This is inspired by Wabbit and Purple, they have both done a post on blogging and net-friends. so, i think its my turn now.. hehe..
When i started blogging in Nov last year, it was for "fun", cos i had nothing better to do. I was in a state of constant depression. my friend, wj was blogging and i caught the bug from him.. even after he stopped in Dec05, i continued. i was writing my sorrows , my pain , my dreams and i wanted to pen down all my frustrations, my fear and my loves. i never knew i will have an audience...until mr loobz came... he was the most supportive person i ever "know".. he never fails to be the ONLY one to leave a comment in my entries.. even when my entries are bordering on suicidal, he will still encourage me in a "pain in the ass" way... sometimes, he tries to get a reaction out of me by insulting my cat. Before loobz, it has not occured to me that i should read other people's blog..i was in my own world , absorbed in my own world of self-made sorrow... it was like that for a long time..my nickname was not "crazycat" then, it was "cat with depression"...and there is absolutely no funny pics at all back then..
i began to harass loobz's blog space... and smacking him there as well as in my own blog.. then i realised.. i have another visitor.. a silent one... she was "defending" me against loobz ...she is mistipurple... my 2nd audience.. i began to feel better.. i felt like people cared...and i was cursing myself for not checking her blog properly, i saw last updated as long time ago and thought she enjoy reading more than writing.. but she was blogging on and off then.. *sorry*
from the motivation of sillycelly, she is ever so lively and cheerful.. i was telling myself, there is one confident girl!!
i began to re-shape my life.. i do not wan to be depressed anymore... i became "crazycat"..
i was tired of the dark moods and crying spells i have.
i was tired of relying on medication (still on thou, better be safe! doc's orders).
i was tired of giving my boyfriend a hard time..
I was tired of me
one of the first thing i did was to change my blog template.. from the crying lady (purple will remember!) to pink cats to Error..
2nd thing i did was to be more vocal about myself, i started to comment on other blogs.. be thick-skinned i dun care..
and i found that once i started to write happy things, i feel happier..
and here i am, happier... really..
from sillycelly blog, i got to know knychai (kenny)... and then wabbit hops along from where??.. and from wabbit, caracola and kunstemaecker.. from purple came oceanskies and pinkie ... the rest, i am not really sure where U found me, but i am thankful that U did...
and also to all the other friends who have read but not commented (Jason S, Henry, Vassil, Leo , Karen and Janet to name a few), thanks.. thanks..

Oh Crazy Meow .. good thing you changed from suicidal meow to happier meow. Cats should always be happy, 'cos they are not as emotional as dogs. So, cheer up!!! Me also cat lover, I've got 2 of my own ...
i appreciate you very much.. *hugs* (i almost thought of leaving actually..) that was why there were numerous pauses in my last.
Lynne: thanks! cats rule!! meow!!
Purple: please dun leave.. u can pause, take a break, but please come back..
Wabbit: yea, moody template = no friends .. lol, all of u mean a lot of me, in blogworld, we can be ourselves!!
Yeah, I've noticed that too. That you are more cheerful these days. I am happy for you (but, hey! those pills are not too gd for u, I hope u cud kick out of it soon). And that you dun need chocolates (haha, as chocolates are heaty stuffs) anymore, as you've found new candies. Good luck and cheers! But chocolates will be lying around your cubbies in case one day u needed them.
This is such a touching post. Kelly (do you prefer I call you by this name?), I can assure you that you are growing stronger with each day. Glad to know you found solace in this blogosphere.
Come here you, so I can hug you to death (almost)! You Cat you, you Crazy Cat you, sniff sniff.
We have grown into a group in a very short time, and I find that extremely cool.
Singapore Rocks!
Why are Caracola and I in gray and the rest in red?
Oh I get it now, I'm stoopid.
Glad you are happier now *hugz*
