I think I have a lot of animosity towards Livejournal, myspace, blogs and etc.
It has become an ambiguous way for people to say what they really mean/feel, without actually saying what they mean/feel. I've been guilty of it too by saying things such as "I had a date" but not saying who the date is..and other things I'm sure. We want to be honest and we say we write in here for ourselves as means of meditation and self expression, but really it's like writing letters to other people, or portraying ourselves in ways that are not truely accurate.
Like, if I wrote how I really thought without processing it and making it witty, my journal would be a very different script to read, because most people only write things when they need to vent.
A lot of my feelings have been so honest- I think everyone of you who has read this can tell when I am really hurt or when I had a good day- and when I'm being retarded and writing a stupid blog, that really is me. That's me with my friends and family and that's just my personality. I hate reading people's things and I know that person and I know that's not them.
Here's another reason I'm mad at Livejournal. I remember in like..9th grade it caused SO much drama..it still does- I mean come on- Lucas look at your journal- you can't write ANYTHING without SOMEONE taking offense to what you have to say unless you keep it as impersonal as possible.
WTF is the point of all of this computer shit? Does it really keep people connected because I don't think it does. I think it offends, frustrates and gives false advertisement about who and what people really are.
The point is to give yourself a personality and to share that with a lot of people that are different than you, and I still want to do that- I feel like I have a lot of stuff to say- about my insights and my bullshit and my good times-
I'm not going to use this as a means to do anything except document my memories- which means I'm going to be fucking honest.
so- im going friends only- again. ♥
