one.
I pretty much have been tackling the idea about actually staying with lj and moving journals. It was a tough one, guys. I've got to say. Over my hiatus, if there is anything I have learned, it's that spending 3 hours a night on lj is no way to live. Not that I even had time to log on, but still. The point is, the first half of 08 was bang on. I balanced my life with important things. The second half wasn't. I spend way too much time on lj. And as much as I adore this site and you guys...well, you know. I don't even really have to say it. Since when can one, seriously, compare the online world to real life?
I don't mean to insult anyone, if you are the type to built up your whole life around lj and online communities. This is just how I feel.
Obviously, I decided to stay. I clicked the 'post' button many times, ready to type out a long entry explaining my leaving lj. When I think about it now, I realize I don't need lj the way I need in the 9th or 10th grade. Even if I am less sure of who I am now. But...the friendships I've made are worth staying for, and I don't know how it would feel not to have you guys in my life. I made this journal after Jane went on a rampage of looking for city usernames, and hey! I love Winnipeg! So there we go. Looks like I'm sticking around for just a little while longer.
