Bikkuri Project

I have attempted to delve into the minds of the Musume, perhaps it’s time to delve into my own mind for once. I seem to spend an awful lot of time blogging, and I’m certainly not getting paid for it or doing so under duress, so we can assume that I enjoy it. The more I think about it though, the more unsure I am about exactly why I blog. I’ve considered a few options.

1. I’m hoping to spread news of Hello Project and earn them more fans.

No, I don’t think this is it. I’m writing under the assumption that everyone who bothers to read this blog is already at least familiar with h!p, so I doubt I’m creating any new fans. I guess that particular motivation is more accurate now that I have two blogs, because I can do some cross-promoting. I feel guilty when I do that though, so I try to keep it to the minimum.

2. I like writing in general, and practice makes perfect.

There may be some truth to that. I’ve loved to write since I first learned how, and have, at various times in my life, considered trying to make a career of it. I do hope that keeping this blog, not to mention receiving critiques from comments/international wota write-ups, will work to improve my writing skills. I don’t think this is my primary motivation though. I mean, I could be writing anything, so why this?

3. I feel that my opinions are superior to all others and therefore, the world needs to hear them.

Gee, I hope that’s not it. That would make me kind of an ass, wouldn’t it?

4. I love Jpop, and Hello Project in particular, but I don’t have anyone to talk with about it, so I use this as an outlet.

It’s true! I’ve even posted about that particul
ar frustration. I think I’m getting warmer now.

5. I am just as much an attention whore as Reina, and I keep this blog because compliments, recognition, and the knowledge that lots of people are reading it makes me ridiculously happy

Uh oh. That might well be a big part of it. To think that I criticized Koharu for being an attention whore, when I may well be worse than she is. Oh cruel irony! I don’t like exploring my mind anymore. It’s full of uncomfortable truths. This exercise is over!

Owatta,
