I loooove journalism.
So I'm writing this column for the next issue of my school's paper and it's going to be about long distance relationships, specifically mine. Hah. It's weird. It's not like I don't know what to say. I have an endless of experiences and thoughts and emotion to share, but it's so hard to find the accurate way to say it.
I don't want to sound like a silly, love stricken, mushy girl because then anything I have to say will be ignored and I'll be labeled as someone insubstantial and unrealistic. I also don't want to be too spare in my writing because I don't want anyone to think my relationship is a piece of unfeeling industrial machinery either.
I find that writing something personal is the hardest thing anyone can ever do. Communicating exactly what you feel to someone entirely different from you, is amazingly hard. I want to do it though, and even if I have to go through a dozen failed attempts and edits, I'll do it!
I both love and despise column writing.
The process is frustrating, but the end result is...delightful. :p
I love you. Yes I dooo.
