My first project was poorly written so I've redone it! To everyone in GWDFI, This is a typed out version of what I hand wrote at 11pm, 2 ½ hours before the closure. I cannot possibly write down every positive interaction and event- I can't even remember them all! But the 2 years+ I've been here have been amazing. From the beginning to the end, through good and bad, you all mostly provided a safe and fun environment that was a good place with good intentions at core. I won't forget about the studio or the people in a hurry. I cannot say thank you enough, even if you weren't aware you helped me through darker times, even if they weren't dark you were there for me. Thank you! I want to say thank you- to all the managers, past, and present for helping to keep the studio alive and running for so long. All of you were lovely and mature as well as doing your best for the studio, it's just unfortunate how it changed for the worse. I hope all of you are able to have the rest you all need and deserve. I wish you the very best. Now curators (and still managers), I wish this wasn't the ending as it was, as there are so many untold stories and people I would have loved to meet, but the decision was not ours, while I understand it, I'm sad, as I'm sure many of you are as well. I've had so many great chats, jokes and games with all of you, all which I have enjoyed and will cherish. I want to also wish you all the very best, as each of you are worth so much and are so incredible and worth so much. I love you all (//plat). I hope irl treats you all well! As part of the closure of the studio, I have decided I will mostly leave scratch. This means I will not be active in other chat studios such as DBD, gaehive and evacuation, while they are all great and run by great people. This is not a decision I made lightly. I'd always been planning on leaving "Leave in September 2023", I never did, "Leave in September 2024", I never did, "Leave in February 2025", I never did. While I'm thankful I didn't, I know now's the time. I will be leaving to focus on my irl and education and future so I can achieve what I would like to! I will still be logging in to keep in contact with a person or two to stay in contact with them, maybe even more. I will be around for camp GWDFI, but after that my activity will decrease. I thank everyone again who I met whether it was yesterday or two years ago. While this all feels surreal, I know it's reality and understand why the management team did as they did. Especially with some incidents which have taken place over the last year or so. We must be kind and accepting of the decisions and actions that have been decided on. Saying I'm not sad would be lying but I'm still grateful I got to experience it. While there's some vain part of me that wishes I found it earlier so I could have experienced more, it wouldn't have made the loss any less painful. Only a small number of the world experienced this studio only 0.00034619739% if each follower was a different person and using the current population. The number is so small it's almost irrelevant- but it's not. This studio is unique and such a special experience we should try to make light of. I love you all so much, and I will most definitely miss you all. Goodbye, goodbye parting is such sweet sorrow"- Romeo and Juliet. The quote feels fitting; it describes the mood (and the play includes my nickname hehe). And remember to listen to MARINA! But seriously take care of yourselves. I'm here if anyone needs me. -Juliet I look forward to seeing those of you who are taking part in camp gwdfi there. Otherwise till we meet again! Also if you wish to stay in touch off-site let me know! I have most social medias :P I'm still breathing!
