An interview, the meaning of blogging


Recently I was invited for an interview on the topic of ‘Cambodian Female Blogger’, which is a research done by a senior undergraduate from Department of Media and Communication, RUPP.

Last month I received a comment from Ms Lyda, the undergraduate, who requested for my participation in this research which I found interesting. We finally met on 15th of February. The interview took about an hour when I was asked several questions related to the creation of my blog.
Here are some questions I was asked.

‘When did I create this blog?’
‘What are the purposes of creating it?’
‘What are the benefits that I expect to obtain from this blog?’
‘Are there any constraints from my family or the society that deter me from blogging?’
……

Some bloggers have some special and unique intention for the creation of their blog. In fact, I have never had such an intention in creating this blog or noticed or expected any significant benefits I have been receiving or will receive from it. My basic intention was to share my experiences, knowledge, and impressions about something to interested people, or sometimes it’s just a means of relieving my feelings of stress and discontents. However, after being asked, I find that the most significant benefits I have been getting from blogging are the improvement of my writing ability and the development of my thinking and analyzing skill. I also develop a writing habit about any special events that worth sharing with my readers. It’s what I feel thankful for!
