The slideshow shows how much I've grown and how all of you have been there, from awkward disproportionate cats that look like fire hydrants to where I am now. 500+ followers. 500+ friends. Let me first say: Thank you so much. When I first joined scratch, it was because @warriorcat16 told me to (THANK YOU). I was originally @rainstorm16, some of you may remember that! I never, ever thought I would get this far. At all. Like, not even dreams. At first, I didn't want to be an animator. I wanted to code, code, code. I made a lot of Warrior Cats (I was obsessed) games, and got sick of using pre-made lineart. So, I started making my own. Basically, I found the art piece funner than the coding, and then started to animate. Scratch has been my home for two years. I have so, so many friends, that I trust and know I can turn to when I'm down. I've gone through so much, and Scratch and its inhabitants has always been there. Whenever I'm down, I know that someone here will support me, and I know that everyone here cares. Thank you. So, so, so much. Here are some more personal notes for my good friends: @IcoQuest: Thank you. The whole reason we became friends was that I was down and told you something I hadn't told anyone. I didn't know you. We started talking and soon realized we had a lot in common, and... I connected with you. I know that you'll always be there for me, as I will always be there for you. I love you. (nOT LIKE THAT) @Frozenstar200: Winter, Winter, Winter. You always are hilarious, even when you're sad. You are amazing, funny, caring (even though you don't try), and incredibly awesome. I know I can tell you anything. If anything happens, you're always there. ily @Wavestar101: We've been friends for quite a while, and through all of it, you've been there if I've been sad (or any emotion, for that matter). I know I can count on you and trust you. You've always been there, always. Thank you @Brairthornthecat: We became friends somewhat recently, but I know that we're meant to be friends. Anytime one of us has been down, the other has been there. You're an amazing person, and you've made me happy when no one else has been able to. : I wasn't nice to you last year. I was mean. Really mean. And I'm sorry. I'm glad that this year you forgave me. That's what I love about you, that you have a fair judgement and you know what's right. You've always been there, even though not physically. I know that you will listen and that I will too if one of is has a problem. Thank you. : Where do I start? First off, you're a huge inspiration to me. And a great friend. Even though I wasn't.... Nice to you at one point, you forgave me and I can't say how much that means to me. You always make me laugh, and you always know what to say, to do, and I would just like to thank you. To all of my other friends/followers: Thank you. Even if I didn't write you a heartfelt note (I would if I could), I still love you all and appreciate everything you do/have done. You're all so caring and supportive. Thank you. Everyone.
