50....

Woot! I never thought I'd make it...

I never kept a journal or a diary as a child, but I did enjoy writing. Usually you would find little bits of insight into my life on a scrap piece of paper or in the middle of an essay I happened to be writing for school.

So when I started this blog, I figured I would be done with it pretty quickly, after-all it's just a high tech diary...sans the 'I <3 Billy' drawings and scribbles you would, I assume, normally find in some girls diary. I mean really I can even stick this between the mattresses of my bed if I wanted to (YAY for laptops). But alas, my high-tech diary has been more than scribbles and drawings of a lonely little girl; its been my outlet to get me through the crap. Its been a way to catalogue the ups and downs, its so easy to go back in time now and read exactly how I was feeling. One click of a mouse button; and I am transported back to a good day or a bad day. And another click can bring me back to reality and allow me to reflect on the past.

The best part of this blog though, is that it talks back...That's right, I really do read the comments that are posted, though I don't always respond. But how many diary's did you keep as a kid that would talk back to you? None. I get so excited when I write a new blog, whether it be a rant or some self revelation that I felt the need to jot down; and I go away for a day or 2 and comeback to find that my 'dairy' has an opinion of what I wrote!!!

So now 50 posts and 11 followers in, I feel like I should keep doing this. This blog has gotten me through a lot so far, and knowing that I am going to have some pretty big, life-changing situations come up, I think it will only serve to help me more.

I <3 ???....:)
