Add Me: Find Friends on LJ

My life
damon_lover
I know I put a basic information post on here, but it didn't say a lot about me. My name is Chandra and I am dyslexic. That means I make tons of grammar mistakes! If I do make those mistakes tell me, I won't be offended. Even though I am dyslexic I love to write. I have trouble coming up with my own characters, so I take characters (mostly from T.V. shows or celebrities) that I find interesting.

Other than writing I love archery and quilting. Archery is a very fun sport for me. I can do it for hours at a time. Here is a picture of my target:

20141027_145200


As far as quilting goes I am an administrator of my own quilting group. I may sometimes post about my quilts.

I wrote this post because I wanted you to know more about me and to see if anyone had the same interest.

Here we go again...
Inspector Goole

Hi.

I guess first things first: I'm not really an inspector, and, for those familiar with the name, nor do I intend to force uncomfortable truths out of people who may or may not have had a hand in the suicide of a young lady.

What I am is returning to LJ after an exile which was only partially self-imposed. I used to be on here fairly regularly, but there came a point where I was receiving a bit too much unconstructive criticism for being honest in my blog about how I felt about things, which made the whole environment a little toxic. I don't expect people to necessarily agree with everything I say, but I do believe people should distinguish between things that offend them and things that are wrong. Disagree, not disparage.

I'm male, in my late 20's and live in the UK. I'm reluctantly single, work in an office where I pry into people's lives and feel most comfortable in an alternative or geeky environment. As a young man I politely excused myself from the mental health system after being passed from pillar to post and now seem to cycle through the three emotions of hope, despair and anger on a fairly consistent basis.

I'm not entirely sure what I intend to write about. Sometimes I feel like I need to comment on something I have seen or read, I imagine I will frequently complain about the lack of authenticity of women I speak to on a dating site I'm on and probably just as much about how uncomfortable I am with some of the processes I have at work. I will ask for advice when I need it, and explanations for behaviours I do not understand. In many ways I'm a fairly typical guy, I play games, read comics, build Lego and watch TV. Equally I think words like "terrorist" are pejorative, I believe everyone should have the right to choose life or not and I often feel incredibly isolated in a world I don't really fit in to. Generally speaking I'll try not to be too negative on here, I try to face the ironies and difficulties of being with humour and existential angst in equal parts.

As I'm only just returning to this world feel free to just say hi and add me if you're taken by such a whim, I've forgotten how large parts of this even work... I intend to write my first actual entry tonight.

Newbie here!

Hello everyone!

Just created this journal and so I have absolutely no people that I follow!

About me:

Female, 37 yo, married, no children, 4 cats, pretty liberal

I will be using my journal primarily as a diary, to help me work through crap. In other words, if you prefer reading generally-positive journals, journals that record recipes or gratitude journals, or you find negative posts distasteful, then definitely don't follow me!

Not that everything I will be posting will be negative, but my primary reason for creating this journal is to have somewhere to vent about emotional and existential things.

Some of my interests and hobbies:

spirituality and religion (I am interested in all religions from Asatru to Zoroastrianism and have a Masters in Christian Theology, but my current focus is Traditional Witchcraft (not Wicca)), creative writing, art, graphic design, Harry Potter (went to an HP convention this year!), Lord of the Rings, imgur (an addiction, really), cats.

My secondary reason for creating this journal is to try to get back into creative writing.

My tertiary reason for creating this journal is to vent about medical issues. I have an eating disorder. This isn't a huge focus in my life and I won't be posting about it a ton, but it is there. Just to warn you. I also have back and hip problems and so cannot exercise. So, some of my posts will be about pain management. Again, not a huge focus in my life. It is just there.

So, uh, there you have it. :)

New Friends
justjesi
I haven't done an add me post in years and reality is not even half of the people I keep as friends update anymore, I just keep in touch with them through other forms of social media.
I read Livejournals everyday except on the weekends when I disconnect myself from technology and work but I do try to comment as much as possible.

I've been on Livejoural since 2005, I have a very soft spot for this place. I started writing on my last year of high school, went to uni and did Veterinary Science for five years and a half and straight after finishing my degree I jumped on a plane and moved from Argentina to Australia not knowing what would happen. Three years and a half later I'm happily living in Sydney and enjoying life.

Long story short I'm Jesi, I'm turning 27 in less than a week, my English is not perfect but it has improved a lot and to be honest I have this place to thank, every time I update I do it in English. I've travelled a lot around the world, I'm very family orientated, my sister moved to Sydney almost 2 years ago and got married to one of my friends so I do write about them. Her and my mum, who's currently in Argentina, are my world. I was heartbroken at the start of the year due to a messed up relationship but I have found love again and I write about her a lot. She has shaken my world in the best possible way. I'm openly gay and proud of who I am. I love food, I love exercising, I love socialising, I love going to the beach as much as staying in bed being a sloth watching movies and eating chocolate, I love wearing pyjamas and of course animals are a big part of my life. I'm not practising right now, I'm finalising my paperwork next year so I can become a permanent residence here, but I do intend to go back to the field. My entries are usually happy because life has been great lately, I also post photos occasionally.

I love LJ, I have made some real life keeper friendships through this place. I'm looking for people who are genuinely looking for friendships, I'm not interested in being a number on someone's Friends List, I hate it. I'm pretty friendly myself so if you are interested let me know :)

I dare ya!

It's about time I do this again, just for funsies I suppose!

Everyone calls me Kazi and obviously, I did it. I'm always in trouble I think. I'm a 29 year old female surviving in the wilds of the south, more specifically Georgia.

I professionally work (hide) behind my camera and get bit by dogs for a living (two different jobs). It's beyond glamorous, especially when you have a dog trying to literally tear your arm out of socket for thinking you're a bad guy.

In my free time, when I'm not pretending to be a total billy bad ass, and I do mean pretending: I ride my horse and laugh like an idiot on his back, run around with my personal dogs, or drive everywhere looking for exciting adventures with my best friends.

I was just recently engaged, as of this past Saturday (woot!). So my journal might end up getting to see some mushy stuff about non-typical weddings.

Things that interest me:
• Reddit
• Person of Interest
• Music - all types except jazz - sorry, jazz
• Supernatural
• Comics
• Competitive horse riding
• Wandering through the woods lost and calling it hiking
• Thrift shopping - not because it's cool, but because I'm broke
• Photography - storm, wildlife, pet
• Under the Dome
• Dog training
• Marvel movies and just movies that go BOOM
• Reading - always reading
• Spirituality - Shamanism, Animism, Asatru, etc.

I'm pretty awful at introductions, so this will probably be pretty short and to the point. I love my LJ, but haven't been as active as I'd like to be. I hope adding some new friends might help.

My name is Jammie. (like Jamie)
I'm 27 years old.
Born, raised and living in New Jersey.
In a relationship with John for the past 7 years.
We have an amazing 4 year old boy that was diagnosed with Leukemia in August.
His diagnosis and treatment take up a lot of our lives right now.
I have two dogs that I adore.
I graduated with a degree in Sociology back in 2012.
I work full time as much as possible for my father's small business (and have been since I was 12).
Coffee may have taken over the blood in my veins.
I love playing with my son, spending time with my boyfriend, hockey, movies, music, reading and tons of other silly things that I don't have much time for.
I have 3 older brothers, 1 niece, and 5 nephews. Making family events rather hectic. They drive me batshit crazy, but I love them (for the most part) anyway...
I have a potty mouth.
I'm shy and quiet when you first meet me.

I've been on LJ since 2004 and have no intention of leaving anytime soon. I post about my day, whats going on in my life, my family, pictures, the occasional meme and whatever else I feel like sharing. I read everything on my friends page, but only comment when I have something to say.

My journal is friends only. If you'd like to add me please comment here or on my friends only post. :)

Friends
Me

I don't live like a poor person even though I make poverty-level income. I feel pretty wealthy when I think about how pleasant most of my time is. I feel wealthy to have Paladin in my life. I feel wealthy to do work I feel passionate about doing. I feel wealthy to have a beautiful garden and to have time to sew my own beautiful clothing (which I'm wearing right now). These things are precious and wonderful. I have time for friendship in a world where more and more people do not have time for family or friends at all.

Friends are the true wealth...

So much separates people today, like labels. For example, I've come across a lot of Asperger-diagnosed people. Honestly, I think that label should be chucked in the trash along with ADHD, manic depressive, and all those other things. Each person processes information in their unique way, and not enough credit is given to just how drastically different two "normal" people are from one another. Sticking labels like "learning disabled" on someone doesn't seem to help most people, and often makes people feel more limited.
Partly this is just my personal baggage speaking here, but that sort of thing ticks me off. My mother was thought to be "retarded" just because she was so ill with insanely chronic candida (which was entirely the doctor's fault for putting her on antibotics for literally years with no probiotics at all), and my dad was labeled schizophrenic and a number of other things. My husband was labeled ADHD and depressed and put on drugs in his teenage years. They tried to label me stuff and put me on pills, but I refused to take any of them, and ignored my counselors (thank goodness).
From my experience, it is society and its labels and biases that are the problem. Not people who are suffering from lack of vitamins, sunlight, human compassion, friendship, purpose in life, etc. Not people who happen to process information in a way that is incompatible with standardized testing and one-size-fits-all employment options.

I've made most of my meaningful friendships online. I think the internet has made it more possible than ever before to reach people of radically different cultures. I've played MMOs (online games) with people who I never would have otherwise interacted with, and in a few cases carried on friendships with people from radically different cultures, such as Japanese woman who was surprised to learn we don't eat cake on Christmas, and who was also bewildered by the concept of Christmas stockings.

I came across this post about friendship and it really struck me:

Most people don't know how to form functional relationships. When you are younger, you are more open because you haven't yet accumulated enough filters from adults and society. You are just starting to experience judgment from others ("That shirt is stupid", "That question was retarded.")
You have to tell children to shut up because they are too loud. You have to tell adults to speak up because they are too quiet.
Boundaries are necessary to growth. But most people grow up with improper boundaries placed upon them; society is very good at telling you want NOT to do (don't smoke, don't get bad grades, etc), but it's horrible at telling you what to do.
For example, think of all the myriad ways society punishes you for poor dating habits. Loser, loner, virgin, too ugly, too fat, too dumb, creepy, bad hygiene, etc. There are too many ways to count. But when it comes to actively give you the right direction, telling you the right way to date, society is conspicuously silent. Or you get the bullshit/impractical ("be confident, be yourself") advice that never works. Most of the time you end up in the friendzone revealing just how shitty that advice really is.
As you grow you adopt the same mentality that society has grown up with.
"DON'T do [insert bad action]...." "DO [insert generic impractical advice]"
As a result, most of your relationships are borne of convenience; you're located in the same place, you like the same sports, you have the same hobbies. And at a young age, you're open enough to share these things. You sit next to someone in class and you talk about your G.I. Joes or the TV shows you like with abandon. It's very easy to make friends because children are very up front with their expectations. They wear their happiness and displeasure on their faces and you can hear it in their voices very clearly. This makes managing relationships much easier.
But as you grow older and encounter more and more moral judgment, you close up more and more because you fear the rejection of others more and more. You become a neurotic people pleaser.
Also, people don't learn the difference between forming relationships around necessities versus forming relationships around commonalities. This is why most relationships are dysfunctional in nature; jocks hang with jocks. Art fags hang with art fags. Hipsters hang with hipsters. Blacks hang with blacks. Rich people hang with rich people, and so on. Everybody is on the look out for common cultural associations. Very few are ever taught to pay attention to their necessities.
Necessities are the basis for functional relationships. They are the people you actually miss when they leave, instead of the people you just wish you were around so you could have a little more fun with smoking weed or playing basketball.
When you form relationships around commonalities, you create options.
Optional people are different than essential people. Optional people are like your waiter; you think you need them because they are serving you food and it seems like they're important at the time. But in reality, you could replace them in an instant with any other common waiter standing around.
Essential relationships are formed around necessities.
These are satisfying relationships because they do more than just give you a good time. That actually meet your needs. Your mom and dad don't necessarily give you a fun time every day, but they meet your needs. Same with a spouse. Same with any person who you are very open with, who you discuss your necessities with and who can meet those necessities. These are the people that become essential to your life. This are the people that become your arm and your legs--when they are removed from your life, it hurts. This is the difference between a bond of convenience and a bond of necessity.
Everything we do in life, every activity, every decision, every action is related to fulfilling our needs. We don't smoke just for the hell of it, we don't parachute out of airplanes, we don't join the military, we don't play video games, we don't go to raves, we don't surf the internet, we don't post on reddit for fake internet points just because we can. All these things are attempts to fulfill our needs in some way. If we recognize this and get down to the core reasons behind our actions, we realize just how powerful necessity is in governing our lives.
The beauty of necessity is that everyone's needs are universal. Although there are different activities and different cultures around the world, they are all governed by the same attempt to meet the exact same necessities. If you understand this, it become much easier to aim at necessity when forming your relationships. It becomes much easier to form a relationship with anyone.
Commonalities are hit and miss. They give you a false sense of belonging. But they are options because you can switch out commonalities like changing hats. You can switch tennis for swimming. You can switch rich for poor. You can switch athlete for nerd. You can switch gang banger for girl scout. They are all equally optional designations and ultimately worthless distinctions.
Necessity on the other hand hits every single time. You don't have to guess what necessities the other person has because you have the exact same needs. Everyone on earth has the exact same needs. Forming relationships around necessities is much harder to do because it requires you to learn how to open up again, but it's also much simpler once you become skilled at it.
From the author of "The Principles That Govern Social Interaction".

What do I need? What do we all need? To be loved. To be understood. I think that is why I write. I am seeking love and understanding.

I've had a LJ account for over 13 years now. I used to update religiously but it's become pretty sporadic. I'm getting into the habit of updating regularly and need a breath of fresh air for my friends list. My posts generally consists of dreams, daily events/rants, silly things from imgur, relationship junk and whatnot. I try to never be judgmental and I have a big heart.

My journal is used for collecting day to day thoughts and activities, working through feelings, venting about problems, and cataloguing life events and memories. I often post pictures and for the most part, I try to keep it a positive place. I make it my mission to look for the silver lining in every situation.

Feel free to have a look through my profile for more information. I'm interested in adding people who are active, friendly, and open minded. :)

What my journal is for:
*My journal is mostly used for venting to cope with my disabilities and daily problems. There's nothing I can really do about it and I accept it, but I hate having to live with this every single day.
*It is also used as an outlet to help me recover from the narcissistic abuse my ex friend Becca had put me through since 2009.
*It is also used as an outlet to help me cope with my narcissistic mother who abandoned me when I was 14 years old
*It helps me figure out where I stand with my morals and beliefs
*It expresses my opinions and thoughts on important issues throughout the world
*It helps me keep track of my dreams and nightmares
*It helps me put things in perspective. If I'm feeling really negative about a situation then I list the good things and the bad things about it then figure out what I can learn about it.
*Memorable moments that are worth remembering several years later
*Pictures of thrifted finds
*Pictures of my apartment as my decor evolves


Important:
As I stated before, my journal is mostly used for venting and coping with narcissistic abuse, fetal alcohol syndrome, abandonment, rejection, anxiety, depression, and whatever other issues I have going on in my life. If you are one of those happy shiny "positive people" who are looking for positivity then my journal is not for you. If you can tolerate negativity, venting,  traumatic experiences and controversy then by all means, feel free to add me.

Me againCollapse )
---------------------------------------------------------

I recently did a friend's clean up. I don't care to have people added that never post (some hadn't posted in 2 months) or those that have nothing to say. I use this as my ONLY social networking site and am here to make friends in real life, hopefully, down the road. I give out all of my information on my Livejournal and am a pro texter. Lol. I'm also on Xbox Live if there are any gamers on here. I've got many personal things on my site too that could very well turn you off from me. Either way, add me if you dare and decide if I'm worth it. Be mature enough to tell me why you end up removing me though so I can work on myself as a person. Thank you. See you bye.

Hi thar, I'm Brandie, a 25 year old order fulfill-er at a place called Bealls. I live in south Florida. Currently, I'm not a student but I plan to take online classes, studying interior design and graphic design. I have far too many hobbies to keep up with. TV and Video games were my first interests, but since then, I gotten into sewing, web design and graphic design, which I further studied all three in high school. Making jewelry and photography are my more recent ones, but I've been writing and drawing for years as well. I talk about these hobbies quite often in my posts and will share my creations too. Oh and I make icons too.
I'm honestly never bored with this amount of hobbies!

I love my fandoms too. Around 4 months ago, I caved and finally started watching Star Trek. I started with the the Original Series and worked up to Deep Space 9, The Next Generation, Enterprise and Voyager, but it became an obsession very quickly (thanks Netflix). I love all of the TV series and the movies (even the new reboot ones). So if you're a fan of any of the Star Trek TV series, I'm very much looking for Trekkie friends. I would love discussing it all. But I also love other fandoms too. Sailor Moon, The Elder Scrolls (another big one I'm obsessed with), Doctor Who and Marvel movie-verse are my more current ones. I love lots of others too. My posts will consist of fandom discussion.

As for other things, I do talk about many other things in my posts. Memes, life, the price of eggs in China but anything of length is always cut. I do occasionally have bouts of depression but, that's always behind cut, if it's persistent enough that I need to discuss it. Sometimes I have drops my confidence, but I try to remain optimistic and encourage optimism in those who suffer from such a horrible disease as depression. I really does bother me to know people have or are going through it ;n; Aside from that, I am a Christian, a tad bit of a feminist and I am pro-life. I don't really discuss these, nor will I preach, judge or try to convert you. I respect other's beliefs. But last little note, I'm very LGBT friendly and I have a strong believe that love is love, no matter what.

Hi!

I'm new to livejournal and am looking to have some friends up in my friends list, if you add me I promise to comment and I love to write so I'll be posting a lot on my own journal. I'm still figuring out how livejournal works, so please forgive me if I don't do something right, i'm still learning. It took me forever to figure out how to find communities (eyeroll).

I live in the south, but I can't wait to move and maybe travel abroad. I haven't had a change to really see much of anything and it's not like I'm getting any younger. I just want to feel like I've experienced something more meaningful in my life other than the crappy cashier gig I have at wallmart.

I feel like I'm looked at as stupid by everyone just because I'm a cashier. My managers always seem to play favorites, and sadly I'm not one of those favorites. They give more hours to others, but at the same time, I guess that's not such a bad thing... I do hate going in to work every day, I suppose if I had more hours I'd just go nutty. It really gets to me when customers are rude though. Like, I expect it from management because wallmart is notorius for being terrible to its' workers, but I really wish my customers would treat me like a human being.

I am more than just my job though (though that's the main reason I joined livejournal, to find catharsis in complaining about things I can't complain about in real life w/o getting fired), and I do love to read and write. I'm fairly introverted, but I want to become more extroverted. I have 2 beautiful kitties, a complicated relationship with my guy friend, and a shrinking number of friends each year I get older. I fancy myself an amateur photographer (like everyone else I guess) but I'm too shy to even practice on my friends. I do nice "selfies" a lot though, and pictures of nature. I'm still a work in progress obviously and trying to learn.

blonde-cap-girl-nao-consigo-excluir-photography-pretty-Favim.com-84504_large

I also am somewhat of a fashionista and i spend far too much of my paychecks on clothes. Favorites include Nordies, Bloomingdales, and sometimes Target. Obviously I don't shop at wallmart (haha).

Not sure what else to add... I am new at this. Please friend me, I love reading other people's entries and I promise to comment. Have a great day! :)

Hi everyone!
My name is Kelly and I am 23 in Miami, FL!
I used to have a Livejournal and LOVED it, kept it for a few years but honestly forgot my password and got sucked into Myspace/Facebook. But now I am back.

Just looking to add people that talk about their every day lives, regular funny posts and whatnot. I live with my boyfriend Adam (31) and trying to convince him to make one too but we'll see!

I am into all sorts of music, I love hip hop (Being a Miami girl) but I also love all sorts of rock.
Some of my favorite artists are Pink Floyd, Deftones, Brand New, Streetlight Manifesto, Outkast, Kanye West. I love quotes and lyrics.
Used to play instruments but don't anymore, would love to meet people that would want to share that interest.

Also never used to watch many movies until recently but I do love Garden State, What Dreams May Come, Splice, random sci-fi and I love HORROR but I can't really name a specific I love, would like more suggestions though!

Anyway I welcome anyone and would like to get to know you all too.

Have a great Saturday!
xoxo

Hello everyone, my name is Becca and I'm 27. I grew up in a fairly large city in Ohio, but moved to a more rural town in the same state. Despite what you've heard, Ohio isn't all corn fields. We totally grow beans sometimes, too. I live with my boyfriend and our 2 cats. For money I babysit my nephew and things have been pretty chaotic with that at best. I plan on going to a university this spring so I'm sure the chaos has only begun.

I'm looking for active LJers who are compassionate, understanding, kind, funny, and who possibly want to form a friendship outside of LJ. Racists, homophobes, bigots, sexists, and people who irrationally hate tacos need not apply. I'm very understanding, fairly laid-back, open-minded, feminist and atheist. I don't mind having religious or conservative friends at all and welcome people with differences of opinion. I really want to get to know the people on my friends list and want people who want to get to know me.

I will say I do have anxiety/depression and also Body Dysmorphia. I may bring this up (I hardly ever do), or you may notice the undertones in my writing. Often times I do use my journal to vent about things that frustrate me in my life as a means to sorting out my feeling. Yes, my one feeling, because I only have one left and everyone always seems to hurt it. Also, my default setting is sarcasm. When I'm upset I'm sarcastic and when I'm happy I'm sarcastic and that, understandably, confuses people. The weirder thing is I am rarely sarcastic in my comments to others, but aim to be comforting/supportive/insightful/humorous. Also something I may mention in my journal is my battle with cancer in 2012. Just a heads up!

Anything else you'd like to know can be found in my profile. Hope to meet some new people! :]

Hi :)
dreammstar
Hi guys, my name is Crystal and I have been away from LJ for years, but recently decided i need some online friends in my life, because its hard for me to really get to know ppl in real life.

I'm pretty geeky and ranty so if you don't mind that please add, although it would be nice if you could leave a comment first. I'm a pretty good listener and would like to have some support in stuff happening in my life and yeah some of it is pretty stressful. I'm looking for friends who are not overly critical, since whatever you say will probably have quite an affect on me. I'm back in school so things are crazy, i may not post as often as i should, at the same time if its a crappy day i might post way more than i should lol. Interests are anime, fantasy, sci fi, procrastination and getting a life lol. What else... I live in canada?

Anyways, nice to meet you. :)

Looking For Friends!

NAME: Dez

AGE: 25

INTERESTS & HOBBIES:
-Movies: Garden State, Pineapple Express, Paranormal Activity
-Music: Streetlight Manifesto, Bleached, Shannon & The Clams, Hunx and His Punx
-TV: Grey's Anatomy (recently) I watch a lot of stuff on YouTube. :)

LOOKING FOR: New friends who post often. I'm pretty open to whatever you want to talk about.

ANYTHING ELSE?: I've been here for about a 6+ months, just recently made a new journal for a fresh start. I mostly post about my daily life. I do have my moments where I miss a day or two, but I'm trying to post everyday. I post about my depression, and I vent a lot. But I try and post at least one positive thing in each post to keep my head up. I love making new friends!

Hello!

iamnotgemma
Hello! Like a lot of people my friends page is pretty slow at the moment.

My name is Gemma and I'm 29 years old and live in the south coast of England. I manage a pub, but I'm a bit confused about the direction I want my life to go, so am half-heartedly looking for a change of direction. I live above work, and the pub has a cat who lives here too.

I love reading. I read pretty much anything - at the moment I'm reading all the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy books, but I'm also trying to read all the Booker Prize nominated books for 2014 and I like read non-fiction books about sociology and philosophy - my bf is doing a philosophy degree, so I like to try and find out more about it so I vaguely know what he's on about!

TV shows - Only Connect (best British gameshow ever!), and I'm watching American Horror Story on Netflix but I'm a wimp and can only watch it in the daytime when I'm not alone which has really slowed my progress with it! And older things like Dexter, House, Breaking Bad, Gossip Girl.

I like knitting - currently knitting some socks. And I'm booking a sewing course for next year, so I can finally use my sewing machine and know what I'm doing!

Saying all that, I don't care if we have nothing in common. Sometimes it's more interesting having different hobbies and lives!

Hello potential friends.

I hope you like awesome and entertaining writing. If you do, my journal is right up your alley. I'm Ben. When I write on lined paper, I don't stay between the lines. I have attained my BA, including a major in English (creative writing), as well as one in fine arts (sculpture). I guess you could say I'm a creative guy. Also a minor in anthropology.

I'm a little quirky and weird, but in an endearing way. I'm very excitable and exciting. People who get to know me typically like me a lot. My friends tell me I'm an awesome friend and person. Guilty as charged I think. And I'm a fucking laugh riot.

I am a sharp and creative dresser and my hair is artsy, but I'm not a hipster or anything.

As you may have surmised, I like to joke around a lot. I hope you like to laugh and have a good sense of humor, cuz otherwise where's the fun?

Bottom line, if you are interesting, intelligent and find me groovy, please leave me a message. Or a love letter. Yes, write me a love letter please.

Hello!

I'm looking for some new friends to spice up my Livejournal life since lately my friend's list has become somewhat inactive.

About me:
My name is Tracy and I'm turning 26 in a few days...hooray!
I grew up in Toronto, Canada moved to New York for graduate school and now I find myself living in Chicago, but I'm hoping to move to California next year.

Currently I run a pet boarding service but I'm trying to start my career in counseling...wish me luck on that dreaded job hunt, I'll need it! Since I run a pet boarding service it goes without saying that I absolutely adore animals. I have a two year old Maltese named Charlie and a toy poodle named Mango who lives with my family in Toronto. You'll sometimes hear me mention the spunky shenanigans of Charlie in my journal or talk about the dogs that board with me.

My interests include reading (I love fiction, memoirs, thrillers and mysteries) and for those who are interested you can add me on Goodreads, my username is the same as this one. I also enjoy watching movies and some TV shows that I follow include Law & Order SVU, Criminal Minds, The Big Bang Theory, 2 Broke Girls, Southpark, Project Runway, The Real Housewives of New Jersey & Beverly Hills and American Horror Story. I'm also a foodie so I enjoy cooking, looking for great places to eat at and of course photographing my food adventures lol. Additionally, I'm a makeup and skincare enthusiast so sometimes I'll mention the great products I find or talk about what I get in my monthly Ipsy subscription.

Here's what I look like:
Picture of me and my husbandCollapse )

I usually post 1-3 times a week about what's going on in my life, thoughts about things and pictures. Although I won't comment all the time (just when I have something to add to the conversation), I'm always reading. If you're interested in being friends, comment on this post and tell me a little bit about yourself and then add me ;). I'm hoping to find other active LJ users and form real friendships here.

Thanks for reading!

Hello all, my name is Aryn.  I had an LJ many years back when I was in high school, but I'm back at 27 because I miss having something to say and a place to say it.  I'm hoping to find people I can have a good back and forth with.  I'm a reader and a movie goer and a general geek.  My blog will be about my day to day as a CNA in a senior living community as well as book and movie reviews as well as anything else that crosses my mind.

Happy blogging, all.

Hey I'm Haley. I'm here looking for friends because I'm just not getting the interaction I'd like to be. A little about me. I'm married, a mother, and a caregiver. I love music of about any kind. I love watching movies. To me theres nothing like a good love story. I love to read even though I don't get to often. I am religious but I'm not going to push it down your throat if your not. Family is everything to me! I don't have very many in real life friends but the ones I do are like family. The things I post about are pretty much day to day life, marriage struggles, work rants, and stuff about julie.

Padalecki&#39;s » Happy Holidays
petit_moose
Howdy! My name is Valérie. I was born a French-Canadian, but I can handle myself in English. I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder (since 2006) and with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (since 2014).

I enjoy listening to music and watching movies. I love Jared Padalecki and Supernatural. I consider myself more like a Catholic than a Christian. I respect your beliefs no matter what they are.

I am open minded and I love learning about new things. I am a huge fan of fantasy and science fiction. My favourite directors are Peter Jackson and Steven Spielberg. I love doing online shopping a lot.

I talk about my daily life, my fandoms, my friends and my Mom. I can post the occasional meme. So if you are not into that, do not add me. I try to comment as often as possible. My friends are my second family.

It is not my first time on this community. But it is my first time under this username. If we removed each other from a previous username, you are welcome to come back. Everyone deserves a second chance.

Please leave a comment here. Also, if you type like "tHiS!!1!!", do not bother. Thank you.

New?
jesswaslikee
My name is Jess. I'm 24, and I'm looking to LJ to supplement a monotonous life. I'm also looking for an outlet for my anxiety. I really think writing (read: typing) may be one of the most beneficial outlets for those with anxiety. I will speak mostly about: anxiety, Criminal Justice, my wiener dogs, my fiance (who is a female), being a non-stereotypical lesbian (if there is such a thing? enlighten me on your thoughts), a potential drinking problem, and a desire to be the exact opposite of what I currently am (which is absolutely insane, because I have a wonderful life).

I'm looking for people who understand some of the aforementioned. I'm looking for those who will keep me motivated to express what I'm feeling, on the worse of days or the best of days.

I'm looking for my people.

Hey there!!
I'm new to this community, not to LJ.
I'm 26, female and would like to make some friends. I'm looking for my twin soul too. Sometimes it's too hard for me to have a boyfriend, all my friends say that people don't approach to me bcs they think I'm very serious but when they know more about me the notice that there's a lovely and great person here. I'm just very selective with my friends so... I think that's why Others think I'm serious but I'm really not.
I like swimming, skating and extreme sports. I like reading and love writing. I love the beach and going out with friends. I like helping others.
As I said at the beginning m looking for my twin soul, I'm a romantic girl and someone who believes that real love still exists in this world. I'm looking for someone with whom share my happiness and sadness. Someone who really loves me and respects me as the woman I am.
Feel free to add me if you just want a friendship too :) I'm looking a man but friends (women or men) are welcome too :)
Thanks

New Chick to LiveJournal
cheshirecat726
I decided this would be the best place to start posting! I am new to LiveJournal and I am hoping to make a few pen/chat/phone friends. I am 26 and graduating with my BA within the next two months. I am excited and this also means I will have a bit more free time to chat, one of my favorite pastimes lol.

I generally keep friends that are older than me. I enjoy a good, long conversation that does not revolve around cars or football. I have a very strong interest in psychology and my master's degree will likely be in psychology. I love talking about all things psychology related, even if it is just discussing someone's thoughts or feelings.

Send me a hello if you feel like it and we will see if we develop a true connection!

It's that time again...

Hi! My friends list is a bit lonely these days so I come here in hopes to fix that. I'm 23 and a college student, but currently taking this semester off due to health and other personal issues.

This is plucked from one of my private "about me" entries on my journal. Once you've added me, you can read the whole thing here.


Executive Summary:
I'm an introverted, wanna-be intellectual who has a passion for learning, teaching and loving people tangibly. I have a disability but try my very hardest to not allow it to disable me. I draw my inspiration from others' stories and consider myself a perpetual student of what it means to be a human being. I am mostly happy but my brain is conditioned to see corruption and injustice in ways such that I can't ignore it to satisfy my own sanity. As such, sometimes I'm known to stir the pot but I always try to do so respectfully and in love. I enjoy debate because it helps to stimulate the progression of knowledge. This love for debate does not extend to the personal decisions that people make about their own lives.


My interests are very diverse and as such, I'm looking for any and all kinds of stories to follow.

Interests -
Sports: MLB (Atlanta Braves), NHL (Nashville Predators), NFL (Atlanta Falcons). Sometimes I care about & watch March Madness basketball. If that should happen, I pull for the Tarheels.
Music: Too much. Here's my Last.fm for an idea.
Books: My new and incomplete Goodreads
TV/Movies: Good scifi like Dr. Who, Torchwood, Warehouse 13, Firefly/Serenity, The 4400, Les Revenants, Heroes, and so on. I also like gritty crime dramas and corruption/war themes. And documentaries!
Random things: Current events, foreign policy, yoga, volunteering with kids and animals, froyo, spirituality, amateur tech-geeking and being an Android/linux snob...respectfully, of course ;)


If you think we could possibly get along, feel free to go ahead and add me :)

New to the community.... (Insert wave)

When I finish my BSN I want to go to Frontier for their combined Family Practice, Womens Health and Midwifery program. So, a family practice and midwifery doctorate. I am really into the more natural side of women's health care and child birth, but I mostly just support women in their right to choose the health care they desire. I usually maintain a 4.0, and am at the top of my class. I have a Biology minor and recently got inducted in the the Tribeta Bilogical Honor Society. I love science. I also got inducted into Alpha Chi, an honor society for the top 10% of students. And I got inducted into Sigma Theta Tau, an honor society for nursing.

* My husband and I own a fixer upper house that we are slowly making a home.

* We spend a lot of time kayaking, we own our own, camping, hiking, fishing, and generally doing outdoors stuff. I love reading and read quite a bit when I have time to read things outside of school work. I also love music, theater, science, and am an avid bike rider. I cook and bake a ton.

* I am an atheist, but I am very accepting of everyone's religious choices provided you respect mine.

* I am extremely liberal except when it comes to gun control. I have a concealed carry permit, own several weapons, and am a very responsible gun owner.

* I am really social so I post alot about that. I am also really getting in to TTC so there will be a lot about that. The rest is about my dogs, school, my relationship, and my day to day life.

* I currently have two jobs as a private nurse for two different clients. This is on top of going to school full time.

* I am president of my schools student nursing association and I'm on the diversity committee.

If you think we'd hit it off I would love to be friends.

Secret Social Experiment Discovers Global Awareness Toward Enlightenment
Nic Farman
It has been made clear, very clear, through the study of science, through spiritual teachers and religious scriptures as well as philosophers, ancient tribes, cultural understandings, evolutional theorists and Mother Nature herself, that our planet and its inhabitants are experiencing an unprecedented change.

The ‘Age of Conscious Awareness’ the ‘Critical Mass’ the ‘Awakening of the Worlds Mind’ the ‘Enlightenment’ or however it is named, is a global topic of immense interest and concern.

The Secret Experiment (The Enlightenment) will capture the moment in time where the collective consciousness becomes the greater balance of each individuals self-awareness. You should have no doubt that this will happen in our lifetime and be aware that you are already participating. The outcome of this experiment is to reach the critical mass needed to obtain global conscious awareness.

The term ‘critical mass’ (from a social dynamic view point) can be used to describe the amount of sufficient momentum needed in a social system so that the momentum becomes self-sustaining and fuels further growth.

As an example, consider walking through a city on a busy evening. If you were to stop on the walkway and look up toward the stars, nothing will happen. People walking by will go on about their business. If 3 people were to join you in looking toward the night sky, perhaps others passing by may momentarily turn around, look up, but then continue on their way. It may be that only a small number of people is required - say, 5 to 7 (depending on such factors as the culture, time of night, width of the street, etc.) - to cause others to stop and look up at the sky too, thus creating a domino effect that causes the majority of people walking by to stop and look up. This number is called the "critical mass".

The Secret Experiment (The Enlightenment) is about you making a choice, a choice to look toward the stars and join the already growing number of people striving for a better world, a world where people are kind and considerate of others, a place where a common belief is to nurture and sustain our planet. It is about participating in the discovery of enlightenment as individuals and as a society. It is about joining the momentum and activating the law of attraction to help reach the critical mass needed for a spiritual global conscious awareness.

お会いできて嬉しいです。

Dark Mistress
sugar_elixir
I am forty, random, happily married, and a bit of a flibbertigibbet.

I left LJ for a short while. Couldn't go for good, apparently. The time away was needed though.

Sparkly new user name, same ol' entries.
Everything else cleansed.

I don't always remeber to comment, but I do read posts. (So, half a gold star!)

Random Rambles:

artistic vibes. The more creativity the better. Seeing idea's, WIPs or finished projects is a huge treat to see on my feed. Photographs of the projects are even better!
I like trying different crafts. Fiddling with drawing and crochet currently. I am a bit of a flighty soul at the moment. So I just delicately dabble.

bookish. I love books. Both digital and paper books make me happy. My tastes vary, but at this moment I am reading urban fantasy, mystery, books that lean towards the humourous, and horror.

pets. I love animals. We have animals. Sharing your animal tales and photos are lovely to see.

beauty boxes. I have subscriptions to Julep, Topbox, BeautyBox5 and ipsy , so I may ramble about things I get in those once in a while. I don't think I'll be sticking with the subscription thing much longer though.
I have a bit of a nail polish addiction. I blame my Julep subscription, as well as the online dollar store I order from.

work out. I try to get a minimum of 14,500 steps every day. Which means using a treadmill daily, plus trying to stay off my booty and active during the day. I am far from where I want to be, and so I may talk about that from time to time.
I use fitbit to track. So, fitness buddy!

family issues. Finally accepting and coming to terms with the non-love of narcissistic blood-family. Went from low contact to NC recently, and am still working though a lot of things.
If you are uncomfortable with that, don't add.

watching: Doctor Who, the Originals, Big Bang Theory, 2 Broke Girls, Downton Abbey, Selfie, Bad Judge.

need to catch up on: Walking Dead, Mentalist, Bones, Castle and Dexter

I want more friends who write about stuff like:

  • an interaction they had with someone that made them realize something new

  • their introspective, thorough, and specific take on concepts that are often assumed to be the same for everyone: friendship, romance, sex, gender, relationships, parenting, etc

  • an experience they had that conveyed deep meaning to them

  • their specific desires, especially ones that aren't common

  • their core values and how they live them

  • events in their past that shaped their present

  • previous intense relationships (friends, family, lovers)

  • their daily life and how they learn from it (not interested in a recap without the thoughts and feelings that went with it)

  • their spirituality and how they invest in it (ritual, meditation, prayer, self-education, etc)


If any of this is stuff you write about regularly, add me please! and I'll add you back.

Paul. 28. Midwest. Econ major, goth musician, and bartender extrodinaire.

I've been using Livejournal since the summer before 8th grade, which was, by my calculation, fourteen years ago. Livejournal is my favorite site, and the only place I have consistently made serious friends online throughout my online experience.

My journal is a mish-mash of dating/relationships (85%), my music career or lack-thereof (10%), and the occasional internet nostalgia piece (5%). My girlfriend is currently in the system (jail) and will be for some time, so I write a hell of a lot about that. Be forewarned; I am Livejournal's resident psycho boyfriend and have come to terms with that.

If you think we'd hit it off or are interested in following my crazy life, leave a comment here or on my journal letting me know you added me. <3

In need of new friends
