speculating
2003-01-16 :: 6:29 a.m. main entry: spec�u�late Pronunciation: 'spe-ky&-"lAt Function: verb Inflected Form(s): -lat�ed; -lat�ing Etymology: Latin speculatus, past participle of speculari to spy out, examine, from specula watchtower, from specere to look, look at -- more at SPY Date: 1599 intransitive senses 1 a : to meditate on or ponder a subject : REFLECT b : to review something idly or casually and often inconclusively 2 : to assume a business risk in hope of gain; especially : to buy or sell in expectation of profiting from market fluctuations transitive senses 1 : to take to be true on the basis of insufficient evidence : THEORIZE (speculated that a virus caused the disease) 2 : to be curious or doubtful about : WONDER (speculates whether it will rain all vacation) synonym see THINK source: m-w.com i guess since my diary is new, i should probably introduce myself. meh, not like anyone is actually going to read this anyways... all i will say is i am female, late teens, recovering from an e.d., depressed, trying to find a balance, and always speculating on my existence. i am hoping by remaining known only as speculating here that i will be able to avoid someone i know discovering this diary. i had one of these a long time ago but people i know discovered it so i gave up and wrote in an offline diary. i really like the feel of an online diary, though, so i thought i would give it another shot. this diary is mainly going to be mindless thoughts on how i feel about myself and me pondering things. not day-to-day type stuff that you see in most diaries. i may write here often or i may not. depends on how i am feeling on a given day. anyways... here goes nothing. if anyone is reading this, thanks, i love you with all my heart.
