livejournal
I have had this journal since 2001. That's almost forever, right? I dunno, sometimes i feel like a nerd. Even when i don't post a lot i check my friends page almost daily. If you guys write something witty, i might bring it up in conversation, like, "My friend ____ said...." with no mention that this "friend" is someone i've never actually met. Some of you, i feel anyway, know me better than my actual friends. You guys have known me forever... for example, Kristyn and Cristen, you have been my friends on LJ for YEARS. You guys were around when i was getting busted for drinking in high school, getting in fights with my mom, being grounded and getting my friends to type my LJ entries for me, etc. The people in my life now have no idea that person ever existed.
I don't know what the point of this was. I think what brought it on was realizing that the first person to ever add me as a friend on livejournal has deleted her account. Her name was Kristina... her user name was nouvelle_rozu, previously girlsworstfear (you'd think that after having an LJ as long as i have i'd remember how to do a user tag...) I really related to her. I sent her $5 once to help her visit her boyfriend in Brazil. I guess it's weird because i never actually met her. But, for some inexplicable reason, it made me really sad.
It made me also remember some of the other lj-friends i've had who have long since abandoned their LJ's. They're out roaming the world somewhere. What are they doing? Rachel, Morgan, Steve....what happened to them? Do they remember me? Do they remember the awful, high school me, the old me that i am no longer?
Guys, please don't ever delete your journals.
This entry will be the first public entry that i have made in years on the off chance that someone i used to "know" might, i don't know, be like me and wonder what happened to an old lj-friend. Maybe i'm just corny.
