I want to be added. Don't let what other people think bother you. If what you are feeling at the time is what you are writing, then people can go fuck them selves if they don't like it. that is why it is called a journal. You get to write YOUR thoughts in it. I hope your Friday turns out good. My Friday has been great:)
It's a combonation of reasons why I'm locking the journal... it's because I'm misunderstood most of the time. I have a lot of friends who read this who don't have LJs, so I feel bad for them, but I just can't handle being misunderstood, having people take offense to what I write and/or criticizing me on what I write. Like you said, it's meant for me to get thoughts of my mind... and I don't want this theraputic process to be interupted for the wrong reasons.
My friday has been a roller coaster... glad to hear you are doing well though :)
I don't have a livejournal but I enjoy reading your candid and honest thoughts on everyday things. Just remember: it's your journal and you can write about whatever you want. If people don't like it, they don't have to read it. I don't understand why this concept is so hard for people to get...if you don't like something you see on TV, don't watch it, etc.

Hey Christina,
It's Emilia and I read your blog sometimes... I understand your woes of people getting offended by what you write - i have 2 deterioted friendships because my feelings were misunderstood. I've actually said, "I'm letting you people into my diary - can I see yours and see what it says? Then we can have a discussion about feelings on the same topics."
To people who have blogs/journals ... I say we have the most guts. We care about voicing our opinions but not enough to advertise - what's wrong with that?
I will get a livejournal account, actually, I think I already do, I just can't remember the username and password! When I find it, I want to be added.
ps...completely unrelated but I liked the holiday issue of inside...I'm moving back home after this year so I'll be at your service for any writing endeavours that you need!
