I am who I am...
It's funny that sometimes by your very existence you can cause hatred, jealously and controversy... and that people generally enjoy blogs where other people are unhappy.
One thing I have loved about 20six over the years is the support that I have been given when I am down, but one thing I have never understood is peoples desire to pull you down when you are happy. Still, I'm still here - so, I do expect it!
I wrote a true entry the other day based on a conversation I'd had the night before that had freaked me out, I though maybe it would be nice to put my thoughts down... I also was interested to hear the backlash. Apparently there has been at least one person who has laid into me - thats cool, to be honest I expected it and I spend so little time here now that I haven't had time to read their response - and to be honest I really don't want to... I'm cool at the moment, so why listen at doorways? But that really is the problem with my blogging at the moment - it's like speed blogging - crammed in between lessons!
If you blog about yourself, I have learned, then you need to expect people to have opinions on it... otherwise you slip into the Jodie Marsh school of argument. You can't complain that people don't have all the facts - becasue at the end of the day they are working on the facts that you have chosen to give them. Some of the facts about me are difficult to manage, often I have felt uncomfortable in my own skin... hell, thats why I started blogging (for those who remember) to begin with.
So, I have a stack of reports to write before I give some kids a test, and normal life will continue for this girl, whatever that is!

(13.1.06 12:03) i'm sorry you felt the need to delete your entry. i enjoy reading blogs from all wakes of life, and yours was a breath of fresh air amidst moaning and whining (inclusing my own!). I'm glad you have a good life, i'm also glad you celebrate it. its very admirable that you are proud of it, and important that you don't let people drag you down to their mire of criticism and so-called elitism, however tongue in cheek it alleges to be. keep working hard, its obvious you're good at what you do. |

(13.1.06 12:12) Hey Chicky.. I think that you should re post your deleted entry. Hats off to you who can be open about things. There are some narrow minded people on this earth it is true.. but without those we wouldnt appreciate peeps like you.. Keep it going.. be real.. we love it. x |

(13.1.06 12:28) Daise, you know you've got support from this angle, you should write what you want, its cool that you're happy, don't let people take it away from you. xx |

(13.1.06 16:17) Please do not let the comments of others affect you in a negative manner. I love coming here and reading your blog. It almost always leaves me with a smile. You rock. |

(13.1.06 17:37) Yes, we love you... just as you are x |

(13.1.06 18:17) Daisy, yours was one of the first blogs I read and was charmed by. And you were the first person to leave me a comment. I loved reading your blog and didn't need to know anything about your 'background' to know that you write good stuff and have a fun, insightful and wicked view on life. It seems to me that's what's important. |

(14.1.06 19:29) That blog you entered was controversial and got me thinking 'that life cant b as bad as mine' but its still your voice and your entitled to it, you shoudnt have deleted your post. Like groupie yours was one of the first blogs i read and you wer one of the first people to make me feel welcomed into this world. Your experiences have always been a joy to read about and i will continue to read it. I do however know i was defo born into the wrong scouse family.lol. Can i b adopted?? |

(16.1.06 18:03) I'm sorry you felt you had to delete your entry, I tried to comment but my PC is being a right little b*gger ar the moment. I don't understand why people have to condemn and try to hurt those who they see as more fortunate than themselves, it doesn't change their situation at all, and if the only pleasure they have is making others miserable, well that's a sad little life they're leading. Yeah, sure you're in a lucky position to not have to really worry about poverty, but your writings haven't been all happy go lucky. It's obvious to your regulars that you have done a lot of soul-searching and are really working hard at a very worthwhile career instead of taking the lazy route that your detractors indicate they'd take in your position. What struck me was that people who go on about inherited money always seem to forget that in order for you to get the money, someone close to you dies. That's the nature of inherited wealth. And I'm sure when that happens, you'd happily give away every last penny to get them back again. I'll miss your blog if you are going to give it up, I've read your blog since I joined 20six. It's been like eavesdropping on one of the popular girls and getting a glimse into the crowd I never could have been part of at school, so thank you for letting me see another view of life and good luck in all you do in the future. |
