P.U. Blog of the Week: August 2-8, 2005

It's time that I brought a little international flavor to Paradox Unbound.

This week's blog is ELR. Its owner, Reecia, lives in Singapore. I found this blog in a very random way and can't explain why I like it -- perhaps it's because the thoughts and experiences of "twentysomethings" around the world are remarkably similar.

Reecia spends a lot of time talking about what she eats, which is interesting because nearly all of the things she eats are unfamiliar to me (and most Americans). Her focus on food reminds me of the second and third entries of Keith's blog:

06-06-04

hey so this blog will focus primarily on music videos; no crap about what I had for breakfast or anything.

06-07-04

hey I ate a pancake today.

Blistering Blunders, a blog owned by Reecia's boyfriend ("Dear"), is interesting too.

Spoiler Alert: The most recent entry of ELR elaborates on the diarrhea Reecia had over the weekend and what she ate that caused it. As strange as it is for someone in Singapore to write a blog entry about having diarrhea, it's even stranger for me to be reading it in Los Angeles the same day, and it's far stranger for me to find a lot of humor in it. Isn't life in the blogosphere absolutely bizarre?
