i have been blogging since the age of fourteen (i am now nineteen), but prefer to periodically "hide" my old entries from the public. i know that it's silly, that no one is actually reading what i'm writing, but it's nice to have a part of it just for me. i used to delete them, up until the summer of 2011, when i realized that years from now, the older, wiser, and hotter me would be devastated about the fact that even though i'd technically kept a diary for most of my adolescent and 20-something life, there was no record. i guess this is my way of turning the page. have an excellent day.
