I started this blog all the way back in 2005 and it was known as "The Six SenSeS of the InSane" back then. I was going through a difficult phase in my personal life. So in my "desperation" to get better, I accidentally created an alter ego whom I named Perky. She would be wacky, funny, sarcastic and slightly insane, and not to mention totally crazy about all things pink.
I had learned back then that when I entertained others through my blog, I would think less of the crap I was going through. So yes, she was my distraction from my depression; the baby I had no choice but to care for.
Through time and blogging, I slowly healed and was no longer broken inside (also largely thanks to a certain
someone :D ). Nowadays, it's hard to tell the difference between my alter ego and I. Well, of course I don't go prancing around with a pink feather boa. At least not in public, that is ;)
It wasn't until 2008 that I decided to take my blog seriously. I took up paid blogging as well as putting up advertisements on my blog
(Please read my Disclosure Policy on paid blogging/advertising on my site). So I revamped my blog and that's basically how Perkier Than You came about.
All opinions on this blog are my own unless stated otherwise. This blog is meant for your reading pleasure, and surely not something you should be losing sleep over
(that's my job btw, and one that I'm not very good at).
Apart from writing on this blog, I'm also a source on
Associated Content (view my profile
here). I try to submit weekly articles on
Associated Content, so do check them out from time to time. If you're into handmade cards or tags, do check out my other blog
