If having a blog hasn’t made it obvious enough, I guess I’ll come out and say it. I kind of want to be internet famous. Not for real famous, I just want the chances of someone I don’t know knowing me to increase dramatically. I don’t want to make money or be on television or have one stupid video of laughing things uploaded to YouTube. I just want a mild dose of internet celebrity. I don’t think that is too much to ask. In today’s society, I think it is expected.
Because of my strong desire to gain fame I check the stats on my blog, a lot. Yesterday I noticed that someone had found my blog by googling “claw hand deformity.” The country of origin for this google: Korean. And the real kicker: I was the fourth link to come up. Either censorship in Korea is high, or information on “claw hand deformity” is low. No matter how I roped him or her in, I’d like to say hello to the Korean who viewed my blog post about my banal kindergarten experience… I hoped it helped, and I help you tell your friends.
I’ve thought about whoring my blog out a little more. Maybe name each entry after celebrities. But in the end I’ve decided I much rather get famous this way. One awkward Google search from Korean at a time.
