*waves hello*
Long time, no update. Truth is... my life hasn't been very exciting lately. Or.. well... there's been a lot that's happened, but nothing that I really wanted to express on here at the time, because it just seemed like the same ol' drama.
That and... I must admit... I've been devoting more of my time to myspace. Now, before you start 'booing' me, allow me to continue. I have more... interaction on Myspace than I do here. Most of my myspace friends are people I know well and see often. Most of you all... I've never even met. Nothing personal... just... as my friends here began abandoning LJ... I started to feel a little abandoned too. Not in a egocentric kinda way, just at times it feels as if I'm talking to, well, empty cyberspace. Not that I write merely for your entertainment, sometimes it's good to just write for the sake of expression.
Then, eventually, I would start an update, only to erase or make it private, because I couldn't effectively communicate what I wanted to say. Even now it feels difficult to express what I want to say. That, or I began to write much more seriously about this topic or another while forsaking the every day events that seem so mundane. Lately it just seems to be the same old story with my life... and who wants to read a re-run??
But then, LJ offers something that Myspace doesn't. It gives you the ability to express yourself fully and completely... and know that your friends list probably won't be diminished as a result. Granted, I may not know most of you personally.. but you've kept me around for a reason too. Sure, myspace offers a blog where people can give you kudos or whatever... and it may be read 10 times more than this will ever be. But it doesn't give you that, unpretentious outlet to just... be honest with one another... and yourself for that matter.
So.... perhaps I'll try to keep this thing updated once again. I can't promise you anything very new and exciting... but at least it'll be honest and introspective.
