Amazed by my blog stats LOL

Due to the recent Gushcloud saga
various bloggers/sites have been posting blog stats
and according to the famous xx
she can get as high as 70k pageview per day during her peak
and an ordinary blogger should perhaps have thousands daily

This makes me wonder
how has my pathetic blog been doing
so here's my stats over the past 4+ years........

Observation: there're peaks in Decembers over the past three years
Rationale: December is tutorial time for Korean year end shows hahahahaha

So... most people searched for, well, Inkigayo LOL
(but what's that "at 9 10 2009 11 39 59 am thingy??????)

Again, this shows that people are here for the music shows tutorials XD

As expected, they are people residing in Korea,
likely to be exchange students who can't really understand Korean...
And fellow friends from Singapore... well... I'm based in sg so... ^^

Interesting sia LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
