Well, I learned a very valuable lesson today. When wearing a racerback shirt outdoors for eight hours, sunscreen is advisable. I have many regrets.

My first ever twins! One of them is female, too, which I was losing my entire mind trying to hatch just of one this whole hunt.

If anyone was wondering, which I'm most positive you were, it's very difficult to do the PH Safari Zone with acrylic nails! It's very difficult to do a lot of things, actually; I love them, but am seriously struggling.

You know you’ve graduated to a new level of crazy writer when you settle down to voluntarily read Immanuel Kant for three hours to help with the moral philosophy of a complex character you’re intending to start drafting for.

To the mad lad in the office who just Rickrolled my entire high school over the PA system:

Well played.

I got all excited last night because I made a Healthy Meal Plan TM for this week in an attempt to eat less sugar. How did I celebrate this self accomplishment? By coating apples in two different kinds of sugar and baking them for forty minutes to draw out more sugar for breakfast, of course!

My prom dress has pockets and I am ecstatic. All of my goals in life are fulfilled, save for one. My wedding dress shall follow this example.

You’re never truly best friends with someone until you go through a car wash with them. Ralsei, now we can REALLY be friends.

Haha, not… not me visiting Ralsei’s profile every chance I get just to look at her avatar, nooooo…

Pride and Prejudice so far is literally just a gossip Public Service Announcement.

Thank you all so much for the birthday wishes!!! <3 I can't believe it came so quickly!

I honestly never thought I'd make it this far; three years ago, I was fighting depression, and around this time, I almost lost. I remember running away from my house one day, fully intending to never go back. For two and a half years beforehand, I'd wanted nothing more than to die, and was finally at a point where I was going to make that happen. For some reason, I impulsively started praying; I actually prayed for God to HELP me die. Every time I tried to stop talking, I couldn't, and I must have sat there for 10 minutes repeating that I was through with living. It was like God kept asking me if I was sure; by the end of that prayer, my words had turned from, "God, please let me die," to, "God, please, I don't want to die."

The fact that I've just cleared another year is quite literally a work of God. I'm so grateful that He saved me and to have met you all; Ilysm! Things DO get better. <3

Heyyyy, everyone, Rain here, reporting from 2:50 am. Just tripped, fell, and hit my head and knee on... I literally don't even know what; I didn't see the gigantic vacuum cleaner in the center of the room. This occurred whilst I was in a well-lit room, wearing a blanket, and carrying my cats' water bowl, so now I am soaked, sore, and sad.

"I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do."

Was chatting with Ralsei and we have determined that Romans 7:15 NIV is now the mantra of all students, artists, and writers. Thank you, Paul.

My body decided to have the physical equivalent of a mental breakdown today in a Panera while I just sat there watching it. However, I am glad to report that there is nothing prayer and watching cat videos on the internet cannot fix.

Met Ralsei today!!!!! Y'all, she's so tall, it's literally unfair.

In all seriousness, I'm so blessed to have been given this opportunity. I never thought I'd meet one of my best friends online, of all places, but Rals is one of the sweetest people I've ever met. She's one of my two closest irl friends and is always there to chat when I need something. <3

An important disclaimer, though, and I am fully aware I may sound like a broken record. Please be careful with meeting people who you have met online, especially if you are a minor. Ralsei and I have known each other for over a year, spoken to and seen each other on video calls, and her parents and mine were nearby the entire time; we were also with a group of mutual friends. Safety should ALWAYS come first, and even all of that isn't a guarantee that someone is who they say they are.

Me: I have a big important day tomorrow, I should make sure to go to bed early.
Also me: Ooo, chocolate covered coffee beans! Three couldn't hurt... Okay, maybe three handfuls... Okay, maybe three bags...

Ralsei is officially one of the most fun people to absolutely decimate with drawings of certain guys she finds attractive.

On a totally unrelated note, I may or may not be in trouble with a close friend of mine for drawing someone in a Christmas sweater and am now fearing for my life.

Delta just laid her head on my shoulder and let it rest there and I feel so loved you non-cat-people have no idea.

No, the salt issue has not been resolved. My keyboard is quite painful to type on and half the time the keys don't work when I press them. Mistakes were made.

Y'all there is a piece of salt stuck in my backspace key and it's driving me insane.

<- This is Rain. Rain spilled salt on her computer while cooking dinner and now the keys click very strangely. Don't be like Rain.
