I still keep real journals and diaries but I rarely ever read back on them so I know what you mean by Pandora's Box. I'm too scared to throw away those memories, but I'm also too scared to go back through them, probably for fear of embarrassing myself with my silly thoughts. I think it would be boring if everyone knew the right answers. Making mistakes and learning is what makes life interesting.

I always tried keeping journals and I never could. Too ADD or something. I had something amusing to tell you and I forget.

the last real journal i kept was when i was twelve, and i refused to actually call it a journal, it was a DIARY. it had a lock and key and everything. i haven't met a single person who hasn't looked back on their past and thought they were mostly stupid about everything they did. happy looks good on you!

I like to hide it so I don't have to do it that often. LISTEN. I WAS VERY, VERY DISTRESSED.

It's almost scary how much our lives mirror each other, except mine seems to be less complex than yours. Aaahahahahaha. Thanks Eddie bb.
