for starters: i have no idea what on earth i'm doing. it's 1 a.m., and i just thought of something that reminded me of this little community of people i was so close with, and i got beyond nostalgic. i don't know if anyone will see this post but i just want to write it, even if i'm just talking to the void :p

so, yes, it has truly been a minute for all of us. i actually think about the people i met on wikia, specifically the austin & ally wiki, all the time. i'm still in contact with a few of them :) fun little instagram groupchat, whatever. but wikia genuinely shaped who i am as a person, considering i totally broke the Wikia rules and made my first account under the incredibly cringy name Mrs.NiallHoran13 when I was 10! seriously, why was i so active on chat sites as a ten year old? but that was 6 years ago, and i still have a lot of growing to do as a person still, but this little community has pointed me in the right direction and i'm incredibly thankful for everyone, especially the ones that dealt with my annoying a** in 2013.

i spent about an hour just looking through this wiki and i'm going to be honest- i miss this. i was totally in a better place then and i wasn't stressed out all the time. it's important to move on, though, but i still really envy who i was last time i made an actual contribution here haha. i still carry the characters i created in my heart and sometimes i'll think about all these show and movie ideas i had. long story short, creating on here helped me become more of a writer, and i really think it's something i want to do for a living.

this post is getting incredibly long and not making any sense, so i'll just end it with: if you're seeing this, tell me how you are. what's up in your life? and know that i'm really thankful for all of you xx :)
