WARNING! LONG POST AHEAD!!!



"I am @ Youth.sg....what is that lor. I only know youth.sg is like, some online thingy. Online...online...OH YAR! I blog right? I blog. I share my views online...WHEE!"

Task:

"To make it a bit more challenging for you guys, the theme is a social issue of your choice. This can be broadly defined – it can mean school uniform trends, the emo kids generation, animal welfare, globalisation, etc. Take your pick. You can even write about more than one social issue. But make sure it’s creative!"

I am @ Youth.sg defines the epitome of Singaporean Youths. Singaporean youths spend increasingly alarming (well, to parents, that is) amounts of time online. Whether its spent surfing the net, blogging or chatting to others on MSN, IMVU, ICQ and the like, Youths, well most youths, turn to the World Wide Web for unending entertainment.

Good? Bad? Ugly? It depends on how the time is spent, that is. For instance, if its spent blogging, well then, blogging about what? If its spent blogging about personal prefrences blah, bah, blah...well then I guess it's fifty fifty.

So, like what the Arena has also shown, although Loyang lost, I still believe that bloggers ARE IN FACT, becoming more influential. See, even my "English tecaher" is asking me to write an essay on "I am @ Youth.sg".

So yea, Bloggers are now getting more influential. Our views matter. Seen the newspapers lately?

So speak up! Lets be the future! Lets lead the new generation of influential bloggers!

So thats what I'm doing, taking this one little step.

I'm defining myself.

So yes, I am @ Youth.sg.

"YEA! FINISH LE! One page mah? Heck care lah!"
