Ni Hao Ya'll! So I know I have been remiss in posting for the last couple of days. So I will make a deal with you, if you leave comments I will write more posts. I actually have a couple mostly written waiting for me to post. But right now I just don't feel motivated to send my words out into the great abyss of the world wide web, if there is no one reading them.
I have been told by a reliable source that there are people who are actually reading this blog, the quote actually was "they live for it." The fact that the visitor counter seems to be increasing seems to support this theory, however, I have just not accepted it yet. Why? You ask. Well I asked for people to leave comments, and I haven't heard from anyone including my parents!
So I have come to the conclusion that you all must think that China is still living in the stone age. For whatever other reason would you all not leave a few simple words? Well, I want to dissuade you from the notion. I can check the web and receive email from my phone, as well as, having internet access at every hotel I have stayed at this far.
To make it easier you may now leave anonymous comments, so you don't even have to register. So to review how to leave a comment, follow the following eight steps. Although you should always use extreme caution when typing many, many, many highly scientific studies have proven that there is no lasting effects or damage from leaving comments on a blog post. It is really simple, I promise.
1) At the bottom of the post is a little underlined word "comment," find it.
2) Now, click on it. A pop-up window will open.
3) In the box on the right under the heading "LEAVE YOUR COMMENT" write as short or long a message as you like, some examples include:
"Hi!"
"Thinking of you! Missing you!"
"Oooh, I didn't know that, but it is really interesting. Thanks for sharing."
"More photos please."
"Your post was so funny, I pee'd my pants laughing"
":)"
4) Sign "Your Name."
5) Type in the verification word, from the picture above, into the box below.
6) Choose your identity by choosing one of the check boxes. Either sign in with your Google or OpenID, leave your name/website URL, or choose anonymous.
7) Click the big orange button that says "PUBLISH YOUR POST"
8) Sit back and relax, and know that your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
Love to You All!
