This is definitely the hardest thing to do. So many things to talk about, it pushes me to ask, "where should I begin?" We have been taught in our primary school even up to our college years the essence of introduction and the manner it should be done. There are many ways to start the expression of scholarly ideas. There are narratives, anecdotes, poems, quotations and many more. These various techniques function as attention grabber of your article, your essay or your story. Hence, an introduction should be enticing to engage your reader to read your work. It also gives hints and outlines of what will be the content of your work. But upto this very moment, I'm on my post graduate studies, the dilemma on introductory statements still lingers. Should I begin with a cliche statements? or should I start with an anecdote? Admittedly, I have personal preference in making introductions. Evidently, I always utilize questions to get the attention of my reader. Have you notice it?
Now, this introduction is to provide the usual framework I follow in making the articles here in my blogspot. Since this site only limits to a 500 character description, thus, I think I should have an introductory article not hindered by a minute space. Here we go:
Basically, the content of my articles would tackle international political issues. I would like to dwell on such since I believed I have a grasp on the matter because of my educational background. Nevertheless, articles might also range from other issues aside from the said topic because of the ubiquity of politics. I might as well relate current international issues to my day to day personal affairs to have that explicit personal touch on the issue. I would like to provide a profound analysis of every matter but I admit that this will depend on various considerations (i.e. time alloted, psychological stance, etc) so please bear with me on this.
On every article, I will also concede that this is not an authoritative interpretation of the current affairs. I will be open to criticisms and suggestions. If evidence stands against my interpretation then I'll be glad to accept it. "I stand corrected."
At the end of the day, what is most important is not my interpretation nor my articles but the information this enterprise helps provide. As this blogspot was entitled, however, "all information is on a need to know basis" Thank you very much.
