Nostalgia

I'm feeling nostalgia for the old blogs =[

Only last year we had our blogging tendencies; we were constantly at it. I greatly miss Chloe's blogs as in Chloe Williams...although now that I think about it the newer Chloe has stopped blogging too...

Anyway, yes I miss Chloe's blogs. I was always impressed with them. I can't say anything against Lee; I've never met him, but he did deteriorate my enjoyment of the blogging experience ;|

All the blogs that once were had their qualities, reflected in all your quirks of personality.

But that's probably mostly gone now; I lost my optimism for any real blogging revival a while ago. People move on to new things, and I'm afraid for most of us, the new things most probably won't include our blog followers.
Of course, our blogs will still be here - well, I'm not going to delete mine - but will we ever go back to the daily updates of blogs, sitting up late at night preferring to write a blog than doing actual work?


But that's not what you want to hear really. I'm no pessimist; I don't regularly complain. Knowing me as I do, I'll probably continue to update my blog sporadically, just to make sure its still there, long after all of you have become mature adults with little interest in the young ones' internet (apart from Xanthe. She'll always live on here). Because soon, that will be the case! :o Can you imagine, not being the young generation! We will be old! My cousin says that anyone older than 20 is old. I can see her point... You might not say that being in your 20s is the 2nd generation, but your well on your way there. And even if you don't think so, people will perceive you to be so.
Its scary, but good. I've always looked forward to getting into my twenties. Its certainly not as scary as the whole moving towards university. Which brings me to a point. I don't want to worry about it now, because I've done the exam. I'm just not sure I've got anywhere close to the B in History I need.... =/ I really don't want to stay another year in Caerphilly. I've warmed to the idea of going to Swansea a lot, being a floor buddy with Swaran :L
I guess whatever happens, happens. Just irritates me. I think grades should be given according to a discussion you've had. Sandy could've recorded so many of our class discussions and I would've gotten an A. >:|

I prefer the idea in university where you take your work home with you. Its a lot but you get more time. The time limits in our exams constrain us and our ability far too much. Timed essays aren't the only way of establishing people's intelligence. Stupid exam board.

I feel that I am repeating things I've said in a previous blog. I'm not sure. I think I talk about work a lot...

Instead I shall talk about my day. Which concerns a lot of work =/ So actually I won't talk about my day. I'll just say I had bacon, chips and beans for dinner. =]

I've also been taking a long break from revision this evening (although most of the last week has been a long break, but this evening's break felt less stressful) and I've played on Rome.

Then I felt compelled to blog about things. From what I gather off other people, we all have blogger on, yet we are all too lazy to actually write anything. We all feel that we have nothing to say? When did we ever have anything real to say? :L
To be honest, I think the spontaneous unplanned blogs gain much more attention than when we know what we want to write about.

The only thing I really set out to write about for this blog was about my History - which is now OVER - because Phil told me to update people about its end lol.

Other than that, I have fuck all to say. Now my back hurts and I want a drink, and I'm generally finding the voice in my head (which is my own) tedious. I always think loudly when I'm typing.... Sometimes I speak what I'm typing as a whisper without really noticing.... Does anyone else do that?

Anyway, someone else write a blog. Stop letting Xanthe get all the glory of blog-making ;D

Write anything. I just want to hear your [typed] voices!
I miss people =/

Nos da

(Back to old the traditions ;D you may have noticed a few large words)

I didn't notice any long words. I must have an epic vocabulary :P.

As for blogging glory I think its a push to say i'm getting any, I think that time passed when people stopped writing.

I feel your still getting a fair amount of comments, but I guess its true you haven't got any competition any more, apart from Facebook, which is boring.

maybe exams have something to do with why people aren't blogging.

Chloe said...

Awww Gwyn that's sweet!
I didn't think anyone was that much a fan of my blog to greatly miss it!
:)

Exams might have something to do with it presently, although I wrote this and I have an exam on Monday.
Also, Xanthe's had exams all week but she's been blogging.

But people haven't wrote any blogs for months, and nothing was really affecting us greatly then.

Also, last year we blogged more than we did actual work. It was quite obvious that the majority of us were.

Can't wait for the blog Sarah! :P

And that's alright Chloe =]
