what did we discover: about what i post

i've discovered (and really this probably should have come to my realization a lot earlier than this but for some reason just didn't occur to me) that people that read my blog would be a lot more interested (not that they aren't or aren't to some degree) if i wrote more often about myself.

the thing is, i'm just really not that interested in revealing personal things about myself on a regular basis on the very public thing that is the Web. i do not find it a cathartic exercise.

this image has little to do with the content of this post, but i do like milk tea.

sometimes i feel incredibly compelled to type out things that mean something more to me than just designers i like or things i come across and find fascinating (which is the majority of my blog posts) and sometimes i even type out drafts that i never publish.

there is some set of unspoken guidelines that i have enforced upon myself concerning what did we learn's content. and at least for now that's the way things will continue to be.

it started out personal didn't it? what happened?

i try to think of it not really as cathartic but a practice in articulation of thought...which really is rather difficult

actually it didn't start out personal. ok maybe to a closer degree. but really not - if you go back in time, my first post was a movie review. hah.

i like to articulate my thoughts about art. that's difficult too.

i don't mind. there isn't really one preferred way to me.
