Narg. I just remembered how annoying I used to be. I got so many PMs from Nate telling me to basically shut up or go away (well, no. They were a loooooot nicer than that.) xD
I am nothing
but a mouthful of 'sorry's, half-hearted
apologies that roll of my tongue, smoothquick, like 'r's
or maybe like pocket candy
that's just a bit too sweet.

I don't remember anything from my Noob days.
I don't think I made a welcome post.
Rosey welcomed me on the guestbooks and I loved her for using pink. :D

I was not really active, I guess in the beginning. I don't think did anything spectacular except improving reviewing skills and writing skills. Booyah!
And then, over a year later, I became a greenie meanie. And I still don't think I've done anything crazy here. :P

Oh gosh.

-I was twelve.
-I was exclamation-point-happy.
-I used to sign all my posts ~Azila~
-I had huge-block-of-text syndrome.
-I thought I was the best writer ever.
-I thought I was the best reviewer ever, and that my reviews were really long and really harsh--but they weren't even all that long, and I mostly just nit-picked things to death. I was one of those "you should have a comma here, I think!" reviewers. And I'd always apologize for being harsh, even though the meanest thing I'd said was "you use too many ellipses" or something like that.

I was a good girl, asking the owner to join and if I could make my character a fox...the fox, Macha, needed a human companion, which I requested in my profile. A few people asked if it could be their character, but I chose the first person who asked. Firearris. She never posted. I quit the storybook because I wasn't going to move her character around for her. xD


Haha, that was a fail on my end. I was overly distracted and lazy. >.> When I first joined, I made blog posts about how much I wanted to be a mod. Plus I would have fights in chat every day. >.>

What about you, Day? You haven't named anything yet. :wink:

[Firearris] 10:46 pm: aquires the weasel and renames it "Cat"

Take that, Lumi.

It amuses me, Mustard, that YOU think YOU are old.

What am I: ancient?

I got in an intense argument about homosexuality in my first month or two, I also wrote storybook posts about as long as this post. None of my reviews were very good either and " i takled like tthis.." Now I'm a proper writer using proper grammar with proper wordings. Most of the time. Maybe not. . .

Also, I joined in october and had no idea why everyone was so crazy about Nano, and I thought they were talking about the Ipod. :)

I'm still pretty new around here because well... I kind of don't post a lot to avoid noob moments XD
I really hope this doesn't count as one.
I pretty much just hang around in the background as much as possible to see how everything on the site works, what to do, what is considered inappropriate etc.

However, I commented on my own stories a lot so that I could gain points. Whoops...

I've honestly not done a lot on this site which is visible, I'm sad to say despite the fact that I log on every day to see what's new.

Wow, I went and dug up some stuff from when I was young. It feels like such a long time ago.

First person to write on my wall: Merry_Haven

First person to reply to my welcome thread: Demeter

First story I submitted: Already Won Me

First story I reviewed: Angels, Devils, and Ice Cream by mizindependen14


Hazzah! Wow, that was all such a long time ago...I'm getting old...

And yesh, my YWS Seestah! We will of course do something spectacular for our birthday! I know it's still quite a few months off but I don't even care!
Never forget who you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.



Well, if I can't get this chapter to work....at least I will have exercised my fingers.
