My Only Journal
I don't keep a real journal, so this is where I record my thoughts. Some of it is pretty odd sounding, so read at your own risk :P
This is me
Okay. I've concluded that nobody is reading these things, so I'm going to take some time to get some things off my chest.
First, yes the date of my birth is correct on my profile. I am 26 and on an anime fan site. I feel better now that I've encountered more people who are closer to my age. I don't want it to affect people's perception of me, though. I chat with so many people who are nearly 10 years younger. I don't want my age to repel people. I have a hard enough time making real friends (I'm a shy introvert in a socially dominated world).
Next, I am not part of any particular style or look. Sure, I went through my outcast, goth wannabe, drab days. This is what psychlogists call forclosure; accepting an identity without thinking it through. Now I'm just me: I like to wear black and dark colors, I like pendants and bracelets and stuff, and I hate denim (when its on me). I'm still not in the place I want to be with my style, but I believe I will be there eventually. I just need a little more courage.
Third, I am a university student studying for a career change. I've been a land surveyor, an animator, and a customer service agent. All of which sucked, particularly that last one. I want to be a pharmacist. Its super hard to get into, because they allow in 90 people out of thousands of applicants per year. You need really good grades to even be considered. I get good grades, but there are always at least 90 people who get better ones, right? Its tough.
Well, I think thats enough for now. Expressing oneself is a step to escaping one's introversion, wouldn't you say?
