Thank You, All of You · 10:56am Aug 23rd, 2015
I haven't said this in a while thanks to me losing sight of what's important in life, but thank you, all of you, for being who you are and acting like you do. I've been in a rough spot for the past month of so. After a terrible week involving me nearly doing jail time and then subsequently dropping out of college due to my inability to do anything right in life, namely save money for transportation TO college, I was thrown into a rather deep depression, especially when I nearly did legitimate time in prison for a ridiculously naïve and stupid mistake, one that I'm so grateful didn't have fully realized consequences. I'm going to keep the details behind that personal because I'm deeply ashamed and disappointed in myself that simply thinking on the subject sends my emotions through a hurricane.
It was pretty bad for a few days. I nearly broke into tears multiple times after I dropped out of my classes, and once I finally broke the news to my dad, the tears finally rolled out, and I cried, deeply, for the first time since my aunt died a year ago. So many things have been going wrong in my life, so much so that I feel as if I've lost control and perspective. It eats at me every day, and I have to distract myself in order to not be brought down by dark thoughts.
But . . .
I'm feeling better. In fact, I'm feeling quite a bit better. I haven't felt so good in weeks! Why? Well, because I spent time here, remembering all the stories I've read and people I've met. All the things I've done and fun I've had. The time I spent here on this site has been amazing, and in my darkest time, it's still there to brighten my day.
So thank you, once again. I don't know where I'd be if I hadn't decided to take up fan fiction, but I do know that I'm better for it and feel better because of it. And that's what counts.
Thank you.
*HUGS!* I'm glad we can be a source of happiness for you. Friendship is magic!

Oh dang, you're not going to that college we talked about a few months back?
Sorry to hear about the stuff your going through. Don't be afraid to pm me if you want.
We're here for you buddy. And don't lose sight of what's important in life. Is that it isn't about the mistakes you make, it's about learning from them and being stronger. But sometimes even the toughest guys cry, and we're here for that. We'll always be faithful.

Aw man, that... sucks for lack of better words. But you're smart, dare I say it, you're a genius. You'll bounce back. And of course, we'll always be here for you.
Until Hasbro C & D's the whole site.

Unfortunately not. I ended up getting applied and everything, and yet I still never went. If I had a stable mode of transportation, I would have gone through with it, but all alternatives seem to weigh down the learning experience and make it more difficult to do well in classes if I'm stressing about how I'll get to school everyday ALONG with rides to work.
So it wasn't an easy thing for me to do. I want a higher education, but I can't achieve that until I get my life together.

Of course. I appreciate the concern.

Yep. No one is immune to crying, especially me. Sometimes we all need a good cry to have that moment of clarity.

And now that you've said that, you've jinxed the entire site into oblivion.
