What makes a good blogger?

*These are my own thoughts and conclusions. I am jotting this down to remind myself only. If you feel I am describing you 100% in the first category, please feel kembang and thank me. Watch the chair, in case it breaks due to the kembangness. However, if you fall into the second category and feel offended, I feel pretty, oh so pretty. *
