Phew, long time update
I haven't updated in a long while. I've come to lean more and more towards disliking the modern age of communication, and somehow, this livejournal is perpetuating that sensation. Ofcourse, I'm still updating it and alldat, irregularly...
The thing is that these things are so focussed on one's own life, all the little trivial things that make good conversation. If I would be talking about things in a social setting, I know the other side is interested, they are listening and I get direct input. On livejournal, all you can do is write a little summary of how things went, without clear intonation and expressions, little jokes are much harder to make and odds are that you only read this when you've nothing better to do, and thus are only half-interested.
Heh. The irony of me posting this is kind of large. Posting on your own livejournal that you don't like livejournal. Yay for principles. I'm sure I'll update soon -- for real that time.
