Just thought I'd pop in for a quick update.



Sorry for vanishing from discord without a trace. I've been really busy with life (school, family, friends, swimming, college apps, major depression, and boundless more oodles of fun!) and haven't had a ton of time to check chat or keep up with the community. I didn't want to make a big fuss about leaving, so I just left--in hindsight, probably could have at least said something, but can't change the past now so it's not worth worrying about. I still <3 you all though, don't worry.

On a slightly more interesting note, here's a list of other things that have happened:
  • So it turns out I'm actually a girl. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  • I got a bomb-a** new pourover coffee maker and I'm super hyped because I absolutely live for good coffee and this is 50x better than a french press or auto-drip machine. If you like coffee, invest in the good stuff. It's so worth it.
  • My family is becoming relatively more stable, yay. Also the older I get, the more I realize how dysfunctional it was in the past and how that might actually be a pretty deep root of a lot my problems. Ask me about it some time, I could probably talk for hours. (not right now tho)
  • I've been going out of my way to listen to as much music that's new to me as possible. Hit me up with good recommendations if you have any. Also my new year's resolution is probably gonna be related to this if I bother coming up with one.
  • I stopped making fun of biology because it turns out it's actually a super cool science. Apologies to everyone I made fun of in the past for liking it, because there's a good chance I'm gonna go into chemical/biological engineering in the future.
  • I swim butterfly now. BIGGEST. MISTAKE. OF. MY. LIFE. *sobbing from exhaustion*
Anyway, that's enough about my life. I'll try to pop in on the chat and stuff a little more frequently in the future if I have time. I miss you guys :C



Catch you on the flip side. ✌️

HOW DARE YOU ABANDON YOUR BREAKFAST BUDDY

Seriously though, I'm glad you didn't vanish for good, we were all concerned! I'm glad things are looking up for you too :D You've missed some pretty major stuff - most noticeably all the discussion on Discord related to the forum overhaul stuff. Long story.

btw I love the fact that you casually state the first bullet point then immediately start praising your coffee maker
