Well, it does have the word "live" in the title so I would say whatever is going on in your life, whatever makes you glad to live. The memes and other small things have mostly died off from what I've seen, many of the journals that posted them almost exclusively have departed for other social sites that tend to be the fad of the moment... so I can see why many people take that lack of activity as a dying of this journal site. But it really isn't, there is still plenty to read and plenty of new people to meet.
If I were you, I'd write things that will surprise you or pull at your memories a year or more from now when you might stumble across while feeling nostalgic about old entries. There are times when I read old entries on mine or others and I am shocked I barely remember reading or experiencing whatever was written down, it jogs the old spirits, it's a glimpse of who I or others were back then (sorta reminds me of that 'letter to your future self' they had me write in Junior High for my graduating High School self); it can be fun and sometimes hurtful to remember people from the past I may no longer know or know where they've gone but it is never a waste of time.
Write what you want and what you find worth putting down here and what keeps you interested in this site; all the people in the world may leave your journal but it's only really dead when you leave it. It's a journal, it's meant to be looked back upon many times from now and into the unforseen future.
