Isn't that crazy?

A decade went by. 1 decade ago, this website launched and no one knew how much of an impact it would make to people's lives. Although some may think this is just a game, or a social website like any other, DSGHQ was an escape for many that didn't want to face the outside world. When I was 14 years old, it was the end of December when I had a random thought of wanting to find a Club Penguin game to play again. I am not able to tell you what my train of thoughts were that night but it does lead me to writing this post today. Being a teenager is a difficult time. You're confused with your feelings and emotions without understanding what they mean. We get mad and sad over things for almost no reason, and this game definitely tested everyone's patience sometimes. I am now 23, soon to be 24 years old in less than a week and I can honestly say I would not be the person I am today if I didn't find this community. It wasn't always sunshine and rainbows. There were times where I wanted to rip my hair out of frustration, and there were times that made me smile so big that I couldn't wait to log back on the next day.

There's a few people here that I grew real friendships with. There are some that I'm not in contact with anymore, but the memories will be cherished forever. I won't say specific names because I'm worried to leave someone out, but you definitely know who you are.

This game made me realize that it is worth working and fighting for what you want in life. Even if it was for ranks, prizes, etc., it pushed me to my limits to show that I am capable as a person. I hope that everyone here today finds their true passions in life, works hard for their successions and finds their true self. You'll be happy, I promise. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.
