I thought about this long and hard.
I have a post in my drafts. Just sitting there with not even 75% of ALL the things I've done this summer kind of just roughly listed there, to be expanded on so it can be posted up on this blog. Looking at it, I thought to myself, why do I feel the need to post this up? If I'm already living it, that's what it really is all about right?
So yeah. I'm going to stop... kind of. I'm moving to another location but that will be mainly pictures (heh heh, fast internet = easier uploads!) and maybe some random stuff that happen to me along the way. I'm quite sad to leave this blog behind after 570+ posts but I think I need some symbolic kind of thing to represent change. I know, it's lame but hey, my life, haha.
I'm not saying everything that happened before was any less important than what will soon, I just need to compartmentalize my life in a way that I can understand so I don't go insane. Sometimes I view my own blog and read previous entries and it can really get me down! Quite a bit of depressing stuff in there that I don't EVER want to remember so leaving this segment behind seems like a good plan.
There will be one more post up soon. And that post will constantly be updated just so this blog is not wiped out by blogger one day. I'm calling it the memories post. Every time I'm reminded of a funny or happy memory, and it will happen because I'm sentimental like that, I will update that post. If it lasts that long, one day when I'm old and gray and I read through that list, I'll be reminded of all the good times I've had throughout high school. I'll probably cry too but that's a different matter.
So yes, it's an end but also a beginning. I'll post the new blog URL soon, still thinking of a name. I'm thinking something extremely creative like y'know sheelaratnam.blogspot.com but I think it's too unique for people to remember =P See how la, just watch this space, if you are actually interested in my life, lol!
Once again, CHEERS! to new beginnings and a treasure of memories that lasts a life time.

aww. really? You're right... reading one's own entries can get one down. But it can also be incredibly uplifting. Depending on the entry. So one should only post happy entries. ^^ That's what I tend to do anyway.
Unless there's a lesson to be learnt. But then again, one might disagree with what one used to believe. I mean, what if you've developed as a person and moved on and no longer had the same perspectives as you used to have?! Wouldn't rereading your posts means you are going backwards,as opposed to developing?
And words are powerful as well... They can be so definite, cold, imprecise. Hehe.
Just wanted to say hi, really. =P
