Dear Ms Atiqah,

We regret to inform you that the that the recent test results show that you have been inflicted with the Excessive Weblogging Virus(EWV). Fortunately, the virus appears to be weak and shows no signs of growing or regenerating , therefore, it can be expected that it will be taken care of naturally by your body's immune system and antibodies. All traces of the virus should be gone in a few days. However, while it is there,the virus poses a threat as it increases you chances of contracting the disease blogitis. While blogitis doesn not cause harm physically, it still brings severe implications as it may affect your mental and time-management capabilities. Therefore, we must stress that if you start experiencing any of the symptoms mentioned below, please see your doctor IMMEDIATELY to determine the next course of action.

Blogitis symptoms may include:
  • excessive blogging(despite the fact your readership is meagre)
  • allocating an extensive amount of time towards blog related activities (e.g: surfing blogs) to a point where other activities(such as homework) are negelcted.
  • showing over-the-top behaviour when it comes to blogs, such as making your blog server you homepage, fussing over your blog's template and lay-out, and opening up a new blog at a different server even though you already have a perfectly good blog
  • cracking your head over your blog name and description
  • often finding yourself thinking about what to include in your next post

Once more we would like to remind you to see your doctor at once if any of the symptoms mentioned above occur.

Thank You, and have a nice day.

A Medical Centre
