Hi there all! I’m Uncle Sha and I’ll be blogging until Yanni has recovers from her high fever. Take care yar babe. Your blog is in fine hands, muahahaha *shows dr evil grins*. Some of you might ask of my credibility as a blogger compared to our popular ‘laser blog queen’ Yanni. Well here are my credentials below …

I hope that is enough to convince you that I’m up for the job! Let’s not deviate, this entry is not about me but more of a well important topic. The issue at hand is “Are you a blog addict?”, may it be a blogger or just a reader. You many not even realize it, but you … yes YOU might be a blog addict!
First up of course, we need to define what is a blog addiction tell-tale-signs
#1) You periodically dream that you are blogging or you dream of the bloggers you read often
#2) You often think of blog topics, what to write and future entry posts, sometimes at the oddest time and location such as sitting on the toilet or during during marital activities!
#3) You check your blog or your favourite bloggers website every five minutes. You even spare a certain time in the day to reply to comments and post entries, putting ‘Do no disturb’ sign on the door
#4) You would rather ask your friends or family member to get in touch with you by reading your blog or post comments ONLY!
#5) You setup a blog for your pets and you’re posting blog entries acting as if you’re the pet. Example of a blog here
#6) You can’t remember dates to your girlfriend birthday or important anniversary dates but you know by hard the blog domain of your favourite bloggers
#7) You blog not only about the daily issues but also every thing you did in the last hour. Oh brother!
#8) You’re not happy with just blogging these days, so you start making blogging entries in advance. You type it out on the MRT, during lunch times on the laptop, saving it in drafts. You even started to use Twitter to record every movement you do
If you suffer from any of the above afflicted signs, the next logical step is acceptance that you’re a blog addict. Please attach this “Are you a blog addict?” badge on your blog to show that you are a blog addict, and you’ve come to terms with it and you wish to remedy it.
Here’s my recommendations if you wish to overcome this ‘trying times’ of blogging addiction. I was once a blogger addict too, but I overcome it these easy 4 steps below! Please bookmark and forward this page to your friends. Help them to help yourself. I’m sharing with you my experience, as I want to ‘pay it forward’
1) Impose a self-curfew – If you’re supposed to sleep at 11pm, go to sleep lah dei. Don’t blog away until wee hours of morning. I’ve a personal service, where you employ me to call you to check on you. More info at http://www.Let-Sha-Check-on-You.com. If I believe you’re telling me a lie, I’ll come down to your house & check it for myself. I knock your head if you bluff me!
2) When waking up, don’t turn on the PC! – Please once you turn on the PC, that’s it. You fingers get itchy and you’ll blog or surf to a blogger website. Don’t! Get a coffee, breakfast, sex or something
3) Get out of the house – It’s about time you smell the roses, rather than smelling your PC. Grab your keys, go to Orchard or something and oggle and pretty looking ah bengs or minahs. If you need company, I can accompany you. My escort rates are $15/hr thank you
4) Destroy your PC - This is the extreme of the extreme. I’ve some customers under my blogging addiction program that swears this is the only thing they can resort to remedy their addiction. It’s so liberating. But of course, most of the comment they feedback, they should have just return the PC to the shop and get a refund. Duh! Now most of them are TV addict now, being there’s no more PC to use. Well I’m coming up with another program, “Are you a TV addict” next. Stay tune for that one!
I hope this blog entry has serve its purpose to the blogging community and all of Yanni’s legion of ‘laser’ fans and friends at hand. Hmm that’s a mouthful tongue twister. Let’s do it one more time! I need more practice as I’m ‘pelat’ aka not articulate enough
Also I can still be contacted at 1800-BLOG-ADDICT if you wish a more personal advise and help with your current blogging addiction. You’re not alone! Let me help you

Uncle Sha, you’re just a very nice person! You’ve got my respect… for being such a gentleman for helping Yanni out when she fell sick! Kudos to you for doing that
I’m suspecting myself to be a blogger who gets increasingly addicted to blogging! Sometimes when lessons get too boring I can virtually see my wordpress login screen in front of my eyes and waving at me “Come and blog!!!”
LOL! It is sort of weird for me to say this but it is so true! And I can imagine myself typing wildly off the keyboard when an idea struck me at any time of the day.
Luckily I live in a boarding school where internet access is quite troublesome as we’ll need to book a slot and get our lazy butts down there to use the internet… which is qutie a disincentive for internet users. And since the computer lab gets super cold after sitting in there for some time I usually limit myself to 2 hours of internet access each day, which is quite enough. Weekends are exceptions because that is when I have free time to bloghop and surf random blogs as well as leaving long-winded comments (like this one!) on other people’s blogs.
And since I’m quite into photography I use quite a significant portion of my free time going all around the place looking for inspiration… so I don’t get that dying feeling to blog, unlike some die-hard bloggers that I know around me
Thanks for bringing this interesting issue up!
jus askin cus he kept repeatin tat he stalks u….tats y….
lysa – i stalked shah too!!!
