Please don't kill me.
Other people can have live journals for whatever their reasons. I personally believe that the major purpose of them is to whine about how crappy their life is, but have lots of people give them sympathy. Only a few that I have seen haven't been about that, but they occasionally have a post that matches the previous description. Most journals are a great example of mood swings. Post 1: HAPPY! 2: ANGRY! 3: SUCICIDAL! 4: CRAZY-HAPPY! 5: NERVOUS BREAKDOWN 6: GENOCIDE! and repeat.
Apparently all the journal users. That's the thing. "Private" life. It's a public journal, and you put all your "private" feelings on there? Of course, most of the journal sites also come with an option to "lock" your journal so only people you specifiy can read it. That may be the only good thing, in my opinion, about the journals. It becomes an easier way to tell all your friends without typing your angst over and over again.
