Why I Have an LJ + DW

I started my LJ in mid-2008 mainly for fandom purposes but it kind of turned into a dumping ground for my RL rants / activities etc. and it just became really disorganised. I have considered purging my journal many, many times to start afresh but I couldn't do it because each one of those entries, no matter how trivial or stupid, were a reflection of my thoughts and a record of my life.
So I figured, why not create a new journal? My LJ could remain as my dumping ground for the more fluffy happenings in my real life while my DW could be a place where I post my short write-ups and muse about the world (and pretend to be the precocious individual that I am not, hehe). Everything's still in the experimental stage so I'm not exactly sure if this will all work out but let's just pretend that it is indeed working out, ok?
