So it seems I haven't been using LJ, not having posted there since early this year. I've been recording my life in other ways, through images, GPS logs, video, chat logs and email. It's not the same as keeping a journal, though it is a record. How much can you record about your life without using language? How do memories linger without it?
Still Alive
Apr. 12th, 2010 02:03 pmIt's getting close to a year since I created this journal and I haven't been using it. I still use LJ and am no longer a paid member there; I don't like the way it's changed but haven't been so disappointed as to stop using LJ.
This is more of a token entry to stay that I still exist. That maybe I will use this journal more. Or maybe I'll use my own website more. The past year I feel overwhelmed by work, that I don't have enough time to do the things I enjoy. Maybe I'll take more control of my life and then liven up my journals a bit more too.

I wonder why I stared this journal since I already use LJ so much. I like to record things for posterity, or at least have things recorded, though at the same time I don't. I don't want to be constantly clinging to the past, though I like to learn from it and move on. It's nice to be able to have fragments of the past recorded without having to worry about them. LJ seems to work, though it's not something I intend to use forever. It might die and this is a bit of a backup. It seems a lot of what people post here is the same as on LJ. I don't intend to start posting on both anytime soon, so I recommend reading my LJ instead for now. I do plan to start using my own website eventually, though I haven't got around to it.
