hmmm...  Am SO tired... fell asleep on top of the keyboard just now, but woke up pretty soon. Good thing no one came into the office - would have looked pretty weird... I have gone through so much coffee this night... can't really remember last time i drank that amount of coffee... My entire tube is gone, and I have started to dig into my friends instant coffee as well... oh well, no one said uni should be easy (well, that's not entirely true tho... I said that uni should be easy, and for the most part it is...) The sun is up now, and everyone has come to work. Strange now to think that I was here the entire night... in the dark. Well, my eyes and my caffeine level tells me that it did really happen, but somehow it seems unreal now...

I was reading some of the other blogs here, and i started thinking about what it is we r really doing here. We r more or less publishing our diarys on the net. Is it the fact that it will be strangers who read it, or don't we ever get really personal and messy in our entries? I read this girls blog, and she was quite worried and frustrated about her boyfriend... would she think it would be alright if he read it, or is her blog just for strangers? If it is for friends as well (which I believe mine will be), I will also monitor what I am writing. If i knew that none of my friends would ever stumble over this blog i reckon i would have allowed my self to be more personal and free in my entries (not to mentioning complaining about friends as well... ). Anyway, i do find it strange that we r able to be more personal in the eyes of totally strangers than we would in front of our friends, even tho i know it's very typical, and it's because we can mask us with anonymousity...

these blogs that keep popping up around the net also witness of great vanity... Have we become a world full of reality-tv personalities. Where everyone wants to publish their life, so everyone can make sure that no one else is really having more fun or doing anything more intresting than them? Why do we have this urge to tell the world about our life? Of all the blogs i've read, i must say that i find very few interesting... (ok, i am aware that others may find my blog totally lame as well... don't worry, i include my self in this ). The one part is the urge to tell others about our life, on the other hand, why r people so interested in knowing about someone elses life? Is it a hope that if i read enoug blogs, i will be able to reassure my self that i am perfectly normal... or maybe a bit interesting? i must admit that some blogs r very interesting - mostly the ones who had something to say, and did not use their blog as just another diary... 'today i went to the shop, then i met a friend, we had coffee...' Do people really think their life is so intresting that others should know about it?

On the other hand, one should maybe just disregard everything i write now, as i think the lsat braincell which is awake is totally hyper on caffeine, and probably jumping around and doing things i don't really want to know about...
