    Ahh, congratulations to you both!! I feel like that kind of feedback really makes all the difference in how "accomplished" you feel. Or... maybe not everyone needs that validation, but it's certainly nice. It sounds like it was well deserved in both cases!

    companies can never take/use a flattering photo. My old job had a photographer come in and take "action" candids for the website and somehow managed to make our entire team look horrendous lol. Then cranked the contrast up in post so we all looked flushed ontop of it!

    Finally crawled out of a never ending pit of despair and depression that had engulfed me since June of last year I couldn’t find any source of light or see an ending in sight, couldn’t even find joy in Neopets or socializing here/in real life. I took a hiatus from literally everything and focused on myself and here I am! Hopefully this wasn’t too down/dampered the mood but I feel like my old self again after so long, it truly feels like I accomplished something!
    Which is the lie ..? The mask, or my face?

    THAT is an accomplishment, honestly. Welcome back! I hope you find a bit more sunshine and joy now that your brain will letcha I know that feeling all too well, and sometimes I just have to ride through it. It's so hard but you have made it to the light at the end of the tunnel!!!




    thank you Lyrichord for the amazing avatar!

    I had never quite gone through something quite as emotionally draining as what I did, so it feels good to be back. It probably aged me about 10 years but yeah, glad to be back!

    Doesn't dampen the mood AT ALL, that's amazing!! Congratulations. It can take so much fucking work to drag yourself out of the dark, I'm so glad that you were able to do it and are feeling better. It's a huge accomplishment!

    Congrats on the new post! Makes it even better when you actually enjoy your job!

    I recently got engaged. Big accomplishment for me since all other romantic prospects in the past failed.
    I'm very happy with that and managing to keep a job!

    Ahh, congrats on the engagement! That's super exciting. Are you getting into wedding planning right away, or taking it slowly for a bit?

    I don't have a license but I drove myself just down the road (Across the tracks + onto a highway) to go to the store by myself. I usually have my dad go with me just incase but I wasn't as scared as I have been in the past. Hoping this year I can make it 100% official to get my license

    I've been having a tough last semester in college completing some of the hardest economics courses. I got an A on my first midterm. I got a B on my last midterm, one of the only B's I've had in college, and it meant a lot to me because the class average was literally a 62%. I am trying to apply to law school after so I need a high GPA but I'm also struggling with finishing my thesis paper, applying for law school, studying for the LSAT, and finishing my two majors with hard courses x)). It's been tough out here. On another note though, I feel like I'm in a hopeful yet frankly scared place. I have so many dreams and plans after college but scared of losing close friends, failing after graduation, and in general, I feel like I'm a mixed bag of emotions. Funny how I came back to Neopets because of this. I've been looking for somewhere familiar to keep as a comfort place for myself.
