joined 5 years ago... damn. im so sad that wattpad has gone so down hill with ads and premium stuff. i remember the good ol days when you could just read a write, i made some very close friends here. im so happy that i am still in contact with one of them, and i even hope to meet them one day. this place has put me through hell and back with books, and i still get brought back to comments from years ago only to laugh at how stupid i sounded. im sure ill look back at myself now and laugh, but im happy with myself until then.
maybe talking to strangers on fhe internet was a good idea after all.
i dont know if im going to keep this account. i may start a new one, leave behind the old memories and move onto ao3. it will be hard, but im not sure if im ready to follow through quite yet.
five years ago. man it seems like it was so recent i was in 5th grade, reading stupid fanfiction with friends and even writing some of our own. i remember making up characters, something i do now in my free time as a stress reliever. this place has heavily made me who i am today, even basing myself off if characters i have read who have almost become a part of me. the stories here were just as important as real books.
im so happy to see writers here have their paper turned over into movies. the kissing booth is one if my favorite sappy stories, i could watch it all day. for me, its a classic. its like harry potter but not nearly as big .
but yea, thats my little rant. nearly cried writing it, and i know i definitely would cru deleting this account. but sometimes you are meant to grow from the things you love the most, the things that have impacted you so heavily. ❤️
