I've got things to tell you...

I tried (tried being the operative word) to dance salsa today at school. We were having an international theme day but since I was basically born with an invisible third leg, it was more or less impossible for me. Not everyone has naturally graceful moves, unfortunately. I think I could've been a good dancer if it wasn't so that my tendon wasn't so stiff on one of my legs. But apparently I'm getting it Botox-ed next week on Friday, so that's nice. Keep your fingers crossed! If this treatment works, I'll never need another surgery - at least not for my leg.

Happy birthday [livejournal.com profile] angelbaby112688 and [livejournal.com profile] silent_chris! I hope you two awesome people have fantastic birthdays!

Christmas music makes me feel really good. There's this sort of cheerfulness about it, isn't there?

Is it just me that is really disturbed when there's other people in the room and you're writing a LJ entry? I mean, it's not like it's superpersonal or anything but... I want to be focused and write what I feel is important or at least some sort of worthy mention. With other people around, it's easy that they make remarks about what you're writing and then it's as if you're going through some sort of editing process that I'm not really a fan of, at least concerning LiveJournal. If someone comments, you might feel silly and delete it afterwards, whereas I feel that even though silly things that make you go *facepalm* is what makes LJ so awesome. I can look back on when I was fourteen and I first started with this journal and sigh about the grammar errors and the misspellings (and I'll probably do the same thing in three years from now, hopefully). It is a part journal, part documentation and part social networking. Because, without the flist, I'd have no one to write to and that would be unfortunate.

I find it difficult writing anything when there's someone else in the room. Whether it's emailing people, writing stories, posting an entry on LJ... the only things I feel comfortable writing when I'm around people are school related stuff (where there's practically nothing that's personal).

I definitely know what you're talking about. I guess it's because the more personal stuff takes up so much of your personal energy whereas the school stuff might only bore you. You're more sensitive to criticism etc. when you're writing for example, a LJ entry.

Yeah, with school stuff I don't tend to get personal. Even when it comes to essays where I have to discuss and analyze topics it never gets personal even though it's about my opinions. It's more on a intellectual level than an emotional if you know what I mean. :)

I definitely know what you mean. I'm exactly the same way :D I can distance myself from opinions in a completely different way than I can from emotions or thoughts (I make a difference between thoughts and opinions).

haha I can recognise that third leg. that is why I never dance in public..or at all for that matter..

I know that you mean about the other places thing..absolutley NO ONE gets to look at the screen when I am typing.

I wish I did though. Good exercise and probably fun.

I'm glad I'm not alone :D
