From Nothing to Something...

What's good...as of late, I've been going through old posts on the blog...like 2009 and 2010...and just seeing the things I wrote about, the things I went through...and how my blog slowly grew...from 1,000 hits to 2,000 to 5,000 to 10,000 and so on...it's actually crazy to me how we're over 100,000 now. It feels like just last week I started this blog. But since we're on the topic of reminiscing...I remember a boatload of people telling me this blog wouldn't last, I would give up, it wouldn't amount to anything, no one would read it, I'm wasting my time...I then look at the blog now...at all the countries and people it has reached...and it makes me smile. Even my friends...my close friends...my homies...yeah they were encouraging, but even at times they would joke about how small my blog was and how it would never blow up...they would like make fun of me and like say the link and stuff like that and like tell people jokingly about it and to go visit it...it's really just a testament to myself I guess...of all the hard work I put in and all the long nights and all the stress and burdens that this blog has put me through and has been in my life...but it's all been worth it. The more this blog grows...the longer it exists...the more it continues to be a bigger and bigger part of my life...lol watch me end up being like Perez Hilton or something...and be a full time blogger and be known specifically for my blog LOOOOL, but don't worry...that's not what I'm aiming for, that's not why I do what I do...I don't do it for the glory, for the fame or for the popularity...I started this thing as a way to vent and it continues to be one of the biggest reasons...but another big reason I continue to do what I do is for you...you the reader, reading this post, this line right now....you guys keep me motivated to keep going...otherwise I'd be talking to myself lol...the fact that it keeps growing and is getting more and more attention makes me want to keep it going and promote it more and make it all nice and fancy lol...so thank you guys for giving me that push that I needed to make the blog what it is today.
