Give me less options.

I used to think I would be a good vlogger on youtube, talking in videos about whatever it was I felt like talking about that week. What was wrong with me? I don’t like talking in front of people, much less putting up videos that even show a glimpse of me. I don’t really crave that much attention being drawn to myself. I’m awkward in person. Then I thought I could be a pretty good blogger, but it turns out I can’t keep up with them. I’ll be all, “I’m going to do a blog post today!” Then I remember I have about 2345215 different places I’m registered with on the interwebs that I could blog from, so I try to write to each so none of them will feel left out. It just doesn’t work out well. Then I remember I have a journal which I actually use a pen to write in. :O So I forget about blogging and start writing in my journal. THERE ARE TOO MANY PLACES TO WRITE THINGS DOWN IN MY LIFE. I JUST WANT ONE PLACE. I WANT LIFE TO BE SIMPLE. WHY IS LIFE SO HARD???

Woops. I think this just turned into a whole different problem entirely. So there it is. I don’t know what to do about my writing and my life. I find a similarity between my cluttered life and the clutter of all the social networking craze online. They’re both confusing, and something needs to be done about it.

So. Social networks: twitter, facebook, tumblr, blogs, vlogs, youtube… any other form of online networking I missed… or just plain old pen and paper. Which is your favorite method of expressing yourself?

 I can’t decide. There are too many options. I want less options.
