[.:Rayneh:.]

I PMed someone because they let their bid on my Red Rose be auto cancelled twice. They said they'd re-bid, and foed me. Wow... >.> Rude people are the best.

Journal entry 18: It has now been a week with the floppy eared september. Bad trade after bad trade. Is there no hope?

When you're just to clingy to dreamies you've achieved...

o n o

I've been noticing Sunjewels UFT, UFA even for trade-downs.
They're appearing more often, yet I just feel so.. discouraged...

It's been a personal goal of mine to get a Sunjewel, but for a slightly different reason.

I tracked down my very first Sunjewel back in 2009, which I traded for underpay-
I recall it was either there wasn't a Rares List yet, or I totally never came to the forums before.
Well.. I'm actually surprised and relieved that they still have it with them, and I hope to get it back.
Either to afford it and trade for it, or to get any other Sunjewel, but just to swap it with the original one I trade them. ^ ^"

However.. now comes quite a big problem.

Anyone had the nagging feeling.. that though you know you might be able to offer enough for one;
but your OCD just screams at you that, you fear you can re-achieve the dreamies you have to give up for a Sunjewel?

Cause that's how I feel, for the past few months.
It's like.. I believe I can offer for one.. but I just.. can't.
Everything valuable or even close enough to valuable are achieved dreams.. I can't let them go.
I worry.. if I really were to give them up for a Sunjewel.. what do I do afterwards? I'll be left with nothing much.
And it's not like I can trade down a Sunjewel if I got one.. it'll be another achieved big dream- how will I reachieve the ones I gave up for it?

It might be silly to others, but it's a conflicting problem for me...
Hence, why I've spent the past few months ignoring all dreamies etc. ^ ^"

Ah... I can hope that the Advent Calender will bless me with either a dreamie or good fodder. > <

Aaaw I know how you feel though D:
I've done very stupid trades when I first started out in CS, and I think I accidentally traded an advent away for massive underpay
Though it's been my dream now to get a Joker for months and I have no luck due to me hanging onto my only 2008s
Which I only have around fourteen and including a Nonjewel which I can trade down for lower pets like the Joker
Problem is a lot of these 2008s were gifts to me, and I actually think all of them were
I am very attached to them and even if I get overpay for one of them, I often end up canceling >.<
It's not that I want to, but I just can't do it D:

I just recently got a trade for my Light Leopard, and they are overpaying, so I can move up the list!
Though I got this pet from someone very special and it was part of a limited time offer only
But I want to get closer to my Joker goal... Gaahhh...

I understand how you feel</3

Sometimes, they're either gifts or achieved dreamies you can't part with;
usually for me- it's because of the fear that I won't be able to reachieve them again for a long time.

; - ;

And because of this whole dilema, I've pretty much given up on any dreamies at all. XD
I'm just going to collect monthly pets.. lurk on the forums.. and wait for the Advent every year. c':
Since there really isn't any use for my to actively search for dreamies anymore when I have nothing. XD

I send a fair trade for a firework pps and then, I get back them saying that people offer them 10 rares for it, so I should offer more. Well looks like I'm never going to make it on the advents list. >.<

When I meant massive overpay I was thinking along the lines of a target or lower, not that ene
