao, to Wordpress, and then Joomla! It was a fun time and I enjoyed blogging, but of course many things happened in my life, which I did my best to champion through such as University, my cardiac arrest, being dropped from military, figuring out what to do next, struggling with anxiety and depression, and losing my lunch money in the stock market! HAHAHAHA.
I can't believe all the things I did during University, and surprisingly it was all a waste of time, and I learned a lot about how society is shaped, the world, the governments, different types of people. Adulting was a huge wake-up call and I hated it. But there were some decent moments, nothing amazing though. With that in mind, I blogged about those experiences and whatnot and shared them online for anyone to read.
And with that comes one main reason I stopped blogging. Literally, people thought that would make me unhirable. My interests, opinoins, and criticism about anything triggers people that want to be bland and dull in life? Like seriously? Grown-ass mature adults that do less work in my entire life and have/live an easier life than me are criticizing me? But I realized that's how it is. Society has crafted and designed this extremely toxic work culture and environment, I daresay it is not savable or really a lost cause. So I decided to stop blogging to test my theory... Nope, I still cannot get a good paying job.
And now, we are here. almost 6 years of failures and still have nothing to show, other than stores of more failures, dealing with mentally ill people in the work force (God, so many narcs and closet fascists), I cannot tell you what beautiful thing about life there is. In my 20+ years of being active in society, I don't see it. UNLESS. You know, you are rich and like to abuse your power and control, sure. But there is really nothing special about trying to be alive on Earth.
So now I will blog again, because it's fun, that's all. You can think what you want, but if you're too afraid to talk or understand, I cannot help you with that!
