I just deleted/removed my entire neighborhood here on Vox.
Meaning, this is the end of this blog...
I have been evaluating people's (from real life friends to online friends to even some family) intentions a lot lately and realized that i should be more careful who i let into my thoughts/personal space.
I always try to see the good in everybody and do the whole innocent before being proved guilty thing, but truth is, not everyone has the best intentions.
Blogging to me had always been a way for me to offload things that i
have on my mind. Thus, my blogs had always been very personal, which is
why i always kept it "friends only". I've never tried to force
my opinions or mannerisms on anyone else, i just keep true to myself
and write what i feel/my thoughts and whats going on in my life.
But the comfort level of doing that had been breached lately when i
started to realize the judgmental and combative nature of some folks. I
realized that i may not be the "conventional" blogger or even
person, but i am me, and well, thats all i can ever be. I will never
try to fit into anyone's mold or bend myself to impress anyone.
People are always going to be judgmental of things they do not understand. It not only calls into question their true character, but exposes their insecurities, because lets face it...if someone was secure in themselves and their decisions, there will be no need/use for turning up their nose at others.
I had a lot going on with this blog and i opened myself up to quite a
number of you, but maybe some people can't quite keep up/understand,
and you know, thats perfectly OK. Not everyone can be everyone's cup of
tea in life. =)
I have been quite privileged to have met/interacted with quite a good
number of pretty good people through my blog mediums, be it xanga,
livejournal, vox or myspace, so all is not lost =). I do hope that i
would be able to continue building those good relationships with those
kind of people.
To that extent, i have started a new Vox blog (because i didnt want to delete this one since it has a lot of content archived). I figured its always good to start on a clean fresh start.
So, if you are interested in still reading from me, add my new blog to your neighborhood.
But please please please, do not add me if you:
- Are any form of judgemental or combative... understand like i mentioned before that not everyone is going to be everyone's cup of tea...if you don't like me or what i say/do for any reason, please do not add me. Trust me, it wouldn't give me any sleepless nights =). I have never solicited comments/adds from anyone, and have always left the choice of readership to the reader....that's never going to change.
- Never read me/comment... i've never in my blog life been starved for comments, but i just dont see the point of adding someone who you never read or comment. I understand that i do write long blogs, because hey, i have a lot of thoughts and ideas...and thats me! If thats not your cup of tea, trust me...i wont be offended. =)
- Only want to see my pictures. I say this in the nicest way possible, please just visit my website if thats the case www.may83.com. You can view all the pics to your hearts content there.
- Are only interested in reading me talk about fashion/celebrities/music etc or other impersonal things. I say this also in the nicest way possible...there are sooooo many blogs out there catered to that medium. My blogs have always been of a personal nature. Maybe i may touch upon those things occasionally, but thats not all that encompasses my life. If thats all you want to read, you will NOT enjoy my blog and please do not add it.
- Act holier than thou... please please take that somewhere else. Thats never been how i've been and thats never going to be anything i appreciate or tolerate.
- Are a generally negative person. I know everyone can not be positive all the time, but if negativity if your forte, there's no need to read me, you'll just be annoyed, because well...i am a very positive and optimistic person. Thats just how i've always been. If you think i live in a fantasy world for that, its ok. You have a right to your own opinion, and i have a right to remain who i am =).
Please please dont think i'd be any kind of offended if we were cool and you dont add me. Trust me, i'd rather just ONE single genuine friend than a truckload of people with those above listed qualities. It has NEVER been my intention to get 648026849403 comments per day with my blogs, and thats never going to change.
If you feel me, come along =) Loisrandom.vox.com
Otherwise, i wish you the best in life and all your endeavors...
Peace Out!

Hey You!
If you are reading this and wondering why in the world i havent blogged in so long, its because you dont have access to the "inside" of my site. I actually blog every day, but only those added to my friends list can read it. So if you'd like to read more from me, other than Question of the Days and Vox Hunts, say something and we'll take it from there! =]
Cool? Cool. =]
What is your pet peeve, the one thing which really drives you mad?
Submitted by Beki.
I'd have to say, without a doubt, Slackers.
Especially male slackers (cause call me gender biased, but i see no reason for men to be slackers). But i dont excuse females either, cause its the 21st century. Then, especially slackers who then turn around and complain about their situations, and make absolutely no effort to better their situation, or turn around and blame their case on "the man", or think everything is because they are of a certain race. Yeah. This would have to be number one.
I say to them, if only you'd GET OFF YOUR ASS, then maybe then you might see a change.
"A mature person is one who does not think only in absolutes, who is able to be objective even when deeply stirred emotionally, who has learned that there is both good and bad in all people and in all things, and who walks humbly and deals charitably with the circumstances of life, knowing that in this world no one is all knowing and therefore all of us need both love and charity."
- Anna Eleanor Roosevelt (First lady 1933-1945)
...the answer to my perfume challenge question of which perfume i was wearing that day was
