Question of the Day

[ayoub]

How much of your life gets written about in your LJ?

Most of it. But not so much that people think they know me better than they actually do. So I leave out some personal stuff.

I write more of a who I am kind of journal, my thoughts, feelings, observations, etc. I am not a this is my day, this is when I woke up, this is when I did laundry, blah, blah, blah kind of journaler. My actual day to day life, probably only gets written about at most 25%, probably more like 15% of the time.

Very little, in fact. From time to time, many details of a specific event/day, but the truth of my life? Very, very little.

[katamphigorical.livejournal.com]

Approximately 10% of what goes on in my brain and about 1.5 times that percentage of what i consider noteworthy events.

If i wrote any more about what goes on in my life/brain, i'd probably lose friends who think i'm too surreal or insane for their tastes. o_0

Hmmm, quite a bit I guess, albeit in friends only mode.

Varies based on topic. There are some things I just don't/won't discuss.

[delphaicdragon.livejournal.com]

Actual events? About 60% or so I'd guess. Maybe more.

Thoughts and feelings? Like, honest to goodness down and dirty stuff? Maybe 10%. It's just really hard to put things down so that they make sense.

sometimes too much

sometimes not enough

somedays i think of walking away and leaving it behind

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Too much? When? :P

Leaving it behind? Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!

[donnickcottage.livejournal.com]

100% of it, much to reader's chagrin.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Not to my chagrin!

[xjenavivex.livejournal.com]

you sure about the latter?

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Privacy is a good thing :)

I like the "who I am" journalling... It's a much better way to get to know someone...

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Why is that, do you think?

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

POSITIVE!

[xjenavivex.livejournal.com]

sometimes it feels like i spend too much time here. let too many people in. say too much about things that are hard to put into words to start with. my friendships are real. i care for those on my list. i spend time making sure they are ok and trying to make them smile.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

But... but... I LIKE surreal and insane!

:P

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Yeah... I do that too... But while it's an addiction, it's also led me to meet so many great people, yourself included :D

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

You definitely chronicle yourself well :)

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Privacy is a good thing... :)

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

I've found that the more often you write your thoughts and feelings, the easier it is to write them down...

[xjenavivex.livejournal.com]

but i wonder am i really just doing it for myself. i comment and i wonder if that matters. im not thinking about you or a few others. there are some that arent so close, though, and i wonder if the time i invest actually adds up to anything worthwhile for them.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

There is nothing wrong with feeling good about being a good friend... *hug*

[ccupguy.livejournal.com]

Thanks.
