As 2020 is coming to a close, I find myself looking back on the year and I’m kind of an emotional mess. I’ve lost people, but I’ve also gained such new and wonderful friends and I’m so grateful for that. Tumblr first started as a silly place for me to follow some writing from blogs I liked, and has now ended the year with me being a writer, which I didn’t think would happen! I just wanted to take a moment to thank a few people who made 2020 the way it was for me.
First off, I just want to say a big THANK YOU! To all my followers! Whether you’re a new follower or you’ve been here since the beginning, please know I’m so thankful you’ve decided to come on this journey with me. You guys all make me so happy and I know I’m bad at answering messages and asks but I promise I’ll work on it and get better!!
@saeyoungs-sunflower - where do I even START? My Sunny gal, I love you so much. You’re the whole reason I started my blog in the first place and I’m forever grateful to you for that. Not just that, I’m so grateful for your friendship. You’ve been there with me through so many ups and downs in 6 months and there’s no one else I’d want to go through everything with. I love you so much bbgorl, I can’t wait for more adventures with you next. Thank you for putting up with all my shit (hello wisdom teeth removal) and still loving me regardless of how many otome boys I simp for.
@jihyuncompass - ANNE!!! I’m so happy we got over our awkwardness at the beginning because you have absolutely been such a wonderful constant in my life and you’re someone I can always rely on when needed or joke with when I’m feeling silly. You’re an absolutely wonderful human being and I can’t wait for the day you, me and Squids will visit Twilight Town and get wine drunk 💛
Speaking of @spacesquidlings.... Squids, you’re so lovely. I’m so happy that we connected like we did. Seriously, every time I see your name on my phone, whether it be on here, Discord, or Snapchat, I’m always grinning like an absolute fool because I just know you’re gonna have something fun to say that will make me laugh. Thank you so much for everything, you’ve done so much more for me than I can even begin to tell you.
@kingkassam - You know when you meet someone and you just have the feeling ‘this is a person I want in my life forever’? Well, that’s how I feel about you. You’re such an outstanding friend with a kind heart and I’m so lucky to have you in my life. Thank you for putting up with my random thoughts, lots of ranting and just.... everything. I cannot thank you enough for everything you’ve done for me.
@dreamer-hyun - Valvalval 🥰 I still remember the first time I ever interacted with you. You left such a kind message on my AO3 and I was so chuffed to imagine my work had any sort of impact on anyone but... getting to know you through the discord server and then one on one was 100000x better than I could imagine. I always look forward to your next message and I can always count on you to encourage every writing idea I have (and then never actually do alsksks). Thank you for being such a kind and warm present in this cold and confusing year.
@otomecooties - I seriously have no clue how to express how thankful I am for you and how much you mean to me... but here I am, trying. You came to me in the part of my life where I needed you the most, and I’m so thankful for that. You’re the person who understands me the most, who can put into words what I’m feeling when I can’t, the Yin to my Yang, the Helios to my Kiro. But despite you being Helios in the relationship, you’re such a positive ray of sunshine for me. Thank you for all the laughs, the serious convos, and most importantly: your friendship and love. I couldn’t imagine having a better platonic soulmate.
@yusuuna - my darling Rina, I love you more than words can express. I can always count on you to tell me how you feel straight up and I know you’re always looking out for my best interest when you do so. I’ve loved seeing your journey as an artist and I can’t wait to see you grow even more. Thank you for sharing a love of Yoosung with me and dealing with all my midnight ramblings. I love you.
@kittidot - Kitti, I’ve probably known you for longer than anyone on this list but we definitely took our time in becoming friends, and that’s why I cherish you so much. You’ve been a constant in my life for quite some time now and I’m so thankful for the fact that we have grown closer. Fangirling about Lovelink, MLQC, and sometimes Love Island with you is one of my favorite things to do... especially when we talk about writing ideas we swear we will do (but most of them haven’t even been started yet). Thank you for always being there for me when I need you most.
And some other people who I want to tag because they’ve definitely contributed to my amazing 2020 @stehkotori @beautiful-mystic-mess @belovedstill @ginkgowritings @birdcopsfangirlsblog @playheej @andinewton @eslyra @cheesy09 @thatfanfictionchick @mchamster @crystal13unny @meowlayn-art @thewritingsofadummy and I’m sure there is plenty more people I could mention. Please just know if I haven’t tagged you and we’ve interacted that I’m sure I meant to put you on this list, I’m just super forgetful xx
