My Secret Life

Well.

I was inspired to write this after reading THIS blog. She is someone I follow on YouTube and twitter, and Blogger - obviously. I don't know why, but I took to her immediately on YouTube when I first saw one of her video's and have followed ever since.

Anyway, I digress, she wrote a blog about how in the real world people are not open to the Internet culture - things such as YouTube, Twitter and blogging are insane in some people's minds. And I am no different. Although I partake in this Internet culture I do frown upon it sometimes.

I am a secret (shhhhh don't tell anyone!) blogger. There, I said it. Only a few people who I know in real life know I blog. And the reason is kind of two fold. One, people really don't get it. If you tell them you blog or use twitter etc. they can't grasp WHY.

Two. I don't really get it. I blog, but for reason's unknown. And if I were to tell people, they would want to know what I blog about... which is nothing. I just write nonsense. And then people think you are self involved. But I'm not. (I hope).

It's a strange secret, but I am so far into blogging (I think its been 2 years), that to come clean now would be to admit to people I have lied, because I have had discussions in the past and said its something I don't get... and I wouldn't do it... but I do... because to admit it would be...shameful? I don't know... It's just never been something I wanted to share. My boyfriend doesn't even know - and thank God, I say, because he thinks I don't shut up enough in 'real' life, so I imagine he would frown upon my constant virtual blabbings.

So here I am, in my secret life! Great!!! Although I do live in fear of people finding out. I have nothing to hide, but still... it's kind of nice to have a little place of my own out here....
