WOW... I feel so special. I had no idea that "blogging" was the same thing as "online journaling"...
I don't know what it was that first attracted me to the thought of letting people read my thoughts. Maybe it was the fact that I was never really one for verbally expressing myself, so instead turned to journal writing... In my journals I could yell at whomever I wanted, tell someone how much I liked them, and just write out how my life in general was panning out. Maybe I turned to blogging because my life at college has pretty much become sitting at my computer and doing artwork, writing papers, or sending emails....so typing a journal is so much more natural to me now than sitting down and writing one freehand... Typing is faster, and when I have little time to spare, but need to let it out, it allows me to do so.
What I love about blogging is that you can find so many people with similar interests to yourself, and make friends... even though you don't physically hang out with these other bloggers, there is still someone to talk to with similar experiences, lifestyles, etc. It's always a comfort to find somebody like that...
Anyways... paper writing awaits me... as does my lack of sleep... so until then.
