New beginnings
The last time I posted in this…. Yup, it was before the end of grade 12.
And I decided to ~document my progress online~.
Yeah, no. That never happened. It’s not that I don’t have a problem with it happening, it’s just that I’m realistic about it. And in itself, blogging about spending less time on the internet seems somewhat paradoxical to me.
I do spend a lot...

Sad truth
Honestly? I probably spent around 8-10 hours online tonight. I’m not entirely sure. I’m fully aware that that’s pretty pathetic, and I’m working toward fixing it as we speak. I didn’t finish my art project, nor did I start it for that matter, but I did accomplish a feeble amount of history.
Even my dad is onto me now… he knows that I’m not really...

Smaller failures
Hey there, internet.
So not only does Alex fail at blogging, but she also fails at the purpose of this blog entirely. I was supposed to get my life together and do more work and less internet, I haven’t.
If anything, I’ve maximized my internet usage. It’s unfortunate but I’m just being honest with myself. I acquired a taste and got deeply involved with twitter, I met...

It makes me really sad when I see people whose...
It happened to me several years ago. It really pains me to know I can’t do anything, because nobody could really do anything for me when I was addicted either. I just ignored everyone. Everything I did every day was just having fun so I could report back to my online friends and have a jolly good time talking for hours on end with them. Chatting. Chatting. Chatting.
I really hope...

Unrealistic Expectations
I was looking at my last post, and I was laughing, I really was.
It’s not that I wouldn’t like to achieve some of the things that I’ve stated there, and in a way, I have been improving. It’s just that it’s not the sort of improvement I want (I just end up holing up and reading books for hours on end), and I still feel obliged to talk to many of my friends online.

Self control
I wonder exactly what it is that make people have large amounts, little, or no self control.
I mean I know I for one can have it to a certain degree, but I’m pretty vulnerable to certain things, which is most of the reason I think I’m so straightedge. I’ve had highs and lows of horrible internet addiction (or it could even be referred to as an obsession, more like), but...
Intro.
So yeah, I’m just average.
But I suppose saying I’m average would be a lie, because I’m actually quite odd, but the reality is that I’m perfectly okay with my oddities, they’re what make me myself.
I aspire to become something later in life that I’m proud of. I sincerely hope I can achieve this.
I’m just going to post ramblings on here. Not too...
