Dear Daddy
So, i've had this journal for a long while now. I've never felt the need to make the whole thing friends only. I am very well aware that it's on the internet and that EVERYONE can read it. That's why I don't write everything in it. I am aware that my dad has access to the internet, and there are many many things I don't write about here, not just because of him, but because i don't feel the need for EVERYONE, including him, to know certain things. I am very concious about what I write and don't write in here.
So, that being said, it comes down to a matter of respect. I mean, I'm in college now. I'm getting ready to go into the real world. In other words -- give me some space! I know that I may not tell you every aspect of my life, but that's because I'm pretty sure you could care less what I had for lunch today. Both my parents have been breathing down my neck for as long as I remember, and they can't even step back now that I'm ready to become my own person.
All I ask is for a little respect. And, for me, reading my lj so frequently that you notice I have another trip planned less than an hour after I post about it shows a disrepect to me and my privacy. I'll tell you about it when I'm ready. Believe it or not, there might be REASONS why I don't tell you things. Such as, i wanted to be able to see your reactions when i said "I have a boyfriend," something I've never really gotten to say to yous. But, no, you don't think about that. You just think about... crap, i don't even know. Okay. So, what I'm saying is:
I knew you read my journal. I was somewhat okay with it. But your lack of respect in not giving me my space, my privacy and my own place to vent bugs me. And thus you loose the privledge of reading my lj. Sorry daddy dearest.
From now on, this lj is friends only.
