How Cute!
Note:
Okay, there's a lot I have to say right now, but I'll make this quick since I'm supposed to be asleep. Online, I would really like to thank the entire cottonwood community for an amazing year. I've had a blast making the archive for you guys, even though that may be what I'm limited to as far as staff membership goes (I've been trying really hard to improve for GA opportunities, but unfortunately I've discovered that Java no longer works on either my or my family's computer, and am unable to draw on the oekaki). The archive is nowhere near done, but that's not really a bad thing: the massive amount of work that I've put in since august to make it just shows how eager and supportive of a community we have here, and I think it's an amazing thing. So, in short, thank you to all of the staff and adoptees at Cottonwood for being the way you are, and keep being that way.
Also, I would like to thank the theatre community for simply existing. My entrance into the community of acting and theatre has changed my life so much; it gave me an idea for what I wanted to do in the future where I had none, and a place where I could express myself without worrying about who was watching. To all of you who are involved, you change other people's lives with your performances, so keep doing it! If not, then keep supporting those who are involved, because a lot of times they need all of the love and encouragement they can get.
Merry Christmas, everyone!

Note:

My mom is the most amazing mom i could ask for, honestly she does everything she can and i feel so fortunate to have her :3 to be honest, if she wasnt around, there would be nothing left at all between my step dad and myself and i feel kinda bad that we just never get along. im sure i would feel almost completely alone in the world without my mom, i cant imagine life without her, and i could say all i want that if its her time then so be it, but everyone knows that if she was gone that id have a mental break down and id probably lose my sanity ^^

during this deep moment i think my cat just farted 0-0

btw im leaving a space for either base and pattern because idk where to put varnis roan, that would be a base right?
