On 2000-01-15 03:54:52 I moved my lazy ass and started writing the following piece of crap:
OK, so Nuwanda is a stupid name. Just like Schlomo, I like my other name better. Much better. That's why I've decided to close Spotlight down. At first it was fun to have so many visitors (up to 70 visitors each day) and to know that I do have some readers. It was good to boost my ego. But then I felt so exposed. I felt like I no longer had privacy, now that everyone could find this diary through Yahoo! It's kind of hard to explain but the main idea is, I want to keep on being true to myself and true to everyone. I don't want to fictionalise anything in my diary. I want to be able to write anything I want in my diary without having to worry that my boss would find out or someone who knew my boss would find out. I want my freedom back.I'm going to start fresh somewhere else. I'd still be in Diaryland if it's any consolation to you, but I will only give the address if you email me for it. I promise I won't be picky. I've already got a new address for my diary and it really excites me. A blank web space to me is like a blank canvas to a painter. I can't wait to start messing around with it. This time around, I might not stick my pictures on top of the page, but if I decided to put up some pictures anyway, they wouldn't be as huge as what you can see up there. It's not because I'm ashamed of how I look or anything. God knows I'm not. I just want to increase my level of anonymity, that's all. And this time I swear I'm not going to submit this diary to Yahoo! I've learned my lesson. Fame just doesn't become of me.
So, I guess this is it. I've never been very good at saying goodbye but hey, this is not goodbye! I'm only one email away from you so please, please, please don't give up on me! Don't hesitate to ask for my new address! The new diary might not be up and running until Sunday (Jan. 16), though. But you can't be too early to ask for the address.
Finally, I'd like to thank my all-time biggest supporter Schlomo, Alice, June, Andres, Jenny and all other Diarylanders who have declared their undying love to me. Heh. As if! I hope you would keep on reading me and, as annoying as it may sound, would email me for the address because if you don't, I swear I'm going to email it to you! Yes, that's a threat. And I'm going to torture you with my less than perfect English *evil laugh* Is that scary enough? Well, just email me, OK? I'll see you around!
