here comes lent...
Well last year for lent I gave up the internet and sweets for lent. It was really good for me to not be on here wasting all my time, so I've decided to sort of do that again. I'm still going to use the internet, but Im not going to go to any of my blogs (myspace, livejournal, xanga) for the entire lent season.
I find myself wasting a whole lot of time on here that I could be using to read, spend time with people, or work on creative/constructive projects. I also want to get my zine done by the end of Lent, so hopefully that will alleviate one of my main distractions.
I have a whole lot of pictures from my recent travels of visiting communities and I'm going to try to post those before wednesday (the beginning of lent).
It's really neat, because were doing lent as a community. The blog thing is just mine, but theres other things that were giving up and things we are going to be doing that we dont normally do as a community. Im excited about that. Solidarity is a good thing!
I dont really want to lose contact with people, though so lets try for more personal forms of communication, like letter writing and phone calls! If you insist on internet, I will be using email. You can write me at jchcskater@yahoo.com. message/email me if you want my mailing address.
What are other people giving up/doing this year for lent, if anything?
