i'm just writing once again--mainly b/c i am bored.. but you know what i remembered! i was going to write to you on the 9th of april and tell you "happy first birthday!!" but since i've just recently recalled that from memory... it's a little belated. sorry. abOUt one year ago i created yOu--not knowing what would come out of it or how long i would write in it. i guess it's turned out to be a good thing for me. hmm.. i remember thinking how strange it was that i was writing everything i would normally write in my paper journal on the net.. completely accesible to everyone. i suppose i still think it's a bit odd. it's also a bit odd how it has become this huge and crazy "trend" i guess you would call it. but i do believe this "trend" is here to stay unlike most. it's funny though.. b/c a lot of people just use their diary as their website. i mean, they use it as a place to show people their interests and whatnot. some people even have friendship notebooks within this. believe me--i've seen it! i wonder if that helps them any? i donno.. my thought is that a journal is the other side of you that always goes against what you're thinking. the advocate. i use it to balance out my thoughts and help myself realize things.. instead of being blind to my own one sided mind. a journal is a big debate that never ends.. but some parts end well, thankfully! well, trend or no trend... i'm really glad that this journal worked out so well for me. it's definately a lot easier to type out your thoughts and feelings rather than to scribble until your hand feels like it's gone numb. the only thing i don't like about writing on the net is that you don't have it all in one book to flip through and read.. haha. i know it sounds silly--but i like looking through my old journals and reading about how retarded i was. it seems to me tobey.. that i collect more and more thoughts and realizations every year. which astounds me b/c that must mean i am far from being smart. it seems like after each year has gone by, i've learned so much... and yet i think i know so much--but really i have had no idea. it's funny how people run that way. they think they know everything. and i, unfortunatly can't say i dont think that often--b/c i have caught myself thinking it. that's why i need yOu tobey! gotta learn from my mistakes.. sheesh, if only we could all learn from the mistakes of others.. the world would be just perfect eH? good night tobey. need SLEEP!!
