this isn't a journal at all

Dear Journal,

What the fuck? Whose idea was it to put a journal online for everyone to see? As far as I can tell, no one reveals their deep dark secrets to a journal just so that everyone can find them out. If I was housing some heavy inner feelings that I didn't want anyone to know about, I certainly wouldn't be putting them up on Livejournal.com.

...actually I might. No point in bottling things up.

I realized that I think about things all the time, but I never get anywhere with them. I never figure anything out or come to any conclusions or anything. I tend to think without a purpose.

The way I see it, if I were going to come to a conclusion about something, then I would have come to it already. Therefore, thinking about it more wouldn't really get me anywhere. Since I'm also stubborn as hell, thinking heavily about something is rarely going to change my mind. It usually just ends up making me angry.

It seems like a stupid thing in the first place. Why on earth would you debate with yourself? The only person you could possibly prove to be wrong is yourself, and I'd rather not convince myself that I'm wrong, because I'm not. Ever.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not claiming that anyone SAYS their livejournal is an actual journal. The name just isn't particularly fitting. I'm all about the LJ. It's been entertaining me for years (like 2 of them), and I like to think that everyone I know reads it, even though a select few choose to comment. I know you love reading about my life. I'm very deep and sensual. I understand if you want to kiss me. It's okay. Shhhh.....

Now go away, I have a bagel to eat.

P.S. Thank you to whoever decided to scream in their songs first. BNO, Senses Fail, Scars to Prove, Underoath, Hawthorne Heights, etc....yeah, thanks.
