Quick Notes: Music is a sped-up version of “Goodbye to a World” by Porter Robinson! All text (for those who use tone indicators) should be taken with a genuine, somewhat serious, slightly positive tone. - - + Hello! It has been… a WHILE since I’ve made any projects. This update post has been through a lot of back and fourth over the past sixths months and is well overdue—in the end, I just wrote what I thought, no edits or (too) long winded apologies about it. I do have to say sorry in advance, though, if it’s not the best update, explanation, or piece of writing in general. I didn’t do much editing on it. I kinda crashed and burned about a year(?) ago. I’ve had problems with IRL friends, schoolwork, and art burnouts. I wasn’t honest about my situation and kept taking on projects here I just couldn’t finish in time, and didn’t communicate with people about it. It was a lot easier to just drop it and run, but that was poor behavior on my part. Coming back now, I don’t have much motivation for the things on this account. I love all the memories I’ve made on here, but my project box is cluttered with unshared scraps, and I’m drowning in studio notifications every day I check my inbox. It just feels… stressful. So! That’s why I’ll be making some changes, as well as finally clarifying the status of this account and the plans I have going forward! I don’t plan to continue posting on this account—not often, anyway. It’s very nostalgic to me, so I’ll be leaving it just about the way it is. Rest assured I have no intention of unsharing any more projects, or just nuking the @RosieBlossem15 account off the internet entirely. I realize I still have some unfinished things I need to finish before I go. I’m sure I have a lot more I owe to people that I need to do that I just d o n ‘ t remember. If you remember I owe you something from an adopt you still have on hold for me or some other art payment or the like, PLEASE let me know!! I’ll do my best to figure something out with you. Thank you all so, so much for all your support here on this account. You all made me feel so wonderful and valued, and I’m sorry I never said enough “thank you”s or did more for all you wonderful followers of mine. I plan on moving to a new account, as I still love using Scratch, even if not as often. This new account will also have an updated username to better reflect the usernames I use on other websites. I plan to use this account more for myself and what I enjoy. I’ll try to worry less about making what’s popular, or what others will like. I think it’ll be better for my mental and real-life social health, and it’ll keep me from taking on what I can’t handle. That said, if we’ve talked before and you’d want to reconnect and chat again, please feel free to ask for my new account! I’d be happy to give it to you so we can still talk every now and again. I truly want to get better at keeping up conversations here and staying in touch with what y’all are doing! It’s on my bucket list of “things to get better at doing to be a better person”, genuinely and honestly. Speaking of chatting before, I just want to say thank you to all the friends I made on the internet—you all know who you are. Thank you for all the good times—all the memories, all the laughs, all the gifts, and all the smiles you brought to my face. You all chased away my loneliness and sadness. I’m not great at writing sappy or thoughtful notes—but I want you all to know it means a lot more to me than I can ever begin to describe. I’m truly regretful I acted like quite the rotten friend, disappearing without a word or note. I’m sorry I spoiled our friendships with such a lack of commitment or communication, even when you tried again and again to reach out and include me. If you’re still on Scratch and are willing to reconnect, I’d genuinely love to chat again and catch up. How have you all been? Are you doing well? What have I missed? Shoot me a message and I’ll reply back with my new account name, or I’ll follow you with my new account—whichever works better in the moment! (I should take a moment to make a quick note that, due to the IRL past-friend troubles, my parents have restricted my access to the D app (if you know what I mean). I don’t know when I’ll be able to use it again, honestly, so please note I can’t reply to any messages there!) Either way—whatever happens, whatever you guys choose to do—thank you all for all you’ve given me, and best wishes on having a wonderful rest of your life! Good luck in all your endeavors—online and off! I think that’s about it. I’ll continue this with any other notes below if I remember anything I’ve forgot, or if I need to clarify something. Again, thank you to everyone who made my experience here on this Scratch account special! It’ll always have a special place in my heart. Have a wonderful rest of your day, and best wishes to both of us running into each other again sometime on the wide wide inter-web! Warmly, Rosie
TL;DR: - - + I am going on an indefinite hiatus on this account. I may return for posting projects occasionally, but I have no firm schedule or plans for it. Thank you all so, so much for all the support you’ve shown me over the years—I can’t say how much I appreciate it, and I’m sorry I never did more for you all! If I still owe anyone anything and they haven’t resold the adopt/found someone else, PLEASE let me know ASAP! I’ll figure something out with you. I’ll be moving to a new account to preserve what’s on here and have a fresh slate. I’ll be prioritizing what I want to post there when I want to post, so it probably won’t be as interesting or follower-geared content filled as this account. That said, if you’d like to continue following me or chat with me occasionally again, please let me know and I’ll give you my username! I’d love to reach back out to people! To my good internet friendos, I just want to say thanks. There’s more in the long version, but I’m really glad we met, and I’m sorry I ended up being a bad friend who just yeeted herself into nonexistence with no communication. My access was restricted on the big D (if you know what I’m referring to, not sure if I can write the app name out), but if you ever want to catch me up on your life and chat again now and then on Scratch, please let me know. It’d be really nice. Truly, thank you guys for all the awesome memories <333 Thank you all again, and have a wonderful rest of your day! Edit: Looking back, maybe it's just easier to leave it here. If you're interested, my new account is @RosieDrawsDoodles! (Maybe this is just way too late to even begin to say—but if you see this, happy very very very belated birthday, Pitch!)
