I know you're all waiting with so much enthusiasm on what really happened during the college years. I should have a book on HOW TO SURVIVE for your own perusal and viewing enjoyment. It was such a very long, long story and to have them all posted here in details will be or rather would be categorized as an OPEN BOOK. And what do I get from it? I have to be discreet in my dealings here through the net especially when I need not to post some of those names involved because they have private lives. I don't mind posting their names or the whole stories but you think those people would like being read here in my blog throughout the net? You'll never know what each opinionated mind is. Others would be enjoying the fun of reading their names as part of my stories yet there are certain particular fews who value their privacy and you'll never know they don't like being associated for fear of the "unknowns or whatever consequences."
Besides what could they get from it. That's right what could other people get from reading their names as part of the story or blogs? If probably they are authors or writers of books they want as much publicity and if they are actors or actress or celebrity they might enjoy such free publicity. For ordinary person or group of people it's best to ask their opinion first. Each individual is different. One person would like being mentioned and the other person would like being hidden or let say would rather be anonymous. It's the same kind of ideology of authors from the past when they used pseudonyms. Why they have to resort to that kind of "hiding?" from others? What are they afraid of?
First of course as I said they value their privacy. Second, afraid being stalked by strangers or mobbed by public. Retaliation and rejection goes hand and hand. Threat from racial slur, injury, and being sued is the worst case scenario. How many tabloid writers, newspaper writers and moguls were then slap with libel? So many...you can't barely count for so many of them were sued per case basis. Each one asking for money or payment. How much a writer earns that time and as of today in this generation? I know for one thing that a newspaper writer decided it's best to cook and serve the readers with food and new recipe instead at her own expense. Cooking and baking using her own financial stability to maintain her readership so that she's still heard and be seen in the blogworld. Blogging and writing in the networld can be very competitive. It is superlatively highly competitive.
