Best Memories
-I got accepted to my first choice college ♥ I start in the fall of 2015. I'm so very excited to learn game design.
-Picking out a few different things to put in a holiday package to give to Graham c: I was so excited when he told me that he liked my gifts. I remember I wouldn't stop bugging him on Tumblr... "Hey, did the package arrive yet?"
-Singing for the first time in front of a large crowd (400 people is large to me). I was so happy when multiple people told me how well I sang.
-The ending to the Legend of Korra. While I was sad the series had come to a close, the ending was absolutely perfect.
-Going to my first anime convention! It also happened to be the largest in the state c: Tons of people asked for pictures of my friend and I, it was awesome! (I cosplayed as Haruka Nanase and she cosplayed as Korra)
-My friend gets to interview One Direction in person next year. She was so excited when she told me, and I'm so happy for her. She's only 15 and she's already doing so much. Next year she'll also be designing merch for a band.
-Preordered the Collector's Edition of MH4U. That was such a great day for multiple reasons.

Worst Memories
-Missed out on meeting Todd Haberkorn and Steve Blum in the same day. That kinda sucked xD
-Walked right past Noah Watts (VA of Connor Kenway). We were two feet from him and didn't realize it because he was cosplaying as Connor and had his hood up.
-Free! Eternal Summer ended... and I cried so much. I even cried in school the next day.
-A friend who I had been romantically interested in basically told me we'll probably never go out. It wasn't the fact that he said it, it was the way that he said it... I was so upset. In school the next day one of my friends had to take me out in the hallway in first block to help me calm down. I also had showed up late to that class because I was crying to a teacher who I really trust. That was such a horrid day... but when a bunch of people found out that I was crying over a boy they all told me that they were there for me and would beat him up if I wanted them to. That was awesome.
-My brother and my best friend both got an Attribeauty in DQIX in the same day and they don't even use fans. I have an omnivocational fanmaster, so all he uses are fans, and I still haven't found one. This occurred months ago.

Overall my year was pretty great, and I'm very fortunate to have so many good memories. They far outnumber the bad ones. Here's to a great 2015!

My two best memories are first, getting so close with my friend, that she became my best, most weirdest friend ever! <3 And my second memory was getting my ears priced this year which I have been wanting since the beginning of time!

I got my first List pet, went into -insert grade here- grade, got a dog and met some of my best friends. I hope that in 2015, my dog will finally be housebroken and I can continue growing in my studies and as a person. HAPPY 2015 CS!

A lot of bad things happened to me this year.. I don't really have any good memories, except that I made a lot of progress in my trading this year. At the end of 2013 I had only a few low list pets and now I have about 5 main lists and several september's, I am really close to getting an UR tiger!

Depression


Best:
Moving to an entirely new place
Starting my own dog grooming business
Finding friends are the best family I could have ever asked for.
Finding my way out of depression to a new life.

Some of my best memories is getting my braces off this year, it felt sooo good. I was also really happy to become a GH with Parallax this year and become closer with the CS community, helping many users. All the times I helped a user or cheered them up I was always really happy to have made their day a little bit better or easier. ;;v;; I was also really excited to become an artist for Plumerian adopts and meet many new people there, as well as do what I love (Which is drawing, but designing is just as fun!) I was able to make many wonderful new friends there. I'm also heart warmed by all the birthday wishes I received, I didn't expect so many and it's so nice to know people out there do care about that hhh. ;; <333

I'm hoping to continue to help make CS a more friendly place and to continue making a positive impact on other users!

Happy New Year, everyone! I hope you all have blessed, safe, and happy futures. C':

My best memories this year were getting over fifty votes on one of my Oekaki drawings, and another picture moved to Intermediate. I'm improving more and more! Another was conquering my stage fright and performing at a holiday concert recently. I got the loudest applause for delivering a fast-paced speech and I felt so special. I completed my bat collection thanks to a number of kind users. I've so far gotten perfect grades and I hope I continue to study hard. I've seen some excellent movies this year, discovered my most favourite band in the world, and joined the Foxerfly community. I've enjoyed some marvellous rants and heavenly food. I feel like I've made more friends this year, and gotten closer to one particular person with whom I hope that bond will grow. Most importantly I came up with the idea for a series of books I want nothing more than to be published. Nothing terrible or major happened this year, but the little things are what I feel are the most memorable. In 2015 I hope to make new friends both on- and off-site, grow in my art skills, and finish my book. Once again, happy New Year to all of you! ^W^

2014 was a sad year for me...
I will retell it from the start.
It was in the morning of July 7(Mon). So me and my sister were woken up by my mom. She said our Grandma was in a car wreck. I didn't think things would turn out as bad as it did. My Grandma was strong. She had many surgeries(back, foot, ect.), has lost many dear ones, lost her aunt who raised her from alshimers, was in a car wreck before going into a coma and losing her best friend, even losing her hushband. I didn't think that we would lose her. My Grandma was my best friend.
But anyways, I asked my mom what happened and if she was ok. No one knew yet. Later that day she went to the hospital and came back saying that if she did survive she wouldn't be our Grandma again. She said she had a heart attack and crashed. The cause of the heart attack is still unknown. When the ambulance came her brain had lost way too much oxegyn, 30 minutes without oxegyn. It was very sad. I just couldn't beleive that it was real.
That night when my dad got home he talked to me and my sister. He said he knew that she would never come home again. We went to see my grandma that night. When my parents went in the room I thought "who is this person? Why did they stop here?" Then I realized..It was my grandma. She was in a coma.
Thursday the whole family came to the hospital to say our good byes. They were taking her off life support. She had no brain activity and it wasn't improving. I told her that I loved her and would never forget her. And that she didn't deserve to go this way.
That following Monday we got a call from my aunt saying that my grandma passed away in the hospice. The funeral was Saturday. Me and my two cousins played I Am A Child Of God at the funneral. Those days were the saddest days of my life...

But I had some good times, too. I toke up mandolin in November. I got it for my birthday which was December 5.
