Salahkah?

Is it wrong to write your blog in English? Nope... How about writing in an imperfect English?

I dont think it is wrong at all... thats my opinion...

Eventhough your English teacher may cringe reading your blog, thats not the main point... What matters most is why do you want to write? If you write just to show off your flawless English, then it would be a shame if you make even a single mistake... BUT, if you are writing blog with the sole intention of sharing your thoughts, your stories... i do not think writing in the so called imperfect English (with wrong grammars and vocabularies context) could hinder you from telling your stories at its best...

Read somewhere while blog-hopping, comments about people writing in poor English... ohhh goshhh... this is not an English class... People write about something... people talk, as broken as the English might be, but thats the best practise they could ever think of... When i read such terrible comments i must say from these blogs (eventhough they are not only commenting about language, they are commenting about everything), i can't keep myself from thinking, "i am not free from being judged by people whom are strangers to me"...

So, what should i do? Close my blog and let only these 'clever' people do the blogging? Or write in Bahasa Melayu, or Bahasa Sarawak?

NOPE, i will keep on blogging. This is the only way i could communicate with my long lost friends, this is the only way i could talk to myself without any consequences of people calling me crazy a.k.a. gila... and this is one of the ways of telling my husband news about me and irdina...

I like to read blogs written in PURRRRFECT English... but that alone doesn't stop me from reading the so called imperfect blogs... and for some of the commented ones, i even enjoyed reading them...

ohhh... i might be feeling a little bit melancholic over readings such comments (in other peoples blogs actually), plus pitying the blog owner(s) to have to endure such blunt behavior...

Dont judge my English aaaa ;) :p
