It's been forever since i've written in this old thing, but i pulled an all nighter tonight and found that after i burned myself a few cds, i had nothing else to do really. Gradually consumed by boredom, i started looking at some of my friend's old entires, particularly the ones who havent written in a long time. I eventually got to a journal that i especially enjoyed reading. It was the journal of one of my best buddies in the world, my friend, the Nature Boy himself, Kevin Schroeder. (kevin02)
I wasnt initially sure why i enjoyed his entries as much as i did. They were never very long, and they werent very personal, but there was something about the simplicity and the way he writes that made it seem as if he and i had just had some sort of tacit conversation. His entries gave me just a little glimpse into his life without much verbiage, and yet, i could always tell that it was Kevin who wrote them. As i read on, i found myself recalling events, memories, and catch phrases that i havent talked about in what seems like ages.
His entires probablly wont seem like much to just any reader, so i would assume that my views would be understood only by those who are actually friends with Kevin, but who knows, maybe there are others out there who can relate, and maybe this will inspire them to look up an old friend's entires. Maybe it will inspire others to start up writing again. Who Knows? Regardless, anyone who reads his entries will at least see that Livejournal was sort of just his place to post a thought or two, or maybe retell a funny experience, and i like that... a lot.
