Purpose

So apparently I was confronted by a certain someone who told me everyone in my suite knows about this site, (something I already knew) just so I wouldn't write things thinking they wouldn't be read. Well, I wouldn't have put it in my profile if I didn't want people to read it. I'm perfectly aware of what I'm doing. If something is bothering me I'll write about it and sooner or later people will catch on, that's part of why I complain. I'd also like to let people know I'm not going to censor what I write based on who will be reading it. I'll write what I want to write, how I want it written, when I want to write it because writing is my right, and writing gives you power. Thoughts truly are pointless unless you do something about them, act on them, so expressing my thoughts makes them count for something. I'm not one who's great at voicing my opinion vocally, but I feel plenty free writing about it for some reason. I guess that's why I don't like phones but I love AIM. I also write because it gives me something to do that's productive, as opposed to watching TV for example, which I consider a waste of time, most of the time. Also, if I'm going to get any good at writing, it takes practice using words and putting them together properly, and I'd like to improve my writing. I've always considered myself a good writer, and the more time I spend on it, the better I will become. I should definitely read more though to improve vocabulary and learn different styles of writing. So I guess what I'm trying to say is: I'm aware of my audience but I'm not going to write towards that audience. I'm writing exclusively for myself and if others wish to see what I want to write about, they're welcome. Thanks for tuning in various college students, may you have a wonderful night.
