Do you keep a journal?
 
I started two days ago.

✌➬ 07.01.2008 12:17 AM

I do, I write on it, every couple of months.

Cantankerous 07.01.2008 12:18 AM

no.

pop punk will eat itself 07.01.2008 12:26 AM

Off and on. My life isn't that interesting at the moment, so no journal entries for the past few months.

Anngella 07.01.2008 01:04 AM

A LiveJournal because I'm so hip.

atsonicpark 07.01.2008 01:16 AM

My entries are half-nonsense/half-parody but with little sprinkled facts about my life thrown in, with the occassional thoughts on the news and shit.

"Similarly, I would rather listen to 10,000 fuzzy guitars for 16 hours a day than sit through a single 1-second Miles Davis trumpet brapp."

Worth reading if you lke me a lot I guess.

viewtiful_alan 07.01.2008 01:18 AM

I mostly write about the things I hear and see from people at schoola and overall around. And other times I just write aobut thoughts or cool lines I think of, rather than merely about my day.

Not very linear.

alteredcourse 07.01.2008 02:32 AM

I always have , and they are always in a very frustration ian curtis type , about the bitching between two worlds, a limbo . One that has existed since i was born and what i look forward to until the strong arm wins over the left arm . Pointless and shallow it is for sure .

SYRFox 07.01.2008 02:58 AM

No, but I wonder if I won't start one

pbradley 07.01.2008 03:09 AM

I keep a diary where I record everything I can about my latest crushes. <///3

Dr. Eugene Felikson 07.01.2008 03:21 AM

I have a journal. Some of it is linear, other parts are abstract, some pages are flooded with song concepts and poetry and a good chunk are some rather half-assed short stories.

I like my journal(s).

acousticrock87 07.01.2008 03:24 AM

Dream diaries fuck up my life. I can't explain how, but lucid dreaming is the worst idea ever. I permanently feel like shit during the day, and it's not that great.

Cantankerous 07.01.2008 03:25 AM

lucid dreaming is wonderful
i've had some bizarre ones lately

acousticrock87 07.01.2008 03:26 AM

I can't do it. It makes reality too confusing and hazy.

Death & the Maiden 07.01.2008 03:31 AM

I keep a journal. But I only ever write in it if something significant happens. I haven't written in it for about a month.

I don't know you but if you can't dig on some miles than what the fuck!K!K!

Toilet & Bowels 07.01.2008 04:52 AM

i have done before and i might do again. usually i use it as a means to clear my head of crap, rather than as documentation of my day to day activities.

atsonicpark 07.01.2008 04:52 AM

it's.. uh.. a joke.

jonathan 07.01.2008 04:57 AM

you don't like miles, don't bullshit. I can see through you like a one-way transparancy mirror.

atsonicpark 07.01.2008 04:59 AM

um... okay.

You're the expert!

atsonicpark 07.01.2008 05:04 AM

I could show you everything, but I'd rather show you that everything means nothing.

jonathan 07.01.2008 05:13 AM

Holy Shit!

Quote For The Yearbook!

your a fucking wang.

atsonicpark 07.01.2008 05:17 AM

I wrote something mean here but I'm going to delete it.

I'd rather just let the fact that you used "WANG" as an insult speak for itself.

sarramkrop 07.01.2008 05:34 AM

No.

PAULYBEE2656 07.01.2008 05:46 AM

no i dont keep a journal or diary.. ive got a pretty good memory tho!

terriblecanyons 07.01.2008 09:17 AM

I have a livejournal... because my inner 12 year old tells me I have to.

Derek 07.01.2008 09:41 AM

I have a livejournal for my writings, but nothing on my personal life.

Danny Himself 07.01.2008 09:44 AM

I will start keeping one when my life becomes interesting enough.

!@#$%! 07.01.2008 10:03 AM

fuck no

i'm leaving no incriminating evidence behind

samuel 07.01.2008 10:09 AM

I've had a livejournal for five or so years. I like it because it's neat to hear about what I did a year ago on this very day or five years ago, or how my first day of high school was. All my buddies used to have one, but for the past couple years, my friends' page has been pretty empty.

exactly. plus.. i'm highly private.

as far as online journals... i can't think any of my thoughts are actually worth that.

schizophrenicroom 07.01.2008 11:12 AM

i keep two little moleskine cahiers for writing stuff, but my real honest journal is no longer being used.

cryptowonderdruginvogue 07.01.2008 11:14 AM

no.

Understandable.

I was talking to a teacher, and she was telling me how she went to the beach that weekend and burned all her journals and diaries because her brother had died, and even though he wanted his journals burned, no one did it, and her family was fighting over who got them, or whether they should be destroyed.

My journal will really be just to clear my head, or to get whatever thoughts I need to get down on paper. I won't do it day to day, but whenever I feel I have something worth writing down.

Yeah, right.:)

Everyneurotic 07.01.2008 11:52 AM

i had one for about six months when i was like 15, it was weird.

i think maybe having one right now would do me good.

!@#$%! 07.01.2008 12:33 PM

well if were gonna count "notes", i have all kinds of notepads & notebooks lying around the house, in my pockets, bike bags, briefcases, the car, the office, etc.

but those are not a "journal", in any shape or form.

"dear diary--" fuck that!

!@#$%! 07.01.2008 12:40 PM

 

my favorite ones. and grid paper rules.

atsonicpark 07.01.2008 12:59 PM

I just read something that said "jandek's albums are like a diary of his life."

That's one crazy diary.

Glice 07.01.2008 12:59 PM

I write for at least 30 minutes every day. Not quite a journal, more some sort of word-monstrosity. I did have a pseudonymous blog for about a month, but I started to hate the person I'd created (she got a lot of divorced males attention), so she died [was deleted].
