First of all, I want to thank everyone for sticking by me for so long. I’m really grateful to have the support that I do, and it’s all thanks to you. I started Scratch almost 5 years ago. It’s really what brought me to my love of coding. I found something magical in the process of plopping blocks down on one side and watching something happen on the other. I spent countless afternoons playing around, discovering everything I could. To me, Scratch was my happy place. To be honest, the lack of response on my projects discouraged me from creating more. I was always out of ideas, out of things to create. The difficulties of coding, especially my slow speed, began to wear down on me. Then came my first curation. I felt super lucky and happy. A big thank you to @Sunshine_the_Rainbow for suggesting it. Your enthusiasm and belief in me really pulled me through. I was really happy to realize that my projects really perhaps did have potential after all. I found other things on Scratch. Another big thank you to all of SWC (Scratch Writing Camp). Throughout the 4 or so camps I’ve been there, I found a large, supportive, and fun community. A special shoutout to @-JustLikeSugar- for being the coolest friend and cabin leader ever. Scratch slowly began to become more like a site where I could pursue my interests without judgement. I grew older. Scratch, sadly, no longer held the same magic for me. I found other coding languages. Python. Java. School took up more and more time. I found other art programs. I started drifting away. I’ve outgrown Scratch. It’ll always hold a special place in my heart, but it’s something in my past now. I’ve moved on. I might lurk around on the site every now and then, but for the most part, I’ve left. I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who liked and loved my Boba Shop project. When I created it, I seriously didn’t think it would get as much attention as it did. Giant thanks to @smartcutecandy for curating it!!! It’s my most popular project, and I just want to thank everyone for being so supportive on it. So. Yeah. I’m basically gone. Thank you so much for all being here. I will miss you all. If you would still like to see my art, I do have an Instagram: .moonshine. Goodbye, and thank you for all the memories <3 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆
