first blog!

The first time I tried blogging it was at a blogging workshop me and my dad but mostly me were typing what you are reading now.

As you know this is my first time blogging.

I attended a blogging workshop at NIE. Mr. Joe Lai arranged the workshop. Ms November and Mr Bashir helped me through the workshop.

I will be looking forward to update you on other interesting stuff.

We had a great time at the blogging session didn't we?

Glad you love hermit crabs. But let's leave these animals on the shore shall we?

Thank you for sharing and looking forward to more posts!

Hi Vere,

hermit crab is a good 're-cycler'. You know why? It does not build its own home, but go around looking for an empty shell to shift into once the shell it is using is too small for its body. It does not bother itself too much about having 'new things' as long as it is a comfortable home. I like a saying that goes - 'A house is not a home'. You know why? A house is just a house. What makes it a home is the people living in it and fill it will love and warmth. It is then a true home, otherwise, a house is just a hollow shell. You see, when we go into wild places - feel the wind, hear the waves, see animals roaming free in their natural home - we not only learn sciences but also about ourselves by staying in touch with our good feelings. It's really wonderful... seeing 'beyond' the hermit crab... and muse! Hee hee! Keep writing and keep smiling! : )
