Blogging?!?

I am wanting to blog over the internet but still with some privacy. For instance, i can place MySpace private. I am looking for a website of blogging. I only know Xanga, but i do not know how well it works. I only like to shar e my blogs with friends. What are other blog sites i can try?

Also, i am looking for a nickname. My name is Sophia Mo. I am a firm believer in Jesus Christ. Anything that sounds ordinary. Please. :) I like to place God's Hand Maiden, but i like to hear your advise too.

Xanga has fairly basic privacy controls. There's an option where you can limit viewers of certain journal entries to users in a predefined list, but Xanga Classic (the free one) only allows up to ten users on that list. LiveJournal, on the other hand, allows you to restrict entry views to your friends only, and there's no limit to how many friends you can have. I'm pretty satisfied with LJ's interface and ease of use.

Sophia's a pretty name! I go to a college named after you (well, no, but still). As for nicknames... "sophia... _mo"? I don't really do the nicknames thing well. My nickname comes from my agnostic beliefs in religion in general, which is usually personified by guardian angels (who protect and guide) as opposed to the scary, expecting-to-be-feared God. Sophia... "girl_of_wisdom"?
