I am unsure of what people usually write in this online journal, but as for me, I think I am going to use it as an excuse to write. If you know me, you know that I like to save a lot of junk. I make scrapbooks, take hundreds of photos, save ticket stubs, and really keep anything to help recreate a memory. After all, I believe life is all about asking the question 'Remember that one time...?' Simply put, life is about making memories. 50 years from now I want to sit in my rocker, realize that life has past by so fast it might has well been a dream, and then rummage through all the crap that I collected and say to myself 'Damn, I remember.' When I was younger I even kept a journal. Nothing of any importance was ever written in it. It was just filled with whatever activity I performed that day and barely contained information on any of my emotion or feelings. This is how I want this online journal to be. I don't want to complain to the public about my current and most likely petty problems. After all, everyone has his or her own life predicaments, which is why I believe best friends and Ben & Jerry's exist. However, some may use this online journal solely for that purpose; as an escape for life and for an unbiased friend to spill everything to. All the more power to those people. Simply, I like to write and write about anything that pops into my head during the day (sorry if some of it may be offensive. I don't write to please anyone except for myself). Like my other journal, I intend on printing this off after I finish and storing it along with the other boxes of precious keepsakes. But if it also provides entertainment for those who read these entries, then all the more better...
