Final.
Hey, everyone.
There isn't nearly as much going on in my life as there was last semester, but I'm still working out the kinks in what it means to be a responsible human being. The knee-jerk reaction cited in my last post was unreasonable, and I acknowledge this. That said, it points to something I'm actively uncomfortable with: the level of intimacy and vulnerability that characterizes this journal. I created it when I was fourteen, and I've spent the past five years writing in it as though very little has changed me, or caused me to mature beyond adolescence. That time is over as of now. I'm creating a new journal, of a wholly different character; this one is too laden with memory. I will be adding most of you. If you would like to return the favor, feel free -- I will probably welcome you with open arms. If not, then this is a convenient way to disassociate yourself from me in the context of livejournal; I won't take it personally, or as an indication of a Real Life disassociation unless you tell me that it is. It's time for me to make some significant changes in my life, and this is a beginning. I'll post the name of the new journal once it's been created.
It's been one hell of a ride. Goodbye.
