well, creating a homepage is all good and nice, but flooding the net with your daily life is just a bit exaggerated. i don't read them, i don't have one, and i guess i never will.
 
yeah something like that, that's one reason I created this thread. I think those things can be all good, but totally not for the whole world to read, just for the one who writes it. not to mention I (okay, not me but I heard it) have bad experiences with them. there was one classmate of mine who made one, and in that he just wrote bad things about everyone, even about those so called best friends, and I still don't know why. after all someone found out the address, and it created a big mess, realising he only says he likes this and that person, and talked shit about them when they were not there
 
i think it's related to all that tv crap, big brother like.. people want to be publicised nowadays. they seem to be losing their sense of privacy.
 
since it's difficult to talk to real people, we are discovering it's better to put our thoughts online... i find difficult to know new people around me... anathema would say "i feel all alone in a crowded room".

i've got an opeth italian blog anyway... http://opeth.splinder.com
 
i don't like blogs. i had one some months ago but only to show my pics on it cause i couldn't make my own site =] now i've learned how to make my site and i do not use it... i would never write about my feelings in blog and then people write comments and advices...
 
i've been using livejournal for my blog site for more than 1.5 years now, i quite like it since i have my close friends there and i may post friends only entries which can only be read by them.. i have some more blog-alike accounts on other sites which i just use for fun and dont post anything important.. i also like to read the blogs of the people i usually meet/talk..
 
whats exciting about it, knowing everything from someone even before meeting him in real .. Is that what our future is meant to be? :confused:

I talked to my boyfriend last night about me going away. He said he tries not to think about it. I figured that. I asked him what he wanted to do. He said he couldn't make a decision right now because it's still almost two months away. He said when I actually start packing and getting ready to go, that it will hit him. I already know what he's thinking though. He's going to break up with me. But of course, he's not going to tell me that now. He'll tell me before I leave. That way, I'll be so busy moving into the dorms and doing other Incoming Freshman activities, that it will be easier for me to move on. It won't be though. It won't be easy at all. Just thinking about it makes me cry. I won't be able to get over him for a while. And I know that's what he's thinking of doing, because I have other friends in relationships who have talked to their guy about this. The guy answered right away that he wanted to try long distance. Breaking up wasn't even an option for them. If he has to actually think of what he wants to do, then I know he's not in this relationship as much as I am. There's only one option I'd choose, and that's long distance. But I guess the decision is up to him now. :-(

I know I talk about my boyfriend a lot lately. Sorry. It's just that he's always on my mind. :) He's so great. We're doing good again. The only thing I need to talk to him about now is college. I'm going 4 hours away for college and living on campus. We need to discuss if we're going to try a long distance thing. I'd like to try it. I already registered for my first semester classes and I know what times they'll be. I'll be able to come home for the weekends on Fridays after my last class at 2:00. Of course, we need to balance it. I can't be the one to always drive back. He needs to be able to drive up there to visit me sometimes. Our schedules kinda clash though, and he's looking into being a bartender, which means he'd be working on weekends. I'll probably be working during the week. That means, if he were to come up and visit me during the week, I'd be busy with class and work and not get to see him much. And if I come home to visit during the weekend, he'll be busy with work. I'd get to see him during the day though. These are some of the things we need to discuss. I've casually mentioned me going away, but he doesn't seem to want to discuss it. He changes the topic. But today I'm going to tell him that we can't delay the discussion any more. I don't want to wait until the day before I leave to discuss what we're doing. If he had his way, that's how it would be.

Well, yesterday was quite interesting. My boyfriend and I went out to eat at a nice resturaunt. We sat down, figured out what we wanted to eat, then talked for a bit. As we talked, I noticed this nasty looking guy staring at me from the table behind my bf. I scooted over a bit so that my bf was blocking his view.

When the nasty looking guy and the person he was with were done eating, he came over to our table and said, "Hi, my name is *****. I noticed you two when you came in. You make a very cute couple. Are you both atleast 18?" I said yes. Then he continued, "Well, if you're interested in making some instant cash, call me up. We're looking for couples like you..." yadda yadda... I forget exactly what he said. He gave us a business card thing, then left. Basically, the business card was for a porn company. He was interested in having me and my bf star in a porno. Um, let me think about that for a minute, NO!

Ok, now in the future I wouldn't mind making a "home video", because no one else would watch it and it would be deleted right away. But I would never make a video like that and post it on the internet for a measly $1,000. Give me $50,000 and maybe we have a deal. Or, let me wear a ski mask or something so that nobody can see my face. lol.

I saw my boyfriend tonight. While I didn't bring up everything that was bothering me, I did mention a few things. That's better then nothing. But I guess I really was just PMSing over a few of the things, because I just got my period today. Thank goodness. It was almost 2 weeks late and I was getting kinda worried. Even though we haven't had sex and I'm still a virgin, it is still possible for me to get pregnant. Like, if he were to have some semen on his hand/finger and not know it, then finger me. While highly unlikely, it is still possible. We've been pretty careful about all those kinds of things though. So, yeah. We had a good talk tonight and I know things will start back on track again. :)
 
I think maybe in theory, it a neat thing, but I can't imagine the horror of it in reality.

And I had no idea what it was until I read this.
