-=Zuna's Gaian Journal =-
Zuna's journal, enough said.
A really long, emotional entry. Beware.
Just so that you all, in general, will know. This is my journal and like anyone here, I have a right to say what I feel I need to say, even if it may be something depressing or disturbing. I try to choose most of my words wisely and try to state my feelings in a mature manner and I try to think about what outcomes can come from what I write here. Just a little reminder before you read this entry. Thanks:

As of right now, I hate what my Gaian life has become.

I hate how when I try to speak my mind, and usually it is something completely opposite or opposed to what everyone else is usually thinking, I usually get told that I am trolling (Yes, I can understand this), being "dramatic" (This is just downright stupid...), and sometimes that I just need to ******** off (which can be understandable, sometimes), even if I said anything that might have been helpful.

True, sometimes I get the urge to fight back. I get the urge to actually stand up against someone who I feel deserves to be told off. Most of the time, it doesn't do anything productive and/or it gets me in some sort of trouble.

What I dislike even more is when people, especially people I sometimes talk to, suddenly seem to take the other person's side... Especially if they are more popular or if they have been friends with them longer or what have you. It makes me feel like they have turned upon me... Like... They have suddenly become sheep and following the flock.

I don't like to follow any flock. Hell, I like to be as different as possible.

I guess what I am trying to say is... I hate what my personality on Gaia has become. It's not like how I usually am IRL at all. I'm not usually angry or mean or... Whatever.

For some reason, with the way my Avatar looks and even the way my name sounds (even if it does mean, "whore" in Hebrew supposily...), I imagine her as a fiery, not so feminine, bitter and easily angered person.

IRL, I'm not a red head... I'm a brunette. I wish I had red hair though, for some reason... It seems different and appealing to me.

No, I don't wear tight fitting red and black clothes that look sexy... I hardly wear red at all.

I don't have that figure... Pfft... I shouldn't even discuss that. Body image can go in so many directions in a conversation.

And I don't hardly have the guts to personally stand up to anyone... Not even on the phone... It takes alot for me to even try to speak my mind to my own parents, who I haven't even spoken to on the phone nor in person for over 2 years now.

Now I seem to have at least a few other enemies or so on Gaia. A few of you will probably know who I am talking about and I feel their names are not even worth mentioning here right now or ever.

What I do have in common with Zuna is that I have alot of anger, built up inside me. It's gotten to the point that if I see or get reminded of the one person on Gaia that I hate the most that I just want to see them suffer. To see them be humilated or go through some sort of torture that is possible in a chat room. I know that probably sounds sick. That it may sound disturbing.

It's hard for me to even stay on one train of thought right now.

My anger IRL involves mainly from my parents. A few of you have heard at least once how they have put more anger inside of me and what they did to me 2 years back... How my husband and my drunken mother were yelling at each other in the car while I was trying to drive.

It hit me today...

What the ******** am I doing here?

Where is my direction IRL? Am I really this bored?

Why do I insist on staying here on Gaia?

For the first time, I suddenly realized that that I have an actual life outside of Gaia and that I need to live it.

I thought about the entry I wrote before this one and I start crying because I had so much fun with our friends and I was around people that actually gave a ******** damn about me, people that think I am "sweet" and "nice."

... But then I say to myself, "No, you've invested so much. You've been on Gaia since Nov 2003... You ******** donated over $100.00 (even if you knew you wanted to throw that money away)! C'mon, just think. If you stay at least another year or two, who knows what may happen. Who knows how other people will remember you."

Well, it seems pretty clear how some or most of Gaia will remember me.

As a heartless, angry b***h.

I will tell you the truth. Many times when I have tried to fall asleep today after my latest incident with someone (really, two people... More like one person with a pet at their side all the time that occassionally barks when they are given the chance), many negative and haunting thoughts have filled my mind.

I have thought, many, many times that I wanted to just quit. I was trying to find a good enough excuse to actually leave everything here behind.

The truth is that I can't, not yet. Maybe not ever.

What I can do is take breaks, even if they might last over a month or so. I did that once... I worried quite a few people... People that are close to me.

And I started thinking about the few friends that I do have here and especially the ones that I am mainly fond of. I can't name them here for I don't want to hurt anyone else's feelings... Not now... I am tired of hurting people.

They are one of the main reasons that I want to stay. They and my curiousity of where Gaia may go in the future... Even if my fear is that, maybe they will develop into some sort of adult "Neopets." I don't mean with actual pets, but with the constant annoying advertising and trying to sell you crap or someone constantly trying to take advantage of you or scam you, but I have been here long enough to know generally what to look out for anyway.

... In a way, I want to start over. I feel that I can't fully do this though.

There are times that I want to even change my name... And I can't do that to my Avatar.

I don't want to start a new Avatar either. I am proud of my joined date and I want to keep it.

I also want to stay out of trouble.

I've been threatened by one certain green mod before that if I get in trouble with a certain individual again that I will most likely be banned. It's like I have a sword hanging over my head.

Yes, I understand the importance of the TOS. I understand that no one should have to be hurt or to be harmed in any way possible.

But sometimes, I feel certain people deserve it...

Where the hell is this entry going...

Would it surprise you that I have been awake for over 26+ hours as of right now? At least once I try to sleep tonight, at a more normal time, my sleep schedule will be most likely fixed.

I'm not sure what I plan to do on Gaia in the future or where I am going to go or how I am going to spend my time on Gaia, period.

I sometimes like to answer questions in the Q&F, but I don't want people to consider me a "mod-wanna-be" or a "QnFer." Lord knows I would hate to be a Mod. I don't want responsibilies.

I don't like being in a group. It's kinda hard to explain, maybe a few of you or some of you may possibly understand.

Will I ever make some sort of positive difference?

What will become of my Avatar?

What am I going to do?

I guess the best thing to do is take a break and just think on things. :/

If I log on anymore it is because I want to read some journals. Other than that, don't expect me to post in a public forum... Anywhere.

I remember, a long time ago, where, of all places, you met me, moocow, and gretchi, in the ffw thread. Gretchi was doing her best to get ahead and trying to win the wings as a part of a huge wishlist (which I actaully made... that took hours...), Moocow wante dthem as well, and I was trying to win them for a friend. I was pretty new to Gaia, as were you and moocow. I remeber when you posted and I think it was me who first took an actual interest in you... kind of "inducted" you into our group (because by that time, me, moocow, and gretchi had formed our own intermingled friendship apart from everyone else). At this point I want to point out something. I loathe humans. I have for many years and with few exceptions still do and foresee that i always will. The "flock" you mentioned gives me more grief, stress, and anger than I think anyone can realize. With that said, when I find someone who's unique, someone who's not like the other people whom i despise so much (and this is partly a defense thing i realize, but it just takes me time to like people, and most never get as far as being considered for that process)... I hold onto them. Because they are worth the attention, affection, and time of a good friend. I realize gretchi left due to personal and gaia problems (some of which you are now experiencing) and that I am in fact partially to blame for moocow's situation (in conjunction with her crazy parents), and now you're in the situation you are in. I still frequent ffw. i don't do it for the prize. in fact, I've instructed Dori to not give me the wings should I win (but I did half jokingly suggest she give me cash XD;). I stay because that's where my friends are. that where my friends were. That's where my first good experiences lie. There are people there I don't like... there are others I'm indifferent to, there are others I hate, there are others I like talking to, others i'm friends with. Then there's you specifically. You're part of the first real friends I had on here. And as a friend, I care and worry about you. I know how it is to have built up anger, though I try to keep mine from manifesting. I know you have more personal problems than me, more severe, and vastly different. But I'm willing to help, if I can at all. I'll do my best, that's all I can offer. I know how unfair things can be. Like the real world, Gaia has it's own corruption. Certain things hinge on "who you know" and rumors. It's not fair. But you can't let them win. Sometimes, I feel I run on spite. Certain things, I keep pursuing out of sheer spite. I will not allow them to win, not now, not ever. No matter how dirty they fight, I don't give up. I will not allow them the satisfaction. Whatever you do Zuna, know that you're a good person. What other people think doesn't mean s**t unless you give it value. You are a good person, a good friend, and someone that deserves to win. Kepp going. I can't say that "the good guys" always win, but god damn it, if I have anything to say about it, you'll be here as long as you want and it will become some resemblance of what it was when you started.

Thank you DK and Die for your support. Especially you, Die. I know it must of taken alot of time to write that comment and I know you mean it.

I haven't treated you very well it seems lately and I am sorry. I am so very sorry, Die.



Seph, I am not running away. I am taking a break. I think it's more of a responsible act than anything. I feel RL is more important than pixels, don't you?

I know it may be hard for you to possibly understand. I know it may be hard for you to actually give a damn. It's ok, I don't expect everyone to. :/

Sometimes I wonder if I'll just throw my life away for this dumb site. My grades are slipping and I try to take control and I don't know how to anymore. I don't know how people perceive me on Gaia, and honestly, I'm tired of caring, if I ever really did.

In real life, I feel I'm similar to the way I act here. I've never tried to pretend, and if I did, I did it for the safety of appearance. My life is not glorious and I have been in and out of bad situations in my life, and they are not exactly public knowledge and I try to keep it that way. Sometimes I feel like sharing, so I might. But that's only with people I care about.

& I don't know you well Zuna, because I hardly met you in the ASC. But I think we might have more in common than you realize. And sometimes it's nice to have a friend here and there, even if you don't adore them and you could live without them. Even the smallest friendships can make the biggest of differences.

I hope you know, I feel a certain admiration for you. You're an amazing girl, no matter what they say. Because honestly, I don't know anything else. The way you present yourself, and speak. It simply makes me smile, because I know I'm not the only person trying to change the world a little bit at a time. <3.
