Cberversary!

Cberversary!

Hello everyone! I was just stopping by here to post something and realized that..... It's my Cberversary! Yay!  *throws confetti*

Wow..... two years.  

Ok, I think I probably need to say some things.

First off, this place has literally changed my life.

Through this tiny little website in the corner of the internet, I discovered writing. I discovered its beauty, its power. I found out that creating people and places and things out of words wasn't something impossible.

Because my life has changed a lot recently, I haven't had the opportunity to write a whole bunch, but it's still a huge part of who I am. I don't think I can ever express my gratitude to the Admins, (For keeping this place up) and to the rest of you Cbers, (For just being here.) 

Secondly, I probably need to get to the part where I'm honest with myself.

My life has just changed a lot. I'm a homeschooling high school student who has started my freshman year with no idea how much work is going to be dumped on top of me. Admittedly, in the grand scheme of things, it's probably not that much, but I'm having a bit of a hard time adjusting to not finishing school until around five or six, or to being gone all day. I've started taking a college class, started playing clarinet in a band where I feel way out of my league, and am having a harder time with school work. All that, combined with the fact that I haven't really been on that much in a while, has added up to me not really being around. 

I love you guys. So much. I just think that with life going at the speed it's going, I'm going to have to be honest and say that I'm not going to be around a lot anymore. I may join an rp from time to time, but I'm not going to be as active as I used to be.

I'm really going to miss you guys. For the past two years, you have all been my family, and I can't overstate how important that has been to me.

Oh yeah, one more thing. My AE's. Even though I leave, they will always be a part of me. Saphira has Ronan have become parts of me that I doubt will ever really fade. Who knows, maybe they'll pop in for an AE ball occasionally.

OK, sorry that turned so long and melodramatic and emotional and stuff! Anyone who has known me knows how good I am at rambling XD. Anyways, that's about it. Keep being amazing everyone.

Congratulations on two years! It's unfortunate that you're leaving, but life takes its course, and I have no doubt that we'll meet again someday.

Wow, that is quite a milestone! Two years is a long time, and even if you cannot be here as much as you could in the past, you are still a great member. Quality of posts>Quantity of posts.

That's a brilliant formula if I've ever seen one! Thanks, Gared. I really appreciate it.
