i'm loving this proactive vibe! (not the "face cream" as one of my students thought was the definiton of the word, but the "taking initiative" attitude =P)
if i understand correctly, em (and shelby) would like to vote for sending out the journals on time, regardless of whether or not they are finished. i'm down for whatever the group wants, but my only concern is that some people will have journals that are incomplete. that would suck! but i see your point, em, and i totally agree. i have another suggestion...
i think that we should all do our very best to send out the journals on time (give or take a few days) in respect for the group as a whole. like i mentioned to cristina a few blogs ago, jotting down some thoughts and decorating it with a sticker or two should suffice! after all, these journals are supposed to reflect us. if we're too busy to go all out, then our pages will reflect the busyness of our lives at the moment. and that's totally cool. remember, it's not supposed to be hard. it's supposed to be therapeutic and thoughtful...it's supposed to help us release emotions in a creative way...it's supposed to be fun! find the joy in it, guys. search for it...it's there. (whether or not you think you're creative enough to do it.)
let's try and think about all the members in this circle of friends shit. (especially those that haven't been able to start yet! ;)) i don't want to see us die!!!
the show must go on!!!
