(I typed this past midnight, sorry for any weird grammar errors) I know I haven't been on Scratch much after my "I'm Back" project. I have created projects, I just haven't found the time to share them. I was on my new account. Today I signed out of my new account and saw something shocking: this account was no longer on top of my suggestions. This means that I've been spending more time on my new account. I guess it's time to face the truth. But here's some background on how I first got into the Scratch community. During the COVID pandemic, I needed something to set my mind to. I was in second grade at the time. I quickly fell in love with Scratch. When the time came to finally create this account I based the name off of my Prodigy account. I've had two Prodigy accounts, both named Adeline. Fast forward to today, I'm now in middle school. The world has changed. Prodigy has changed. The Scratch community I joined back in 2020 is... gone. Many of the Scratchers I knew then aren't here anymore. Currently, I don't know what's next for this account. I don't know if I can commit to staying on this account. If I decided to switch it would be a difficult decision to make. I have two accounts I could potentially move to. One of them has my real first name. At first thought it could help you know the "me" outside of Scratch better. But I'm concerned about that account merging into this one. That account started as a school account for my tech classes. The Scratchers I have met through this account would have to know the Scratchers I have known for so long, and vice versa. Switching to that one would also mean giving up the "Adeline" side of me, a side that you have known for so long and a side that has been such a huge part of my life. I don't know how I can part with it. Another option is the one I have mentioned in my "I'm Back" project. I used a different name for that one than Adeline. I created the account to learn more about the aesthetic community on Scratch, but it has quickly become a "dream" account, or who I want to become on Scratch. I still don't want to lose all connections with you. I want to continue in some way, I just don't know how. If you've read this far, I want to thank you for putting in the time to read this (including my constant rambling), and I hope to see you in my next project.
