Hey now. Lookit the cobwebs of this place. Went on to check on some old sites to see what's what - what's stayed. And here I find all these incredible stuff and the anonymous life I've left behind.
And this was Livejournal. This was fandom. It's like some ebbing FEELS just washed through me, I liked what was here.
I've been re-reading my past entries for awhile. Those were really good times, really crazy times I had, and I had problem telling who's who for awhile since I gave my friends only letters to identify them. These written words are suddenly more precious than anything, (and somehow quite embarrassing). All these chance details, things easily mentioned and forgotten, they come flooding right back. I'm just happy I've blogged about them.
Also I'll be giving Dreamwidth a try, maybe, but I won't be doing any content transfer. I would still like to keep this one, there are still old journals and communities I want to read, seek and revisit. Maybe more fandom-sightseeing there and more of life as mine-own-goes here? Or two versions of the same thing? hahah fck no.
The layout was such a pain to transfer and I had to figure out how to recode it. It's been broken for a long time and I still didn't know what set it off and why, and there was only an incomplete not-really-functioning give-me-a-break back-up I could turn to. Finally managed to solve it and found out that it was LJ that refused to read my code all along. Now it works just fine on Dreamwidth despite the ugly manoeuvring just to get it to work. Now I'm free to choose anything for my current LJ layout.
Paid account? Still deliberating if it's worth it. I only did it for the icons, so if I ever feel the urge to want more, then yeah.
I'll be privatizing all my past posts now. Not sure why, but suddenly everything I ever wrote seems to be cringe-worthy. I was such a spunky unstoppable character, with a brazen kind of confidence that marches on and with a presence that screams BOOYAH I'll EAT YOU ALIVE- But I'm really glad for it, too.
My life is still pretty amazing. I wish you all be well.
