Man, 3 years having an internet presence? Thats… Insane to be honest. I never thought I’d get this far honestly, I mean I’m just an average teenager who draws stuff and has wacky interests, and people like that? People like me, for just being me? I guess I should talk about my history on this goofy website then! It all started in you guessed it, 2020! I had to do a project about interests or learn a new skill I wanted. I really wanted to code. I was a game enjoyer, and wanted to make something like that. I searched for something, and that lead me here. Thus, the account @rainbow_coder76 materialized into existence. I didn’t use it often, but I finished making my first project for that school assignment 4 months later. [My work ethic was so goofy back then lol] Summer passed, then 6th grade came. Somehow, I just found the site again from one of my friends and it changed everything. I created the first version of Cloudy, started drawing regularly, and made animation memes. I also got into WDY and I found some people here that liked it as much as I did. That made me feel accepted for the first time. I just started growing a presence over a year and got 300 followers. Not all things end pleasant though, My mental health had a breaking point, so I moved to this account at the beginning of this year. I started posting things that I enjoyed, even if they were cringe. I didn’t care, and I still don’t! I also got into the comic community and then CE was created. I took more breaks, and I’m starting to grow a community. Now, I want to say thanks because a few days ago I realized what scratch really means to me. Thanks for letting me be myself Thanks for caring about me and all that I went through. Thanks for supporting my endeavors and accepting me. Thank you to all that made fanart or left a kind word on my projects, that makes me feel valued. And now, some thanks to special peeps: To Moon: Thank you for caring about me and encouraging me, I wouldn’t have gotten through these past few months without you. Thanks for letting me express my interest in TMC, because I truly felt myself when taking about it. Thanks for being a great internet friend. To Kapi: Thanks for not making me feel bad about liking FNF, because I love that game to death and that’s part of me. I’m glad you feel the same way. To Link, Ranboo, and Fish: Thanks for inspiring me to try giving comic making a shot. I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for your stories and characters. <3 To Avery, Muggla, Nettie and folks from the WDY cult: Thanks for accepting me, you guys were the first friends I made here. I know we don’t talk much, but I’m glad you were there at the start! To Vamp and Fin: Thanks for being super chill and down right awesome! You guys are some of the coolest people I met on this site, and both of your art is just super cool. To people reading this: Thanks for being a kind community were I don’t have to feel bad for my interests, and I can express myself freely. I will never forget my time here. See you everywhere! - Cloudy/Oreo/Toast [All the names I went by here <3]
I was going to post this before I planned my break, but I’m still taking it :D
