Japanese blogs are good reading practice if you can find some interesting ones.
\n\u3000
\nMost share some unique characteristics.
\n\u3000
\nI don’t know who wrote the rules of Japanese blogging…
\n\u3000
\n…but you have to use the “Enter” key a lot.
\n\u3000
\nThe writing tends to be kind of aimless as well.
\n\u3000
\nI think celebrity blogs are probably the biggest in Japan.
\n\u3000
\nIf you’re an attractive celebrity who also happens to be an \u30aa\u30bf\u30af geek like \u3057\u3087\u3053\u305f\u3093<\/a>, you’re bound to get a huge following of fantasizing geeks.
\n\u3000
\nIt’s like the ultimate fantasy.
\n\u3000
\nSometimes, I wish I was a hot, geeky celebrity. Then my blog would be popular.
\n\u3000
\nBut I don’t want geeky, fantasizing fans. Yuck! \uff3c(\u2267\u2266)\uff0f
\n\u3000
\nOh yeah, don’t forget to use lots of cute smileys.
\n\u3000
\nHere’s another one:
\n\u3000
\n( ^\u30fc\uff9f)b\u30b0\u30c3! All right! (Pat myself on the back!)
\n\u3000
\nThere’s one more crucial aspect to writing a Japanese blog…

\nSO ANNOYING! \uff3c(*\uff1e\uff1c)\uff0f<\/strong><\/span>
\n\u3000
\nI enjoy a number of Japanese blogs like \u3046\u307e\u306e\u30db\u30cd<\/a>.
\n\u3000
\nFor instance, one of her posts is about strategies for milking herself reserves<\/a> for the baby so that she can drink alcohol.
\n\u3000
\nThat’s my kind of wife!
\n\u3000
\nAnother one I enjoy is by yet another hot, (kinda) geeky celebrity: \u771e\u934b\u304b\u3092\u308a<\/a>.
\n\u3000
\nYou can tell she’s geeky from the following excerpt:<\/p>\n

\u51cc\u5357\u6226\u3067\u30e1\u30ac\u30cd\u304f\u3093\uff08\u5c0f\u66ae\uff09\u304c\u6c7a\u3081\u305f\u30b9\u30ea\u30fc\u30dd\u30a4\u30f3\u30c8\u30b7\u30e5\u30fc\u30c8\u304f\u3089\u3044\u7d76\u5999\u306a\u30bf\u30a4\u30df\u30f3\u30b0\u3060\u3063\u305f\u3093\u3067\u3059\u3088\u3002<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u3000
\nThat won’t make any sense unless you’ve read Slam Dunk<\/a>, which I think is one of the first steps to becoming a geek.
\n\u3000
\nOf course, I have read all 31 volumes. <(\uff40\u30fc\u00b4)>
\n\u3000
\nThose are supposed to be arms tucked smugly behind my head, in case you didn’t get it.
\n\u3000
\nThis next blog is so popular, they made a drama of it and a PSP game: \u9b3c\u5ac1\u65e5\u8a18<\/a>.
\n\u3000
\n13 millions hits on the counter! (\u309c_\u309c;)
\n\u3000
\nIt’s very funny but has lots of scrolling. (;\u00b4\u30d8\uff40) \u306f\u3041\uff5e
\n\u3000
\nTell me your favorite Japanese blogs in the comments!
\n\u3000
\nNext time, I’ll try writing a real Japanese blog post in real Japanese!
