Now, I may be (insert that one chicken/egg metaphor that I always say wrong here) buttttt I will be blogging until graduation. That means...wait for it...wait for it. I BLOGGED FOR MY WHOLE SENIOR YEAR! Which was my goal. I mean how many of you readers (who reads blogs any more, maybe 3 people? does it matter - no.) or former readers can say that? Uh, none. Not even Jarred, who started this blog this technically before I publicized the hell out of my blog back in September.
I'm really proud of myself for sticking to my blog(s). Sure, I've gone weeks without blogging, but I over-blogged plenty of times and it's even.
Every birthday until I was 15, I received an object. Spiral, bound, homemade, personalized with a photo, leather, plastic, under lock and key, shiny, covered in fabric. Diary, journal, secret keeper - you name it, I had it. (In fact, I wish I still had that one diary where you had a password on it. Gah.) The point is, every single birthday I would sit down with my new journal and go "This is the year.". This would be the year that I would stick to the plan, follow through and write in my journal consistently. Well I was in the lie tribe growing up apparently since I never managed to do it. I would write on my birthday night talking about all my new presents, my friends, what grade I was in, my teacher/school, what I like to do. You know, so the journal could get to know me? Screw logic. Three days was as far as I could get back then. Now look at me. A whole school year. Yay. :]
On my that's so true, tr blog, I've posted 259 blogs. On my i know i saw a light in you blog, I've posted 115. That's 374 total, which is more than enough for one blog per day for an entire year. Holy crap.
It was so worth it. I caused drama on accident several times, I caused drama on purpose a few times, I whined, I cried, I deleted about 10 blogs because they were ridiculous, I was called a cunt via comments, I was told a lot of really rude things via comments actually, I posted photos, videos, links, my dreams, my experiences, my ~true~ feelings. It was a nice outlet. It was never about other people reading my blog (even though there was a time where I was getting 100 hits a day, and a lot of people joined blogger after the new year...), it was for me in so many ways. <3 blog.
I didn't mean to write so much about a trivial topic, but I did. It's done. And I'm not deleting any of it.
Maybe one day I will make this blog into a physical copy so I can keep it forever. Then I can say, "Hey look - this is all from my senior year of high school!" to my grandkids and they can say "grandma, who the heck is TR?"
