Great!
It's working! This free blogging website had some updates done to it, and I couldn't get my old blog updated as it says. I have one blog that I use to gather opinions of other people on a sensitive private subject matter such as prejudice, race, and so on. That is one of the wonderful thing about blog. You can be anonymous. Sometimes the technology that enabled us to sit at home to take classes and interact with people out there on the other end with no face make me feel so inhumane and lonely, but to be honest, that is one of the reason why I get on internet to write on my blog and respond to the other people's blogs. I'd like to learn about other people's life style, writing style, dreams, and plans for futures. But sometime I wonder if they are truly honest in what they write on their blogs. How about you? Are you 100% honest when you write your blog anonymously?

I feel like I can be more honest when no-one knows who I am. That's why I like the internet and internet classes-i feel less restricted. I am a somewhat shy person, more of an observer rather than someone who just jumps in there. I certainly have opinions about things but I don't get into it really with people I dont know-especially in class. What I like about online classes is that I feel I can talk to people and they don't know who I am. I've never had an online journal but I already find myself addicted to checking to see if anyone has commented on what I've written. For some reason-not being face to face with people I feel I can just open up and talk to them about anything.
One of my friend told me that he could talk about his very private problem on chat line. The problem includes his marital problem! I asked how he could talk about very sensitive things on a chat line, and he answered that nobody knows who he is. That made me sense. As long as he uses fake names..
I feel that I am just as honest if people know who I am or not. I have learned that my opinions count. I try to be very respectful when I comment and I try not to offend anyone. I will be just as honest as if I was face to face with that person.
