Ode to PostSecret

November 29, 2007

So in an effort to maintain my previously sworn Internet integrity, I have decided that at the end of each entry I will include one secret about myself.  They might be embarrassing, known to some, boring, interesting, or just something I think is unique to me, but they will not be known to the masses.  Thus, even when I do not necessarily post something that requires an emotional commitment on my part, it will include one no matter what.  This forces me to stand by what I post since a part of me will literally be attached to each one.  Yes, I will admit that I like to think of it as my own little Postsecret.  I will not use or include names or pseudonymns, you might be able to tell it’s you, but I will never confirm or deny this.  It either is or it isn’t.  One final disclaimer- Telling you the secret doesn’t mean I have to tell all the related secrets, the entire story, or explain myself to anyone.  It just is.

On a night after visiting home I returned to our place of residence and had to stop outside and cry in the cold.  Our cramped residence hall made me feel more at home than my Dad’s mansion ever could.
