I think i need to get back into livejournal. I've had about my entire threshhold of facebook and tumblr et al. journaling is far more productive and inspiring
consider this a return, untless facebook sucks me back in like a black hole, but anyways heres hoping
I mean summer just makes me want to write things down because that's about the only thing i feel comfortable doing. but when it's on facebook i'm not comfortable anymore. I have like 800 friends and you dont want to be THAT GUY that literally posts every 5 seconds everything they're doing or always be online.
there's little appreciation for writing on facebook... I see very few actual effort going into posts. Same with tumblr, most of the time it's just pushing a button. there is opportunity for discourse but it's somehow less personal to me then journals and forum posts.
But really, I am trying to encourage myself to write since I graduated especially. These days I get my best ideas when I'm in the shower or riding my bike. and when i say my best i mean the only ones i recognize regularly. and then of course i forget them because theres literally no way you can write something down in the shower or when you're on your bike
The main project that I need to focus on is getting the new strong babes album done by fall. strong babes is me and the other original members of baked goods plus a bunch of musician friends from brooklyn and suny purchase.
i dont know what the album is called yet and I know what I'd like it to be about but i'm not even halfway done yet. I have a bunch of stuff typed up, written down, and recorded. I'd really like it to be done for fall so I should probably start documenting it more. |
