I've done it. I've finally done it. [UPDATED V.2]

wow, okay. I didn't really expect to get to this point when I first started collecting (AKA, obsessively hoarding) caterpillars. I figured I'd just get a few here and a few there and have a cute little hoard folder with about 30 or 50 caterpillars in it.

that wasn't the case.

after my hiatus, I started hoarding caterpillars even more than I did before I took a break. I was at.. I'm not sure, about 20 or 30 caterpillars when I left back in November. once I returned last month, I decided I was going to take this seriously and start hoarding them in a more organized and (still il)logical manner. the release of two new caterpillars over the course of my hiatus also aided in my hoarding, as you can see by my large numbers of the more recent caterpillars.

today, I hit 100 (technically, 101) caterpillars. I, like I said before, genuinely didn't think I would ever reach a milestone like this. I don't know why I'm genuinely getting emotional over caterpillars, but I am, and I'm really happy with my hoard.

I don't really have a good way to close this off, but I guess just.. thank you, to everyone who has helped me reach this point, directly or indirectly. this is genuinely giving me an unhealthy sense of accomplishment, and who knows what the future will hold? I might even hit 200 soon; you never know. (:

hey, remember when I said I might even hit 200 caterpillars? well.. I've done it. I've actually done it again. I don't have a lot to say this time, but once again, thank you to everyone who has directly and indirectly helped me reach this point!! I never could have done it without you!

(by the way, I'm still planning on adding all further caterpillars that I acquire to this scene from now on, so the count of 200 is eventually going to become highly inaccurate as well.)

wow. I've been neglecting this for awhile, apparently. I have now hit 300 caterpillars, and am still going strong. I have even less to say this time, but thanks yet again to everyone who has helped me reach this number!!
