From time to time, I will indulge in the bittersweet experience of coming back on here and reading back on the most accurate, and cringe-worthy, documentation of my childhood. Except this time, I came across Kara's post on her life update. I had been anticipating some sort of update on her for a while, as she played a very pivotal role in my early teenage years- so much so that my irl friends ask me about her to this day. It was absolutely surreal and endearing to know that she is on the path to forming a family. This is the same person who I think of whenever I listen to Coldplay, or whenever I watch Good Mythical Morning. Inspired by her, I also want to give you guys a little update on my life. Right now, I am finalizing my college applications, with the hopes to commence my architecture career this upcoming fall. I have even applied to the same university as Olivia, aka Tornado. In fact, we have plans to finally see each other after eight years, if things have normalized by then. We have seen each other grow, find love, and helped each other through unfortunate circumstances. I will always be in debt to this community for introducing me to so many valuable friendships. Having come across someone's old post congratulating me on me twelfth birthday ignited a lot of nostalgia within me. I realized: wow, in a week, I will be eighteen...still reminiscing on my clubpenguin days. With all that being said, I hope everyone has a safe, and peaceful year. Feel free to reach out to me on discord (masratas#2258)

Tiki, aka TikiLiki, this is so surreal. I never would've thought we'd be posting about possibly meeting each other 8 years after we met. 10 year old me would have never been able to fathom that, if someone told her, she'd think you'd be lying. I love you and this community so much and I think about it quite a lot <3

While I don't know you personally since I joined in, like, 2015, I've heard quite alot about you from other people and you seem like a genuinely cool person. I'm so glad that you're gonna be meeting one of your friends from here, I've wanted to meet mine for ages. Happy early birthday as well (if the title is correct, which I'm assuming it is..) Honestly I've made so many friends on this community and I wouldn't know what my life would be like had I never joined that night in 2015.

Hope you have a good year.

This is really heartwarming to read, I'm so glad you are doing well although I don't think we know each other very well. Kara was one of my best friends in this community and I'm hope shes out there living her best life. I always think of her when I listen to Coldplay as well...

Stay safe and I hope you get into those colleges!! Reach for the stars

This discussion right here truly moved me, it really put into perspective just how surreal everything is (as you stated above). Although many of us joined here during childhood, there’s no doubt just how impactful this community is in regards to everyone here.

I have known you for such a long time, and I can say that YOU have also impacted my time on here, whether you believe it or not. I am also just wanting to say how incredibly proud I am of you. I wish you the best in life, as you pursue your next journey ahead with college, potentially meeting Gaf (Tornado), as well as turning 18! Your life is just beginning to blossom, and I can’t wait to see what you make up it.

I have had the honor of meeting some of the best people in my life on this community, and even was able to meet Bailey in person, someone who I genuinely couldn’t picture living without today... in fact, he’s with me right now as I write this response... who would’ve thought? Regardless, again, I wish you all the best! ❤️
