You know...I think it's just now starting to hit me that I'm leaving for college in a week...it seems like the summer went by really fast. I really struggled with wether I should post this, since it's mostly me being stupid and sentimental, but I thought I would let you guys enjoy my stupid sentimentality :)
I just want to use this post to say thank you to everyone that I know here on theO. It's been a lot of fun hanging out with you guys for the past 4 years. I can't even believe that...I've been around here since I started highschool, and now I'm going to start college...wow...
I guess I'm just feeling old and sentimental (dumb of me, I know). I know the internet will still be around when I go off to college and I'll still be able to talk to you guys, but I think I'm going to try to get off the internet a lot more.
Pretty soon I have to go and be an adult, get a full time job, plan for the future...sometimes (okay, a lot of times) I wish I was a freshman in high school again...scratch that, make it a sophmore, don't want to be freshmeat. XD
Anyways, I've never been good at talking to people and I feel like I need to get over that. The world isn't kind to you when you're shy. Once school starts up, I'm going to try to be as involved as possible with things in school. I'm going to try and go on as many trips as possible (since it's always been my dream to travel the world). With all that grand plan, I most likely won't be talking to you guys much. But really, you guys have cheered me up more times than you would guess in the past 4 years.
This site also initially got me to break out of my shell. I had never posted my art anywhere or shown it to anybody, so when anyone gave me a compliment on theO, it cheered me up immensely. If you've ever given me a comment, you have managed to brighten my day. :)
I believe some special thank yous are in order. :3
Kasa-chan-
Man, I can't think of a time when I didn't enjoy talking to you. I love how even though we've never met eachother face to face, we still manage to have so many inside jokes. You are also the only person who I have managed to succesfully watch a whole anime series over the internet with. Good luck with the rest of high school! :)
RAMBO MAN WILL FIND YOU WITH HIS RABID BUNNIES! >:D
Fun-chan-
I can remember commenting on your very first fanart you posted here and waiting for you to post more of your art. You really have grown so much as an artist (and your still so young and have so much time to grow). Also, I love your ability to think deeply and then as a result get me to think deeply. Keep drawing, you'll go far in the art world. :D
Kiro-
Kiro, Kiro, Kiro, where to start? I remember when I was still convinced that you were a boy XD. You really are a fun person to talk to, even when off theO (your the first person that I ever talked to over MSN, if you'll believe that). Your art is fantastic, even if you don't believe so, trust me, it is. I also love your randomosity and how that silly randomness can always make me smile. And how you have the bravery to do livestreams, which allowed me to meet other people, and even share your voice with us. :3
P.S. I will forever be a member of TPWRBSSWAARNBYNKTBTNTAAABTM! <3
Icey-
Hahaha, I don't talk to you much, do I? I need to fix that! You're a sweetheart with a strong beliefe in her convictions. You always manage to make up...interesting scenarios with me being the bum that lives on your couch. Even though I haven't known you that long, it's been a lot of fun! :)
Sayura-
What can I say about you that hasn't already been said? You are 100% a sweetheart and you are always so concerned about other people. You're also a very strong girl who has gone through so much in your life, and yet you manage to come out with a smile. I will always love your comments for how indepth and personal they are. Thank you for being such a sweetheart. :3
Suie-
Yes, I'm including you even though I know you in real life and I'll (hopefully) see you before you head off to India. I had so much fun the many many nights we spent on chat. I'm going to miss watching you freak out over all the cute things I show you and getting you addicted to a multitude of anime. Good luck studying to be a doctor. I know where I'm coming when I want a discount~ X3
Britt-
Hm...what's there to say about you. You are honestly like a sister to me. Even though we'll still be able to talk, I'm really going to miss seeing you every day. I'm especially going to miss all of our late night vent sessions (and...talking about...other stuff). Even more than that though, I'm going to miss walking to BNN and GameStop with you every chance we got. You'll be a great teacher some day. :D
Denny-
Denny! You're a sweetheart too! I love reading your world posts because their so random and energetic just like you! You really have a talent for art and I'm glad that I got to share in that talent. I hope that you have fun being sophmore meat this year. XD

Para-
I haven't known you that long, but I love how you let me steal Micah all the time to draw with Gemma. You're also fun to talk to and I hope that I get to know you a little better. :)
Uhm...that's all the people I can think of. If you feel like you should have been included in this list and I didn't include you, I'm terribly sorry!
So, this is a long post with really no point other than I was feeling kind of sad about going to college and I just wanted to let you guys know how much you all mean to me.
With all this being said, I still have a week till I head off to school, so feel free to PM me if your bored or if you want to talk. I'll most likely waste away my last few days of summer sitting on the internet. And I apologize once again if you thought this post was pointless and stupid. If you did, please feel free to ignore this all. :)
Thank you for everything guys!
