New Friends in my New Blogging World

Posted by mhel in blogging, relationship on November 15th, 2007

I feel very wonderful today because I got this notice, notification, link alert or whatsoever from joanjoyce blog and when I visiter her site, I found her blog on friendship.

Honestly, I felt a lump in my throat and…. (sniffle… sniffle…) I felt awed and very happy. I never thought that just after two weeks in my new world (the blogging world), a blogger like joanjoyce already consider me as her friend.

Thank you so much sis for making me feel happy today. Honestly, I’m enjoying my blogging so much and it gives me a nice kind of high whenever I visit blogs such as yours and join forums where I talk to really cool people in this blogging industry.

Let me then thank you and all my friends who supported me in this endeavor and for all of those who visited and continue to visit my site. It is still a very young site but I am trying to improve it everyday.

For my new blogging friends…. this is for you!

A Toast to Friendship
