And I seriously wouldn't have remembered it (or even thought about it) if LJ didn't decide to send me a virtual gift to celebrate this journal's seventeenth anniversary today. It was sorta funny, the email I received read: "you've received a new virtual gift on your livejournal!" and my first thought was, "Wait, they're still doing those?" Then I ( Read more... )

In 2005 I sat in front of my computer and decided to stop stalking people's LJs to read Spangel fanfiction, I decided it was time to be practical and create a space where I could keep track of all the stories as easily as possible. After all, to have them all appear on my flist instead of having to go around and look for fics seemed like a good ( Read more... )

You know how I'm usually bitching at LJ for one thing or the other? How lately I'm lamenting the loss of "the past" and how much I miss having more than 10 posts a day to read on my f-list?

It's my LJ Anniversary today :) Eight years... I mean *eight* years! How did that happen?? It seems only yesterday and instead when you check my userinfo it says I created this LJ in 2005. Wow ( Read more... )

For months, the only friends I had here were those two writers and a couple of people I had exchanged comments with by chance. Slowly, this place has grown and evolved ( Read more... )

I was saying this to felisblanco yesterday. I've been around here for four years now; it's been four years since I created this LJ. Four years. In some way it seems like a very long time... I mean, four whole years! Can you believe it? Where does time go ( Read more... )

When I look back, it amazes me that I've been around LJ for three whole years now. Time really does fly, doesn't it? I can't believe it's been so long already... it seems just yesterday I was sitting at my desk, with the "create an account" page opened in front of me, debating with myself about the username I wanted to choose. And instead it all ( Read more... )
