I’ve been journal-ing..  omg.  me.  journal.  haha

Okay, I probably should explain.  I am not very good at keeping diaries/journals/blogs etc.  I usually write a few days and then leave it sitting for a while.  a long while.  I have to admit, I’ve had my good times and bad times with this particular blog.  But never do I manage to last very long with a written journal.  guess I just dont make the time.

But Im going off on a bit of a tangent.  back to topic.  I’ve been journal-ing.  and I have to admit Im really liking it.  I decided that I would journal my final 3 months here in Aus, because its a really busy time, and knowing me I would forget things and what not.  So I decided that if I journal-ed I could probably keep track of things a little better and also have a record of the journey that Im taking. 

I think Im really enjoying it because I’ve taken a very different approach to what I have done previously.  Ive always written diaries with the mind set that it is a record of my emotions and the events that happen in my life.  This time around Im really just writing anything.  So far I’ve written an explanation for having a journal, done a few lists of things I have to do before I go, things I want to do in japan, what Im looking for out of life there, and then a few entries about just whats going through my head.  Oh, and Im decorating it with cut outs, pictures, and stickers.  And I think that it is going to be a really interesting record when its finished.  And probably something that I wouldnt be too adverse to letting other people read.  not that Im going to invite it or anything.

downside for you, I probably wont be writing in here all that often for a while, since it will probably be all written down in the journal
