How I watch my favorite TV series.

That picture above, explains how I watch my favorite tv series. On my bed, through my laptop. 

Inspired to write this post lepas terbaca Bestie's new blog post. Sibuk sangat dengan aktiviti mendownload all the TV series she missed. 

Basically we both watch the same kind of genre. Cuma saya lebih kurang cerita yang ada genre teen or adult romance macam Vampire Diaries or Gossip Girls. I'm more into Supernatural or The Walking Dead. Cuma lately ni ter-hook up with Beauty & The Beast.

Lulz.

Anyway, this whole watching through laptop started few years ago during Smallville season. Tapi masa tu I did not do the downloading work. My older brother did. Dia burned kan dekat cd and then I just watched it.

And then Smallville gets boring. I returned home from college. I got bored. And then I heard about Heroes. So I downloaded it because of the sake of it is sooooo X-men-ish and Milo Ventimiglia. Sebab dulu kan peminat series Gilmore Girls. Oh my childhood~

And then came Desperate Housewives. Macam mana boleh terjebak dengan this series, I don't even know. But man Jesse Metcalfe is hawt!

Tapi I didn't watch Desperate Housewives until the very final episodes. Because entah apsal, I got bored watching it through the end. Macam dah takde kick. And then I switch to downloading Supernatural. Sebab time tu tengok live dekat TV is no longer relevant.

Why?

1. Lembab! Dekat America dah season 5, dekat sini baru nak show season 3. Gila!

2. Banyak la dia nak censored.

3. The stupid subtitles are such a distraction.

4. I don't need TV ads to kacau my leisure time!

5. I always missed an episode.

So yeah. Since then on, I'm like dedicated my life to download every TV series that I'm interested in. 

Dulu direct downloader takde yang best. So I use torrent. Bittorrent has been my favorite since forever. Dulu masa zaman baru nak jadi leecher, cari link torrent dekat random torrent searcher. Macam piratebay lah, kickass torrent lah, extra torrent lah. 

But now, I stick to only one. EZTV torrent je. This is the only website yang provide me with complete episodes of every series that I need. 

Sampai sekarang I uses this website to keep me updated. 

Now, the TV series yang keep me alive are obviously Supernatural, The Walking Dead, Glee, American Horror Story, Beauty & The Beast and How I Met Your Mother. 

Yup. 

That's it. 

I don't wanna get too hook up on too many TV Series like I used too. Nanti bila semua went on a break, I will go nuts. Like what would I do with my life???

LOL

No.

Seriously.

These tv series memang buat saya jadi macam tu.

They are my drugs. 

Hahaha

Okbye.

Tulis Hari Hari.

Hi.

Hari ni pun ada post baru.

Sebenarnya memang dah pasang niat nak tulis at least satu post every day.

Kata nak active blogging balik kan?

So haruslah update hari hari, tak gittew?

Kalau tak update blog hari hari, macam mana nak tarik traffic?

Macam mana nak attract readers?

Sebab saya tau, bukan semua readers ni rajin leave a comment. Sebab yang paling ramai dekat blog walking ni majority nya silent reader. 

I know.

Because I am one. 

Plus I am the type who always check the date of their last updated entry. 

Kalau entry latest was a few days ago, I will most probably gonna stalk the whole blog. 

Lepas tu tengok the blog dah hidup menapak dekat blogger ni since when. If before the year 2009, selalunya I will respect the blogger more. Sebab they never given up on blogging. 

 Lagi2 if the blog looks so simple. Guna template blogger yang lama. Or skin from pyzam. LOL! Gila kental weh hidup.

I mean, blogging these days dah tak boleh bergantung sepenuhnya guna default blogger template. Sebab at least you need your own identity to represent the blog.

Macam my blog actually still using original blogger's template. Yang cuma ditokok tambah sebarang dua je. Macam header, background, web address logo, animation dekat title post. Semua itu ditambah sebab nak label this blog macam tuan punya.

Honestly I did not learn setup blog sebegini rupa in one day ok.

I search for tutorial. I setup a test blog. Godek sana, godek sini. Paste this and that. Learn how to read html code. Slowly I get the hang of it. 

 Sejujurnya I never find my blog template and design satisfying. Ade je lah yang tak kena dengan mata. Ada je yang belum cukup. 

Saya sebenarnya cukup jealous kalau blog walking lalu terjumpa blog2 yang designnya cantik. Like how did you do that? 

Ada yang design sempoi gila tapi if fills with the blogger identity. Best je rasa nak scroll baca sampai khatam satu blog. 

But ada juga jenis yang semak. Jenis widgets bersepah. Siap ade auto play song defuq. Dengan gambar sebesar besar alam terkeluar dari border post. Lepas tu auto open new tab setiap kali click on a link. Itu dasar blogger mintak kaki namanya. 

I'm not telling that you can't build your blog according to your liking. Cuma, don't over do it. Sebab silap hari bulan boleh buat orang benci to step in your blog again. 

Memang kadang2, itu cara untuk naikkan rating and traffic blog. Tapi agak la sikit sebab cara tu boleh buat readers annoyed. 

Saya tahu. Sebab saya pun salah seorang readers yang lagi sikit nak smash my laptop screen every time I came across that kind of blog. Bloody annoying ok.

 Setiap hari saya akan berdoa supaya saya tidak berubah menjadi seperti blogger2 tersebut. Akan saya kekalkan sifat malas dan annoyed saya untuk tidak menokok tambah widget merepek di dalam blog saya. 

Hahaha

But that doesn't mean that I won't change my template every now and then. Berapa kali dah since start blogging saya duk tukar template? Ikut mood most of the time. Lepas tu kononnya setiap kali buat comeback, setiap kali itu juga nak tukar template.

Sebab tu in a matter of time, blog ni tak lama lagi akan berubah wajah jugak. 

Jadi apa?

I oso dunno.

Kita tunggu.

At the mean time, akan saya sajikan anda dengan tulisan2 yang sebegini. 

Boleh?

Baca ke?
