Fresh

This is new.

After shutting down my account on Xanga, I've realized that I still needed a place to write down thoughts. It was a bit difficult making the decision to permanently erase everything I had on that account. As a member of it since 2003, I spent a lot of time using that blog site. Aside from being just a place to write down things I did during that day, complaints, or embedded photos and video, it was good a crutch that I needed to use for myself from time to time.

Why then...
It could of been the little things about Xanga that bothered me-- like the lost of community. A part of me probably felt like erasing it because it simply just wasn't me. You don't want to have someone else reading that when you're not around anymore. Maybe I was ashamed of it, too. Heh, I'm either really unsure of my real reason, or I'm not letting the truth out!




Anyways, I'm not sure how consistent I'll be with this blog. Right now, I can say that I won't have a problem with not hiding anything on these pages. I had to be careful and conscious about leaking too much information out on Xanga. Eventually, it didn't feel like a nice crutch to lean on anymore.

Why not just write in a personal journal, and not on a world wide website? To an extent, this counts as an accountability option in my book.
