Hooping in Hibiya Park during the trip back for Ash and Tracey’s wedding in May.

Feedback is always a good thing. I’ve been told I’m too cryptic, and I know I’m too sporadic, and generally I would like things to be different around here, content-wise in particular. And additionally, I would like to be writing again, practicing writing regularly; why not here?

There are, of course, Reasons why I haven’t been around much. Study is one of them, but not a good one. Working on this will only improve my writing skills and my marks. Sean is another, and I’m gonna have to do a bit of work on the balance there. One reason you didn’t really know about was the fact that when I started working after finishing Uni last time around, I told my bosses about this site and that became hugely inhibiting. I actually stopped wanting to write, and it didn’t quite feel safe in here anymore. But that feeling has passed, and I am no longer subject to one of those bosses, nor writing about things that will concern the other boss, and neither had the time to read it in any case.

As for being cryptic, well, I stopped keeping a diary once I got this blog, so the tradition of writing for the audience of one continued. I kinda ventured out into writing for an audience now and then, but as I was (and am still) rather self-conscious about the fact that the audience exists, I didn’t really try very hard to connect. I wanted to maintain the old style. And now, I feel like I want to try something new.

So, enough for today. I don’t think I’m going to be here everyday, and I certainly dont want this to be an extension of a facebook page, I’m going to think a bit more about how this will work.
