but why?

I have never been able to keep a diary or notebook longer than a few days, mostly i think because i am a huge fan of digital images. unless i had the dedication to print out photos i had taken that day or week, i really had no interest in keeping track of my comings and goings.

I am now far away from all of my friends (aka i made the conscious decision to move home after university) and am no longer surrounded by my closest confidants. all of my small and significant thoughts are generally left unsaid and this is harrowing for a talker like myself. people would generally recommend calling or regularly texting loved ones to keep in contact and remain sane, but i am exhausted by the idea of contact exclusively through my phone. in addition to this personal resentment for facetime, i have also decided to delete my social media accounts (save for letterboxed and goodreads) and thus lack the daily slog through feeds.

therefore i have come to the conclusion that i absolutely must create my own online diary which i can use to update those whom i choose to share the link with. these posts will generally be concerning my brand new life and hopefully my future travels and adventures. in addition to rambling about my life, i will be posting pictures which do not merit a discussion, as well as movies and books which i think do.

so if you are reading this, hello friend. i am going to write this in the style of a bemused third person narrator because i think its funny. will this last more than a few weeks of initial obsession and interest? who knows. certainly not me. but it has already been extremely fun creating a little website and speaking like myself.
