Same goes for reading, same goes for talking to people.
I love writing because I'm good at it, and my ideas are best expressed on paper (or online, thanks to Al Gore and the Internet). This is true, no matter what I'm writing about. It could be anything from a blog about how amazing I am to a 20-page paper about environmental awareness. Wither way, it's an A+, unless whoever's reading is completely crazy and hates my arrangement of words.
I hate writing when people tell me to. Even when it comes to something I probably would have thought up to write out myself, I still will LOATHE doing it, only when someone even suggests that I write it. I don't know why...I can't stand it. Like for example, the other day, someone asked me to "please write out my spiritual testimony" for them on Facebook. I have yet to do it. Of course, that's something I'd be glad to write, and I'm sure I have a lot to say. If she had given me like 5 minutes before she asked me, I probably would have done it myself anyway. BUT...the problem is...it's homework now. Homework I'd love to do, but still...an assignment. That's like putting my brain in a box.
Well, my brain is in a box...called my head...but you know what I mean. I'm not free to think, all of a sudden. I don't know, it's weird.
As a matter of fact, I do have a 20-page paper on environmental awareness due this Saturday at 5pm. Guess when I'm going to turn it in...probably 5.30, or Sunday. Because even though I have enough information to let the world know what's going on, more so than they would ever want to know, I DON'T WANT TO WRITE IT ALL DOWN. That sucks. I feel like it's a waste of time. I mean, I JUST did a presentation on it a couple days ago, do you really want me to write down everything I JUST SAID???!! *sigh*
AND...IT'S BORING. Who the heck wants to read all that? Which brings me to reading. I love to read. I WILL NOT read something someone tells me to read, even if it's proclaimed to be the best book in the world. It was already hard enough to get me to read the Bible, and I'm not even good at getting into that every single day. BECAUSE people tell me I have to read it every day!! This could be a problem I might have with authority, because God says I should read it every day too, and I'm like "yeah right." I dunno, maybe in order to get me to read a book, you should leave it somewhere that I will most obviously see it, and hope that the idea of reading it will cross my mind. Like a booby trap or something.
Also, Don't tell me to call or talk to or ask anyone anything. I won't do it. Sorry.
However, I am great.

Wow... Love/Hate, huh? I don't know if mine affinity toward writing is love/hate... I love doing it... I just feel lazy about it most of the time.... Whatever happened to that blog about how amazing you are? I'd like to read that one... though I already know how amazing you are.
On a side note... I think it's rather surprising that you have only written 3 blog entries... I mean, come on, where's that inner nerd that you were talking about?
um...i wrote a bunch more than three. and i don't write on here because hardly anyone reads, and that makes this useless until i become famous or something.
THAT WAS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO prideful MISS!!!
