For all intents and purposes, this journal is closed and the majority of posts locked.

I used to keep this journal up with my website, but I've left both to decay. It's sad, but I'm unable to care for either in the way I would like. My actions to leave were fueled partially by the unnecessary, and unceasing, politics and drama of the Harry Potter fandom; however, I needed to take myself away from the realm of computers and be with the people who mean the most to me.

Furthermore I'm older now and the person who wrote this journal is not the same person anymore. I read my old entries and think, "Wow, I don't like this person very much" or "Wow, she's immature," and then I realize that it's me. Was me, anyway.

I switched journals at the beginning of my college career in 2004 to be able to explore myself without feeling as if I had to tailor my thoughts to the people reading this journal ("friend" list-wise or no). I also figured no one really cared that much anyway, as it's just a fandom full of strangers.

This isn't so much a farewell as it is just a redundant post. For those who did care, you know I abandonded livejournal and my website. You may even know where I've gone. It's all a bit meaningless now, since I barely post.

I like hearing from old friends and you're welcome to send me E-mails, but for the most part I am done with this journal.
