19 Jan 2010 (retro-post)


So here I am, already browsing, browsing, browsing, the fish in the sea. Did I mention that I set this account up before I feel asleep/as I was passing out? I did it on my phone therefore, my initial profile was total crap--no description nor photos. Come on, I did it on my iPhone.


To quote, my profile originally read, About Me: "I'm not ready to do this.I'm not ready to do this. I'm not ready to do this.I'm not ready to do this.I'm not ready to do this.I'm not ready to do this. I'm doing this from my iPhone and it's not fun."


Brilliant, right? Not to mention, my apprehension in taking up this project.


Pure impulse, sounds like so much of my unplanned life and my past pseudo-relationships if you really must know--seemed like a good idea at the time. Anyhow, I'm realizing that if I really want to give this a try, I've got to actually put some attention into the process. As L.Lo reflected--the process has a lot to do with self-reflection and analyzing what it is that I actually want--like academic work, like working out, like grief work--all these processes demand a great deal of the focused self. I reckon I ought to put some good effort in if I am to take it, and to be taken, seriously.

More profile progress: Handful of photos (what I really need is to do a glamor shot photo shoot, L.Lo, you got some mascara and a camera?!), list of interests, vagueness about my career and degrees, but I still included that cover-all co-out: "I originally began drafting this on my iPhone before I realized that I need to put some major effort into it if I expect to get anything out of it. More to come..."


And there it is, for now. Until then, I dream of furthering this social experiment and possibly some interesting experiences. Something to write about, at least, right? Eggs, baskets, blogs.
