Why I think blogging is beneficial - by stripe

Blogging? What’s blogging? Begging I know la...begging is beneficial because with a 'I’m so cute look', I get free food (KFC please) given to me. Just put my head on Lex's lap & act cute only...then tummy full full, burp burp.

(lex: blogging la, not begging. blogging is where u write down yr everyday thoughts on stripe-beagle.blogspot.com..duh...piak!)

ohhhh...blogging...well for me, as a dog, blogging is how I pass my time at home when Lex & Dee is at work. (Lex: no wonder my electricity bill so high!) When I blog, I put my thoughts down, cos Lex don't understand dog language ma. I bark WoOf & rowf is different meaning, u know. Sometimes when you put things on paper, or in this case, the monitor, when things are laid out properly, it makes more sense, at least to me.

Also, when I blog, it's my way of keeping in touch with my fellow friends who live far away, cos they blog too. Through blogs, I made a lot of new friends, that otherwise I wouldn’t have met like: scuba, joey & herbie. Though they make me jealous with gatherings & romps to the beach & eating outdoors, i feel happy for them. Herbie died last week, and his brother Helios is taking over the blogging pen (keyboard?) from him. His human, M was very sad & messages of condolences came pouring in from all over the world. Through Herbie's blog, M can remember him & their happy moments together, so a blog is like a journal that records your happy & sad moments so that at the time you need solace the most, you can read it anytime, anywhere.

Other than that, I blog to make announcements lo. it's a cheaper way of communication for my circle of friends. Like my new arrival puppy, I’m gonna post her picture up soon.

Well, there's not much reason a dog blogs other than the above. We have simple lives, blogging, begging, eating , sleeping, pooing while waiting for our humans to come home from work.

Now for my acceptance speech (always optimistic ma), if I win the contest, the domain or hosting will be for my pup who has yet to be named. Lex wanted to name her lat jiu (chili) but I don't want cos it sounds vulgar, so although Lilian don't like dogs, I would appreciate some suggestions from her too.
