I'm often distracted at work, instead of reading documents or writing codes, I involuntarily just turn to the computer and start surfing. ( I wonder how high the productivity must have been before Internet was introduced into work place). What do I normally surf? Well, for the past 1.5 years, my obsession has been everything Israel, e.g. Israeli news sites - Haaretz, JPost, Ynet. Today, I started from one article in Haaretz, jumping from link to link: euphemism by Michael Handelzalts -> Wislawa Szymborska ->Michael Handelzalts -> deadsea scroll -> and I came upon this interesting blog by an Israeli woman. I really reading her ranting and views. So the idea came to my head, why can't I do the same - blogging? Especially, everyday, I have so much thinking and pondering going in my head and I have no one to share with (therapist can't see me everyday), I should just write them down. Also, hopefully blogging will get me out of this confusing and depressive state I have been in. Good luck to me! It might be fun, I've never done anything creative, like writing, because I've been such a boring computer nerd all my life. Let's hope my English will be good enough for me to express myself. Let's see how it goes...just like everything else I'm doing, fumbling in life hoping for the best.
