I tend to write when I feel that I have something to say.. whether that be documenting an event, or more likely when I am feeling emotional (happy, sad, angry). I grew up writing in a paper journal, and I got into the habit of turning to it whenever I was upset or extremely happy. So sometimes it may seem like I'm always upset, or always extremely happy.. cause that's when I feel like I want to write. But I assure you I have 10x as many normal (boring) days as well ;)
I've had an LJ since February of 2001, so it has become a big part of my life. I met my best friend, my Twinniness, on LJ.. And many other friends on here, and I love them all :)

I am open to making new LJ friends, but I am looking for just that: friends. I periodically will go through and remove people from my friends list if I don't feel a friendship has formed. I like my journal to be a very comfortable and safe space for me to write in, so I tend to keep my friends list very close knit :)
