No, I'm not dead.

Hey there.

Long time no see.

Well, ahhh... *fidgets nervously* I know I've been terrible at posting. But to be honest, Animal Jam just doesn't have much appeal to me anymore.

That's probably the case because I've found my own pocket of happiness and belonging in real life. And right now, I'm really happy. 

Happier than I've been in a long time.

Anyways, I'll probably post here frequently again. But less daily item posts, and more whatever strikes me. But don't worry- the posts be even more lengthy and interesting! c:

Now, here's my New Year's gift to you guys:

Thanks so much. For the views, the heartfelt comments, the laughs- everything. <3

Now, here are a few random memories from this year (in "real life"):

• Watching sepia Autumn sunrises in the mornings.
• Walking home in the rain and getting completely soaking.
• Being told that I was pretty, which made me feel like a happy, floaty helium balloon for hours afterwards.
• Swimming in the ocean in Hawaii and floating on my back.
• Tasting a Pumpkin Spice Latte, then deciding that it was way too thick and cinnamoney to actually enjoy.
• Ranting in class about school not being canceled, even though the roads were like slushy battlegrounds.
• Laughing my head off and being stared at like I was insane.
• Taking like 5896983276-bajillion photos of the sunset over the beach.
• Going on long walks in the crisp air.
• Observing other peoples' facial expressions.
• Being (almost) tricked into singing in public by a friend.
• Going on a 9-hour plane flight on a plane the size of blimp with two separate aisles (gasp!)

Comment a few of your memories, if I feel like it!(:

Ciao.
