interesting things for a blogger.

1: Poetry. I love reading other people's poetry. Generally, it's not as good as mine, but some of it is kind of inspired. I really like in depth, emotional, feeling poems. Like about breaking up, and life being shit, that kind of thing.
2: Self awareness. This is totally the sort of thing I am interested in as well. Writing about your personal experiences and feelings is one of the most revealing things, especially with tears, suicidal thoughts, and really getting in touch with your feelings.
3: Emotional spectrum. I love to know HOW people are feeling. I'm very in touch with my own emotions and like to associate a colour chart to them. If I had the inclination, I'd blog about it but I'm kind of writing poetry about it instead and saving it up for my first publication.
4: Life experiences. Heavy issues like school, breaking up with your girlfriend, that kind of thing. It makes me feel like, wow, I'm not alone, and wow, your life is so much shitter than mine.
5: Family issues. Doesn't just every tom dick and harry have family trauma now? Not that I'm complaining. My family kicks the crap out of all the sad stories I've read in blogs, but it's nice to know that some other people suffer out there, if not as acutely as me.
6: Love. Unrequited love, unfullfilled love, broken hearts, these are all awesome blog topics. The joyful ones are just, so not right. Don't people understand that nobody CARES how content they are? They should just take their smug happiness elsewhere. It's so cliched.
7: Poetry. I actually wrote a little piece especially for this entry:my lifelike a river of despairflows thu deep watersif onlyi could drown!That's the kind of thing I'm talking about.
8: Music tastes. It's so important to know how other people are feeling about the music scene, so that we can keep up with all the coolest bands and stuff. I hate being left behind, and being the only one without the right t-shirt or whatever. So blogs about music are awesome.
