making a list
there seems like there is so much to do in my life and so little time. i find that making lists and checking things off is the best way for me to cope. otherwise, i turn into an oozing bucket of stress and anxiety. fortunately, i have learned from the past experiences. going to uni, studying, work, interviews, homework, house renovations, baby preparation, cooking meals and a little quite time all before i go to sleep is enough to wear anyone down. all this, let alone finding time to sit down on the blog or email and catch up with current events, is enough to drive a normal person insane!!
how do some of you people do it? blog all day long, everyday. i figure you either have stress free lives, or sit in front of a computer for work while trying to avoid your work. am i right or wrong?
last night, i went the old fashion way, and after blogging, i actually sat down and picked up my journal. go figure. i used to be so faithful and pedantic about writing in my journal. then i got hooked on this blog thing, originally to put some of my creative work out there, but that has turned into an egocentric desire to be the center of peoples attention, even for just a moment, and to have that gratification when somebody leaves a response. (are you with me? are you even tempted to leave a comment? some people say they read this site from time to time, but leave no comment. why not?) yet, last night i wrote in my journal, and all i can tell you is this- it felt so good. it is pure freedom on the page that i don't get to experience on a computer. i can draw, i can glue things in, i can even write down a few words, that make no sense at all. if i want to make them public, i can rewrite them here on this site. but that seems like alot of work and i may as well, come up with something new. am i rambling? yes.
i will get off my trip, now.
in other news, naomi robson was arrested in indonesia. fuck her and her over sensationalized journalism that only breeds hate and ignorance leading to racists discrimination in this country. australia can certainly do without her sort of rhetoric. indonesia can keep that ugly bitch.

funny! i feel and do the same with my blog/journal...teehee totally relate. ahhh does it feel good to get a comment!? teeheeeeeee
i feel the same about FINDING TIME to blog. i think about blogging, but it's usually when my hands are in the dishwater or pulling weeds... neither of which are very conducive to typing...

i love seeing your journal sitting around. or even you writing in it way more. i have more of a tendency to not bug ya when you are journalling compareds to when you are on the computer bloggin' away. go figure. more respect for the pen and paper? you could take photos of stuff in your journal and post on your blog when you can't be bothered to redo/type stuff for the blog? i'd leave you alone more. heee x
