A thank-you ramble

So, coming off the great year that was 2016, I was totally hyped and ready for what 2017 had in store...or so I thought. It only took a month before 2017 decided to kick me right in the face. And after losing those kittens, a close friend backstabbed me which forced me to remove them from my life, and then some no-lifer wannabe hacker dudebro decided to try and convince people I'm some sorta bigot, (lul?) and after that, my cats died again, right before a hurricane that fricken ruined all my everything. And now I gotta defer my college scholarship, cuz I'm living in a hotel since my house is gone, only to get through that nightmare for my aunt to die of a heart attack. So, 2017, I commend you, for going balls-to-the-walls in a massive attempt to make me go crazy.

I might be down, but I am not out! While some parts of 2017 have been horrible, there's still been a lot of amazing moments as well. I, again, got to have the fantastic opportunity to attend E3 for GBAtemp, built my first gaming PC, stumbled into meeting my awesome boyfriend, made tons of really good friends on this site, really got into twitch streaming for GBAtemp with my friends, and most recently, got to experience the generosity of the best darn web community I've ever seen. From the heartwarming donations, to the kind words, you guys on GBAtemp really went above and beyond. I feel so blessed to be a part of this site, and it's amazing members. So I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone, for all that they've done for me. I can hardly express how grateful I am, and how much this has touched my heart. Through the ups and downs that the rest of this year will bring me, I can always remember this and feel happy again.

Thanks <3

Yeah, that is life in a nutshell, tons of good stuff and tons of bad stuff, perhaps this has been a year of balance for us.

Now this other stuff, is news to me, backstabbing friends, bigotry, boyfriend? While you may not really want to share personal details about it, can you least tell me how is a hotel cause i never been to one before. Is it kinda like that tv show where the two blond twins live in the hotel... suite life of zack and cody was it called? :P
 
@Sonic Angel Knight haha! hotels aren't as fun as that. It's like a one room apartment, kinda small, but it has everything you need. Definitely not like that TV show...but now I wanna go ride a coat rack like a skateboard! :P

Y'know when I first heard about Houston on the radio omw to work I did think of you despite my falling out and I actually donated to a rescue fund (there were a few on Imgur), so while we may not get along anymore, I really hope you're willing to at least talk to me for a little, even if it's just for myself which is a little selfish I guess.
I'm real sorry for what happened between us and I still find myself thinking about it once in a while, even though that's a little weird and corny.

Anyways I hope you're willing to contact me, I'd like to see what you've been up to, and share what I've been up to as well!

I wish you well, and hope things get better. When everything just sucks, the best way to get back is to be happy; it's like saying to life "Ha! You tried to make me miserable, but I'm laughing in your face, fuckers!"

Ahem. Pardon the language.

Anyways, good luck with everything. Maybe this last quarter of 2017 will get better. I hope that $15 I sent went through and was useful, I forgot to check up on it, sorry. Wish you the best, see you on Discord. Don't be miserable. That's what they want.

It's nice to hear that you're doing well! Take care of yourself, and don't forget the road into the future is always tough with their ups and downs, just don't let the downs get you so hard and you'll do fine!

My state of Washington was burning to the ground, but luckily I live in the city of Vancouver (Southern-most Washington, not that fake Vancouver up in Canada).
 
This is probably the most emotional a post has made me. I'm so glad you're okay, and hope you keep it up! You're awesome!

Jayro if you're worried about forest fires, you're in mega casual wannabe Vancouver.
BC is always on fire. We're just used to it by now. I could be on fire right now and not even notice.
Though tbh Vancouver is trash so your city stole the name of trash :unsure:
 
I just hope by this point a nuke doesn't drop on your house. You've had a rough year, and I wish you good luck for the rest of 2017. May 2018 be the best year you'll ever have.

    truth be told, i agree with psi, i dislike both candidates, but i'd probably vote trump simply because the economy was better during his presidency
