Hey sugars!! Been long, hasn't it? I mean- I didn't post since probably 2022!! And I bet you all are wondering why.. Story <3 So- I had forgotten about Scratch as I went into 6th Grade or to many- Form 1 in the new term. I didn't really forget about it. It just became a foggy memory in my mind. I realized that a bunch of Scratch creators whom I like left Scratch. It really hits hard after all- they inspired me to start doing aesthetic content. Yes, I wanted to still be a programmer but I never thought of Scratch till then. Many family problems and deaths happened that I ended up forgetting about the lovely community that brought me to the way I am now.. My Mental Health <3 Personally, I feel drained and rather stressed out with my life and I only turned to Scratch at last minute because I personally feel like I am going insane thinking about how messed up 2023 was for me. My mental health worsens at the thought knowing that my family members are being pulled to the Afterlife like drawing toothpicks. But that is just what life is like, it seems. On another hand, I have been maintaining it with my new friends a bit. My Holidays <3 Christmas was a disaster in my opinion. I went nowhere and it just felt like I was stuck in an empty room like an utmost weirdo. Halloween wasn't any better, my country doesn't celebrate it. And overall- the holidays felt traumatizing. Q&A -Are you leaving Scratch? </3 (Unfortunately yes, I love the community but I just feel drained worrying about having to post anything more on this. I think I will create a new account and create more stuff there.) -Will you ever come back? </3 (I think so. It depends on whether I have energy to come back of course.) -How has Scratch been to you overall? (Great community with a bunch of potential. But it just isn't the same anymore..) And...HAPPY (early) NEW YEAR!!???? I hope Scratch will become better over the years and continue to shine! Unfortunately, there will have no more projects from me as I continue to aim to pursue a new path in my life <3. Very sorry I couldn't stay longer.. and good luck in life y'alls
