has it been a year already? wow. at precisely 11:18am est, it will have been one year since i hopped on the blogging bandwagon and ridden it around like a poseur mofo. technically, this sites only seven months old. my first blog/journal (blurnal?) was on the perennial tween fav, xanga. ah xanga. *reminisces briefly* xanga. i didnt necessarily just decide one day to start up a blog. it was actually my friend jane who originally got me to sign onto xanga and start babbling incoherently. shes since been pretty lax with her journal, but me…its become a bit of therapy one entry at a time.
i should mention that while this is my first online journal, i actually had a similar journal in alot of regards (mentioned before) back in high school. it wasnt necessarily a wonder years-type blah blah journal…it was kind of a repository of random m3ntal notes to supplement my ridiculously awful memory. that journal lasted from january 23, 1996 to august 5, 1998 and actually contained, amongst other things: top 10 music lists, a burned out cornell acceptance letter, a delta phi bid, extensive religious sections, lots of doodles (including the summer post-it galleries), sticky pics, endless ranting, and the super shecret encoded rants. anyone who knew me back then probably saw me carry it around religiously, and knew i almost never let anyone read anything from it. my own grail diary…woot.
