Random Snowflakes: Battle of the Old Posts

Are there old posts in your archive that you think people should look back on? Are there posts that you think your new readers would thoroughly enjoy reading?

I ask this because something strange is happening to my blog traffic. It's nothing to be alarmed about, of course, but it's definitely interesting.

Somehow, my old posts —like, almost-three-years-ago type of "old post"— are getting attention. I don't really know why... Nobody's noticed them much before (nobody except for my three best friends who were my only readers at the time).

Sure, sure, my newer, more popular posts are still garnering most of the hits, but my eyebrow sort of just rose by itself when I saw really really old posts getting a couple of hits per day.

So, anyway. Since some people seem to find these interesting, I (re-)present to you my Top 5 Oldest Posts. Read full post...

Katamaran (Laziness) - An all-Filipino post, and is currently one of the top 10 most visited posts in my blog. Yes. It's swimming in there, along with the top posts that are listed on the upper right side of this page. This post is actually my reaction paper on Tungkol sa Katamaran ng mga Pilipino a literary work by Dr. Jose Rizal, the Philippine National Hero. I wrote this for a social studies course during my senior year in college. Hm. Maybe students are looking for material for their reaction papers, as well? Haha!

Progression of Memory - Here's a pretty rambly post I wrote to celebrate my promotion into the world of flash drives. Harhar. The first half of the post is funny, methinks. Maybe that's why it's getting hits in the first place.

The Road to Strawberry Jam City - The mountainside view I got while on the way to Baguio City, the "Summer Capital of the Philippines", got me contemplatative, much.

Come to the Garden - Sonya's Garden, to be specific. So I suppose travel posts really do get attention, hm?

one-note samba - I remember that I originally wanted to write a rant that night, but ended up writing something comedic. Or so my friend said.

So...yeah. That's the top 5. There's still, like, a dozen more that get about a hit a day... If anybody's interested to know what those posts are, then gimme a holler.

Ciao!
