Czesław Niemen - Dziwny jest ten świat

Nov 26, 2011 14:02

After updating this journal, I often get this 'what the hell did I write it for?' feeling. Why did I feel like telling someone that I like this or that song or what I ate today or what my opinion on this or that matter is. Who cares about it, or especially, why do I care to share my opinions, tastes, thoughts... I know. I procrastinate. When I'm ( Read more... )

I often think about this exact same thing. And I don't even post just to avoid doing other things. I just post because for some reason I do want to share, no matter if anyone cares. It's like keeping a diary, perhaps? But then I always wonder why I bother.

Then I post anyway.

I just suck at reading through and commenting everything on my f-list...

By the way, remember that song you gave me to write Yohji/Omi about? Well, I just heard it from the radio the other day.

That was totally creepy.

This song here is interesting and pretty, I like it!

This is weird because I'm not like that in rl-- I don't like letting people into my world, telling them about my interests, tastes. I like talking with my friends or family members, but just from time to time. Generally, I'm a loner. I feel that things are more special for me when I keep them to myself. I generally find talking with people a bit pointless, telling each other about the things that interest us... I would rather enjoy those things in solitude than talk about enjoying them XD Yeah, I guess it could be like keeping a diary-- 'I post for myself, not for others'... But writing entries takes some time, I sometimes have to check a word or two in a dictionary, upload some images... Yeah, why I bother? XD

The song's origin is Finnish ^^ The song is Holly Dolly - Dolly Song (Ieva's Polka)... it comes from Loituma's song? Something like that.

I'm the same -- I'm not like that in real life at all. XD I've started talking more about my interests to people over the past few years, but in general, I don't really enjoy discussing with people. Journal is a little different, I'm not sure why. Maybe because it's the written format. I can edit my comment until I'm happy with. Not so when you need to talk!

Oh wow I didn't know that! Hmm, I wonder if the song was the Finnish one... I just don't think so because I think I would've realised it if I was hearing Finnish words. Maybe there are several versions of it though. No I'm pretty sure I didn't hear that original. I think the remix has just somehow surfaced in the radio now! It was still totally creepy to hear it all of a sudden in a fucking grocery store. So there I am with a package of bread in my hand, imagining Yohji and Omi dancing on the aisle... *lol*

I guess we can find a few more examples as for why talking on lj is better than in rl... Like, when I feel like letting people know I like some song, I can just post the video and those who want will check it out-- it's more comfortable than asking your rl friend to watch the video and you're not even sure if they are in the mood for it. I don't like socializing too much in rl, even when I'm in the mood for talking with people, bacause they usually want more and more of me-- you will meet with someone a few times, go to a party, and then they will keep calling and trying to talk you into going again and asking if there is something wrong with you if you don't want to go... XD I don't like getting too close with people. But I can be a clinging friendly retard when drunk so I may create an impression of a social, outgoing person to those who don't know better ( ... )
