I have a friend, actually a couple of friends, who have blogs on this site. I debated about starting one for a while. I really love writing but I stop writing in my journal for months at a time. Especially when my life is most exciting (for example: when I'm in school again after being away for a few years or I have a somewhat new boyfriend and a lot to say about it) I just seem to let the writing fall to the side. Truth be told, I want to be able to post comments on my friends blogs!!! But I also think I can really share my feelings in here, even though at the same time the idea that the world can read it kind of freaks me out.
I've started going back to the gym and now that I have an ipod and a bit of will, I am finding it way less painful. I want to be able to do a lot of hiking this summer and really enjoy it. Being in shape to do that is going to help a lot.
I really want to quit my job. I make a couple dollars over minimum wage and I have school to pay for and I want to visit family on the prairies this summer. I'll probably be able to swing it, but it would just be so much nicer if I was making more money doing something more related to what I want to be doing. Oh, what I want to be doing is steel fabrication. But the job I have now is so close to home, just a 5-7 min drive and I can take time off whenever I want. It's so flexible and I am so close with my coworkers. I'll probably just stay where I am for the summer.
I'm not much for ending these things. I do this when I write papers too. I just finish a thought and then leave it without summing up. Yay blogging!!
Welcome to the Blogosphere! About 'the world' reading your posts, don't fret. You can remain hidden in the background for as long as you want. Just stay out of the Blog groupings and you won't be bothered by unwanted readers. You can always make your blog private for added peace of mind.
ReplyDeleteI'm the same way. The days I have lots to tell, I don't write as much or at all. Either because I can't get to the computer or I'm too happy enjoying myself. Then there are days when I have plenty of time to blog and everything I wanted to say has flown out of my mind and left it empty.
I am glad to "see" that things are going well for you. About work just hang in there and when the time and mood is right you'll find a job more suitable to your needs and talents.
Miss you!
part of the pay it forward exchange is that you pay it forward, so you've got to post it on your blog.
