The meadow of a fluffy sheep

Hiii, friends! Time for some updates on the past couple of weeks.

In the bit of free time I’ve had lately, I’ve been practicing singing! Some songs that I’m currently singing are Torn by Ava Max, My Head and My Heart by Ava Max (with some of the words changed so it’s more appropriate) and Love Again by Dua Lipa (with some of the words changed so it’s more appropriate). Singing is one of my favorite things to do.

I ordered this really cute autumn dress and it’s coming in the mail today! I’m excited because I can’t recall the last time I’ve worn an autumn dress. I don’t have enough money to pay for faux leather boots that would go with it, but I can just wear my black ones, even though they won’t match perfectly.

I found inspirational quotes to help me get over a few losses that I’m not exactly “over” yet:

One night, I had a dream that a friend and I went to Mars together. We rode on a fancy spacecraft. When we arrived, we skydived onto Mars’s surface with no parachute. We landed on a boulder but were somehow unharmed. There were boulders, mountains, volcanoes, space robots, and space farms. We were going to stay on Mars for three days, but my alarm woke me up before we could, and I was disappointed.

Now that I’m four weeks into school, all the teachers are assigning summative assignments. I’m retaking geometry (I got a C last year), which means I already know all the beginning content, which means there’s at least one easy class, which is a relief, and I also got 29/28 on the first test (because I got everything right plus I did the extra credit). In world studies, we’re doing a culture project. In teen life, we’re doing a teen issues project. I made a 17-slide presentation on transgender issues in teens which I’m presenting in GSA. One of the GSA leaders is presenting it with me. He’s very educated on these topics and he added a lot of insightful input. In science, we have to make a video demonstrating how energy is transferred and stored. And in English class, we’re reading a book called The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time.

School lunch is actually amazing. Here are the options we have every day: the daily main option, the daily alternate option, a cheeseburger, a chicken corn dog, a veggie burger, a chicken patty burger, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and a ham and cheese sandwich. It’s crazy. Eight options. And the food doesn’t suck, it actually tastes decent.

At one point, I was so burnt out that I slept for twelve hours straight. I felt so much better afterward, it was what I needed to recover.

I had another sleepover with my best friend! We baked brownies, I gave her a tour of my high school, I read her part of a book (she’s dyslexic and she hasn’t had therapy for it so it’s hard for her to read), and we watched a show called “Is It Cake?” on Netflix.

We have to write 12 pages for an assignment that’s due on November 10th. I’ve already written 15 pages. I’m pretty proud of myself, haha. So far, I’ve written about my appearance, my personality, my likes and dislikes, about my first two days of high school, a few of my entires from here (I’ll add this one too), things that make me anxious, my friends, a required writing prompt about code-switching, and my goals for adulthood.

Something that I did this week was write down every fragrance from Bath and Body Works and its description. Why? Because I wanted to. The products are expensive for what they’re worth, so my mom can’t afford to buy them, but once I save up enough money I will buy some.

I have A’s in four out of five of my classes, which I’m really happy about!! Well, now I only have an A in three out of five classes, but I’m going to fix that very soon.

In teen life class, we watched a documentary called “Bullied” about a famous gay man named Jamie and his experiences with being severely bullied, harassed, and assaulted in middle and high school. I met him in real life at a queer pride hotel event when I was nine. My mom told me that she’s still friends with him and that she can ask him if he wants to speak at my school! He’s only a couple of cities away.

That’s all for now, I’ll make another post very soon about a stressful situation going on in my family that I just need to get off my chest and share with supportive people.

I meant to post this on September 20th but I forgot- TwT

Time for another entry! Some updates on my life:

I went to the homecoming game with a childhood friend. It turned out to be quite a nice experience. We talked, watched the football game (which I understood 0% of), listened to the band, watched the cheerleaders and dancers, and drank and ate concessions like popcorn and Powerade.

I baked a sponge cake with my friend Cameron, which we ate with whipped cream, raspberries, and strawberry rhubarb jam. Unfortunately, something that comes with having few friends in high school is that you don't get many hugs :') Thankfully, I got hugs from Cameron, which felt beyond good. It's like I've been deprived of them :') In 8th grade, I used to get multiple hugs every day, and now I don't get nearly as many :') I hung out with Cameron again later in the month, and we baked chocolate chip muffins, watched a documentary called "Growing Up Trans," and watched a YouTube channel called "Twisted Translations."

I hung out with my friend Kat. We took a walk, baked carrot cake, read a book, and watched The Baby-Sitters Club on Netflix.

I want to thank this platform and another platform (trevorspace.org) because I shared a 7-page rant about dysphoria and at least six people actually read and replied to it, which I know is a lot to ask from anyone, so I'm very grateful for those people.

I want to give big shout-outs to some wonderful people: @TabbyCat97, @NovaGalaxy, @Khaii, @JasmineFlower222, @FallingSkys, @yourbuddy30, @KateDoskocilova, @vivelespatates, @LavenderHere, @cristlecares, @AmyMir6, @NotALaser: you have shown me so much support, kindness, respect, love, and care while I'm going through a lot. I appreciate it beyond words.

We watched a movie about dating abuse called "Reviving Ophelia" in teen life class. I'm grateful that I'm getting educated about what dating abuse looks like now so that I'm less likely to fall down that rabbit hole in the future.

I'm glad I have my American Girl books ("A Smart Girl's Guide: Knowing What To Say," "A Smart Girl's Guide: Crushes", and "Friends: Making Them and Keeping Them." Make fun of me all you want (don't actually), but they're helpful self-help books for adolescents.

There's this YouTube channel called "Psych2go" and it gives me advice on how to become friends with someone, which, like the American Girl books, has been very helpful because it helps me know what to say to and do around (my crush's name).

I started occupational therapy recently, not because I have trouble with motor skills, but because it's another kind of therapy that can help me with the challenges I have (dissociation, gender dysphoria, anxious attachment, autism symptoms).

I went to the wedding of someone who used to babysit me when I was little. The people there were kind, the food was delicious, and they had chickens and dogs.

I went to a petting zoo with my brother, and we got to pet baby goats! There was a black and white one that he named "Cow."

I went to a national park with my mom and her boyfriend and we hiked four miles! It was very pretty.

My English teacher told me that I'm intelligent and kind, that I care about other people, and that I work hard, which was good to hear, especially from a teacher.

A few days ago, I was having a hard time emotionally with being lonely at high school, so I texted my friend Rosalie for support. She was so caring, loving, supportive, and kind to me that it actually made me cry happy tears. Cameron was also there for me. I'm so grateful for them.

*Checks the time* Oh, yeah! It's time to do a rant about my crush now!!

I have a crush on a girl from my teen life class. She’s in 11th grade (I’m in 9th). I’m not going to say her name in case someone from my IRL life finds this, but she has a pretty name. She has gray eyes and amazing red hair and she’s overall very beautiful. She’s open, kind, and smart. Not just smart at school, but smart at life. Because we have teen life class together, the teacher asks us a lot of deep, reflective questions that we should be thinking about as a teenager, and she has really insightful answers. After about three weeks of talking, we became friends and I sit at her lunch table with her friends. I’ve gotten closer with her over the past two weeks, and I’m very glad I met her. She’s just such a good person.

That’s all for now, thank you for reading! Take care, friends! 🤗❤️

Whew, it's been a while! Time for some more updates!

First of all, I would like to thank @yourbuddy30, @AmyMir6, @Here4good74, @cristlecares, @Strawberryxoxoxo, @FallingSkys, @Khaii, @elwinthisside124, @Estrellitaa, @LavenderHere, and @KateDoscocilova for being such good listeners. Your empathy, care, and support are greatly appreciated.

I had a voice lesson in person for the first time in three years. I started taking voice lessons when I was 10, but then, when I was 11, COVID hit, and we had to go virtual. It was great getting to see my teacher in person again. I can tell she really cares about me.

My friend Cameron and I went ice skating together.

I spent time with my mom Jocelyn and her side of the family over the Thanksgiving weekend. We celebrated thanksgiving and played cards against humanity family edition. I also went Christmas shopping with my grandma, aunt, and uncle.

I visited my aunt to deliver some Girl Scout treats that she had ordered to support my fundraising. Her cat licked me and put her paws on my back to play with my hair.

I baked chocolate chip cookie cake all by myself. It was basically just a giant cookie.

My talk therapist and my skills therapist are helping me manage my attachment issues.

I got through my first trimester of high school with all A’s and B’s! I’m really proud of myself, I was terrified to start high school and the academic part of it can be a challenge sometimes due to my autism.

During teen life class, I did a presentation on transgender issues in teens. Usually, I’m not very good at presenting. I just read off the slides and it gets pretty boring. But I practiced ahead of time, memorized some parts of the slides, and added some more information that wasn't on the slides and I think it was at least somewhat engaging.

When I went to my middle school to pick up my brother (it’s a kindergarten-8th grade school), I saw my 7th/8th-grade math teacher and her 7-year-old daughter who I am friends with. She (the 7-year-old) injured her head somehow and it seemed pretty painful, so I hope she felt better soon (they gave her ice so I’m sure she was okay). Even though I’ve left that (middle school) part of my life behind me, it’s nice to have connections that remind me I’m not completely severed from that part of my past.

This last thing is a big deal because I’ve dreamed of seeing my friends all at once again so many times this school year. My middle school hosted a roller skating party and all of my friends came. My core group of friends is Rosalie, Selena, Nora, Charlotte, and Ava. Then, there are their friends, Sina and Natalia, and Allison and Miryam, who are from a different friend group but who we are friends with, too. I also got to meet Soly, who is friends with my core group of friends and is new to the middle school this year. There was lots of hugging, all my friends said they missed me, and most of them asked how high school was.

Thank you for reading! Take care, keep safe, and have a wonderful weekend.

I’m so excited to finally have a break in the day to sit down and write another entry. It’s been a couple of weeks, and I hope my friends have been doing well.

I’ll start off with the fact that I started my second trimester of high school. This trimester, I have gym, science, nutritional foods (an elective), geometry, and child development (an elective). It’s been going pretty well so far. I don’t like gym (like, at all), so I’m hoping to get through it alright. I like being in a cooking class, but it can get a bit frustrating when my classmates (who I work with in a kitchen and cook with) don’t read the recipe and add ingredients in the wrong order, especially when it’s before I can do anything about it. It’s a rule that everyone needs to read and understand the recipe before cooking or even gathering ingredients, but oh well, some high schoolers are the worst at listening and following directions. My child development teacher is very caring and goes out of her way to check-in on her students and support them in any way she can.

Some songs I’ve been singing lately are: Break My Heart by Dua Lipa, Torn by Ava Max, and Love Again by Dua Lipa.

Rosalie came over! For those of you who don’t know who Rosalie is, they’re one of my best friends and my main attachment figure. We ate skittles, talked, baked brownies, took a picture together, listened to a song from the musical we were a part of, and watched reels on social media. They also did my hair and I told them about this hilarious chat room conversation about ostriches in corsets and buying women in lingerie. Okay, now that I said it, I have to give context so that you don't think I'm crazy 😭 So I was in a 7cups.com chatroom, and people were talking about ostriches. Then someone comes in and starts talking about corsets. So then my friend @DragonPixal started talking about ostriches in corsets and googled "ostriches in corsets." They were shocked at what they found and warned us all not to google "ostriches in corsets." I told them I was going to. They said, "Nooo, you're too innocent" and I said "You know I will, Adrien" and they said, "Whatever you do, don't look at Walmart." So I googled "Ostriches in corsets Walmart" and found a woman in lingerie. The lingerie had ostrich feathers on it. I told Adrien that I found it. They said, "I'm gonna buy it. Everett, can I borrow $45? I won't give it back. If you're lucky, I might pay you back in a really good soup." I roleplayed giving them the money and they said, "Yos, I'm gonna buy the woman. That's how this works, right?" We were both laughing so hard. And that's how you have a conversation about ostriches in corsets and buying women in lingerie. 🤪

CW death

My uncle sadly passed away recently. I was relatively close with him and his death has been very hard for me and my family. My mom, her boyfriend, and I flew out to California last weekend to attend his funeral. It was… very hard. It was good to grieve together with friends, though. It’s better than keeping it in or going through it alone.

My skills worker had us role-play difficult social situations to see how I would handle them, and I handled them fantastically. I acknowledged and validated the other person’s feelings, showed them that I cared about them, their words, and their thoughts, stated my needs and set my boundaries, stayed calm, and looked for solutions. I could tell she was impressed. I’m proud of myself because some of these situations weren’t easy and I handled them very maturely and thoroughly.

I recently started using kids messenger to message with a boy I used to babysit. He moved to India when I was in 7th grade and he was in 5th grade. He’s in 7th grade now, wow. He’s such a nice kid and I’m glad to be talking with him again.

Unfortunately, I was bullied recently. Elena and Charlotte (different than my friend Charlotte) have a history of not being nice to me. Elena is neighbors with my ex-girlfriend and when my ex-girlfriend and I were in 6th grade and Elena was in 7th, Elena would be mean to my ex-girlfriend and make her cry. She’s not a good person. She lies and swears a lot, too. In math class, Elena was pretending to be nice to me but I could tell she wasn’t being genuine and it’s not like she wants to be friends. She and Charlotte were whispering and laughing about me (I heard my name multiple times) when class got dismissed. In the hallway, Elena took out her phone, opened the camera function on Snapchat, flipped the camera so that it was looking at us, zoomed in on me, and took a picture of us. I said, “Why did you take a picture of me?” Elena said, “Oh ****,” looked at Charley, and said, “I- I didn’t, I took a picture of my hair.” I said, “No, you zoomed in on me and then took the picture.” She and Charlotte were laughing awkwardly. I told her, “Delete it. Now.” She said, “I already did,” but she didn’t, otherwise I would’ve seen her do it, which I didn’t. I said, “Show me,” and she opened another photo app and showed me it too fast for me to see anything. I felt unsafe, disrespected, violated, angry, uncomfortable, and upset. I’m so tired of being the target of bullying. I’m a human, I deserve to be treated like one, regardless of how popular I am, how many friends I have, who I used to be friends with, or who I’m currently friends with. It’s not okay for people to take pictures of someone without their knowledge or consent, let alone on a social media app where they can be shared all over creation. Then, the very next day, I’m walking to lunch. This boy happens to be walking next to me. I’ve never met or talked to him, I don’t know his name, and I’ve never even seen him. We weren’t talking or even looking at each other. Kacy and this brunette girl were standing there. I think the brunette girl might be from my middle school, but she was wearing too much makeup for me to tell. Kacy and I used to be friends. Best friends. We loved each other so much. The girl who isn’t Kacy says, “Dude, are you best friends with Everett?” She and Kacy laugh. The boy says, “Yeah, bro. We’re so close. She’s like a sister to me.” The brunette girl and Kacy laugh harder. I look at them and say, “I’ve never met him.” I walk away. Kacy, still laughing, says, “Why would you lie to Everett like that?” They’re so immature… but it still hurt, you know? They think that it’s funny to be seen talking to me because I was/am(?) unpopular, so they talk to me as a joke like that. They treat me as less than human. It’s angering. I’m so tired of being disrespected. Kacy bullied me yesterday because she knew she could. Because I’m nice, and she’s insecure. I told my school counselor, who had me fill out a bullying report, and talked to a behavior interventionist, who said he will talk to the girls after break. Overall an :/ experience.

Take care, everyone! Thanks for reading, as always, and happy holidays to all.

It’s been a busy week! Coming back to my meadow to write an entry is always such a wonderful feeling, and I’m glad to be able to share this with you!

I’ve been age regressing with my caregiver who is a secure base. A secure base is someone who a child has a safe and reliable relationship with to cope with unfamiliar experiences. When I’m in Littlespace, my caregiver comforts me when I’m upset, greets me lovingly when I return, and provides reassurance if I become scared. In this way, rewiring my attachment and reliving my childhood.

Rosalie has been there to support me and I never have and never will take them for granted. They’re so sweet and caring, they understand me so well and care about me so deeply, they love me so much, they’re always there to support me, and there’s no end to their kindness. I love them so much and I’m so lucky to have them in my life.

I was with my grandparents over winter break and my grandpa and I baked delicious chocolate chip cookies with pecans.

My brother created an elaborate, cute scavenger hunt around the house for Christmas. He also claimed that his fish (who is dead and has been removed from the aquarium months ago) is “on vacation.”

I shopped for Littlespace clothes at Target and found these cute dresses that I loved so I ordered them with the gift money I got for Christmas. Here’s what they look like:

Holy banana pants, can you believe it's already been a month since my last entry?! That means it's about time for a new one!!

At the beginning of the month, I went winter camping with my Girl Scout troop and another Girl Scout troop from my high school. Seneca's best friend was there and so were two of my friends from middle school!! They were in the middle school cabin. The first night, we arrived at camp at 11 pm and didn't go to bed until 1 am because we had to unpack, settle into our cabins, and have a group meeting. That threw my sleep schedule off a lot and I took lots of long naps throughout camp. My friends from middle school (Allison and Natalia) and I hiked down a very large hill and all the way back up. It was extremely hard work because the hill was covered in three feet of snow all over. It took hours. I played DIY apples to apples (apples to apples but I made my own cards with my own words) with Allison and Natalia and it was fun.

I got 29/30 on a math test, and I'm really happy about that because I have an A in geometry now.

I've been continuing to do dog agility with my dog, and we're making good progress. I just love it so much, it's so fun and satisfying and I'm in my element when I train my dog.

I hung out with my best friend Kat. We baked apple crisp, played cards against humanity family edition with my little brother, and watched The Babysitter's Club on Netflix and Secrets of Sulphur Springs on Disney+.

Some songs I've been singing lately are Weapons by Ava Max, Used To Know Me by Charli XCX, Million Dollar Baby by Ava Max, How Long by Charlie Puth (with some of the lyrics changed so it's more appropriate), Let Me Go by Hailee Steinfeld (with some of the lyrics changed so it's more appropriate), Remember That Night by Sara Kays, and Never Knew A Heart Could Break Itself by Zach Hood.

I was in the hallway during child development class because the teacher was having the class watch an R-rated movie and I’m not allowed to watch those. While I was in the hallway, I witnessed one of my classmates swear at, yell at, and laugh at a teacher because the teacher politely told her to stop skipping class and to get to where she needed to be. My classmate is Black, and she also accused the teacher (who is White) of being racist because she told her to get to her class, which is highly inappropriate. She was being extremely disrespectful. After the teacher was done dealing with my classmate, I went up to her and said, “Would it be possible for me to talk to you briefly? I understand if it’s not a good time.” She said, “Yeah, sure, go ahead, how can I help you?” I said, “I'm not trying to get into anybody’s business, and I know you’re an adult and you can handle it, but I just wanted to say I’m sorry you had to deal with that because you deserve a lot better and you deserve to be treated with a lot more respect.” She said, “Thank you, I appreciate that. We don’t get to hear that every day.” And it just made me feel like a good, kind person, which is what I strive to be.

At raider time (the choice time we get at the end of the day), I went to the raider time of a teacher who was hosting card games. I brought my DIY apples to apples (I made my own cards with my own words) and invited a bunch of my high school friends. It made me feel so much less alone once I realized how many people at high school cared enough about me to come. Kalia, Kalia’s friend (who I never caught the name of), Seneca, Signe, Lauren, and Rachel all came to play, and a random guy who had signed up for the same raider time joined us. It was a lot of fun, but more than that, it showed me that I have connections at high school, that I’m not alone, that I can do this, and that I don’t need to depend on my 8th-grade friends so heavily. Breath of relief and joy.

I also brought cards against humanity family edition and invited my friends to play in the commons. Miko, Jocelyn, Eliza, and Seneca played, as well as Owen (an ex-friend from 5th/6th/7th grade) who I am on okay terms. I don't want to be friends with him again, but it's good that we don't hate each other or anything.

My table group in science did a presentation on how to solve the water crisis in Louisiana. We did fantastically!! We spoke clearly, confidently, and without looking at the slides too much. We also answered all the questions that were asked well.

I hung out with Nora, one of my 8th-grade friends. We went to the mall. I bought some hair pins from Claire's and a necklace from H&M. Nora bought a cinnamon sugar pretzel and shared it with me and when we went to Barnes & Noble, her mom bought us each a slice of Oreo cheesecake from the bakery. It was sooo good to see Nora again, I missed her so much and she's such a lovely friend.

I go to a junior bowling league on Saturdays and I'm getting a lot better at bowling! I got four strikes.

I have a friend named Jocelyn. She's in 10th grade and I met her through Seneca. We both love animals, and she especially adores cats. It seems like she really cares about me because she puts a lot of effort into our interactions. We've actually only seen each other three times in real life, but we message a good amount. She uses any pronouns and identifies as lesbian, so that's another thing we have in common, that we are both queer and gender-nonconforming. Aside from Seneca, she's probably the person at my high school who is most interested in me. She's also really funny, I love her sense of humor. We plan to sit together at lunch on Monday. She said she has a group of friends she sits with who are silly and into robotics. I also might join theater crew because she said "It'd be rad to see you there."

Just a very long happy rant about Seneca and how she cares about me T^T

I went up to her at lunch and asked if she was doing the talent show. She said she was. I asked what she was going to do. She said she was going to sing a song with three other people and then sing a song by herself. I said ooh cool and that I wanted to come and I asked when it was. She said she thought it was next Wednesday at 7 pm but she wasn’t sure. She said she would message me if she got it wrong and that I could message her if I had any questions. I’ve gotten used to people being embarrassed to talk to me, not wanting to be seen talking to me, and avoiding talking to me for both those reasons because I was unpopular and an 8th-grade outcast. I’ve also gotten used to people talking to me as a joke because I was unpopular. The fact that she, Seneca, who is older and pretty and popular, openly talked to me about messaging each other while there were other people around, made me really happy because I got so used to being talked to in a not genuine way. It’s sad but true.

I messaged her and asked what song she was performing for the talent show. She sent three audio messages of her singing that she had recorded just then. She didn’t have to do that. She could’ve just said the name of the song. If she was just trying to be nice to me and didn’t care about me, she would’ve just said the name of the song and nothing else. She went through the extra effort to share those recordings with me.

I messaged her and asked if she could give me a ride home one afternoon because my mom was in a work meeting until 4:30. I explained that I live two minutes away from school but the problem is that there’s a snowbank and no sidewalk and I can’t cross the busy road because there’s no crosswalk. She replied and said “My dad drove me to school today because of the snow :,)” “I would but I don’t have my car 😩” “Be safe getting home tho!” She could’ve just said “I can’t today, sorry.” But not only did she explain why she couldn’t and say she would if she could, she also added, “Be safe getting home tho!” That is genuine care.

I asked her if she wanted to come to Ms. Pepin’s raised time to play DIY apples to apples with me and my friends. I told her she could bring Rowan and Batt. She said that Rowan and Batt were spending their raider time in the commons and that she might come if she’s not in the commons with them and that she hoped she remembered and said she might not remember. She actually showed up and played with me and my friends. She could’ve not shown up. She could’ve politely said no. But she actually came. I can assume she assumed it was going to be all freshmen, and we all know she has better things to do than hang out with freshmen if she wanted to. But she cared enough and wanted to come and play with me.

My mom didn’t think Seneca actually cared about me. She thought Seneca was just trying to be nice to me because she feels bad for me and is treating me like a charity cause. But if that were true, Seneca wouldn’t be putting in the amount of care and effort she is into our interactions. Our friendship would’ve for sure distanced after six weeks of not being in a class together. She would act distant and keep our interactions brief. When I told all this to my mom (“all this” meaning all the incidents I wrote about above that show she cares), she said, “Seems like it. I don’t know why. But great.” It didn’t feel wonderful, exactly, but I just reminded myself of what Seneca told me: “You’re nice and you’re cool and you’re great.” She likes me for who I am.

I messaged her saying, "Hi, I was wondering if you would like to hang out at the mall on a weekend sometime :)." She replied, "I'm super busy but give me a time and I'm sure I could figure something out." We worked out a time (3 pm on the 12th) to meet at a nearby mall and hang out. I'm super duper excited!! I bought new clothes to wear for our get-together and I'm going to do my hair and nails and everything!! I don't know how I got so lucky. Like, come on. She's two years older and stunningly gorgeous and crazy popular. It just makes me so happy that she chose to be friends with me because I'm a good person and because I'm a good person it doesn't matter to her that I'm younger or not as popular.

We message almost every day. Typically I wouldn't message her every day, but she's sometimes the one who messages me first, and she puts effort into her replies. If she gave short replies or was never the one to reach out, it would be different. She's just so kind and incredible. She's making a miniature library as an art project and she's hoping to enter it in the school-age section of the state fair. She calls me cute and adorable a lot and it makes me so happy.

She was also selling some of her old clothes and she gave me a pair of her old jeans for free.

We hung out in the commons during raider time on Friday. When the bell rang, she hugged me and it felt amazing as usual.

Thanks for reading! Happy February, have a good week, all!

Hey, friends! I want to give a lengthy thank you to all of you.

@RosaHere @JasmineFlower222 @Storyfox23 @yourbuddy30 @Strawberryxoxoxo @Trustfulotter @LittleMoth99 You are some very kind people and I'm grateful I met you. The world is lucky to have you, you're already making it a better place just by existing. I'm proud of you for being your amazing, authentic selves.

I appreciate it and I appreciate you, more than you know. I'm so very lucky to have you in my life, you all are my safety net when I fall down, and some of the people I go to first to share my exciting news. You mean more to me than just your support, too. I love talking with all of you and bouncing ideas off of each other. You are wonderful.

@Khaii @TabbyCat97 @Jefferythebunny319 You are truly some of the most extraordinary people I've ever met. Your personalities are just a wonder. It's hard for me to fathom how deep your love, care, support, and kindness go because it's simply never-ending. How you happened to fall from heaven and land in my life is a miracle that I'm everlastingly grateful for. You are doing beyond amazing, and I'm extremely proud of you. I love you for who you are, so please don't change a thing. Remember to take care of yourselves. You are so important; the word needs you and so do I.

@KateDoskocilova Oh Kate, where do I even start? Evie and I love you so much. I feel like we really understand each other and are on the same wavelength. You're funny, kind, smart, and just lovely. Talking with you always brightens my day. I hope you know how much we appreciate having you in our lives.

@Jefferythebunny319 @goldenLion1121 @mariainfj @This is an important reminder that you and your experiences are completely undeniably valid. Life hasn't been easy for you, to say the least. You've had lots of struggles your whole life, and although I can't even begin to imagine what you've been through, you are doing amazing and I am so proud of you. I know you are trying so hard and I am always here for you. You are never alone, you have me, always. And I know it's different than having the IRL support you deserve, but I will do everything in my power to show you how loved you are.

@DragonPixal You are hands-down the funniest person I've ever met and trust me, I've met a lot of people. But that's not the only reason I'm grateful we're friends. I love how we value each other and I always enjoy talking with you in TCR.

@CommunityModLucy Hello, Lucy! This is just me letting you know how much I appreciate you. It's not like you're my favorite mod for no reason, hehe. You're the perfect mix of kind, funny, smart, assertive, caring, and supportive, and you're always fun to be around. Respect is so important as a mod, and I truly feel as though there's no way you could possibly be more respectful. You are so considerate and compassionate, it's amazing. You're also an incredible mod, always making sure our community is safe. We all appreciate you.
