(got this idea from @Rosys_paradise - go follow her)

Oh. My. God. 2024 is over? That's so unreal... it's 2025... Oh. My. God. This past years has been eventful to say the least. December 2023, I created my first Wattpad account, and got my first follower. Then, I lost my account, and I created this one. I lost my account at 50 followers, and started crying because I thought I'd never get that many followers again. But here I am, 22 followers away from 200. It's so unreal.

I'm so prepared for this year, and I promise I'll do better on Wattpad. I made so many new friends this year, and I'm so grateful for all of them. I've never felt so loved before. I literally love you all so much, like it's not even crazy.

This school year, even though it hasn't even been that long, has felt like such a long journey. I stuck with friends, lost some, and gained some. Drama happened, but what else could you expect? TikTok trends invaded my life, and it's weird to think I lost a handful of friends because of the clothes of wear, what I do own, and what I dont own. It's nice to think that I lost the fake ones, the ones that wouldn't stay with me. The ones that did stay, have forever left my grateful.

I gained many new friends, and I literally love them so much. I realized that my crush is a jerk, I liked someone else, and realized that they're a bully, I like someone else, and he's an absolute sweetheart. I came out of my comfort zone at school, and I am so thankful for it. My best friend has stuck with me through thick and thin, and even though we're in different classes, our bond holds us together.

School got rough, I lost myself a couple times in my lowering grades, but in the end I got through and scraped by with a couple low A's. But back to Wattpad. I love you guys so much. Some of you got my out of my toxic friendships, and realized that my bad thoughts aren't the ones I should be focusing on, but instead the positive words from you guys and friends.

I don't really know what else to say, so I want to give multiple honorable mentions to some of my favorite people.

@notgigi_regina, i literally love you so much. you are the kindest, sweetest person i have met, and i will forever be thankful for you. if you aren't following this angel, definitely go follow her! (manifesting 400 for 2025)

@Rosys_paradise Rosy, you are so kind and such a bright person. I can't believe we joined around the same time, and have only just became friends. You are so kind, so sweet, so respectful, and honestly such a bright person. Even though this is very recent and hasn't happened yet, I just know you will be there to here my rants about Prince Cardan <3 if you guys aren't following her, literally go follower her (i see 600 in 2025)

@EnterTextHere101 you are literally so hilarious, and sometimes, i literally hate you so much, but other times i literally love you so much. GUYS- the writing this dude has is chef's kiss. go follow NOW. (i see 500 in 2025)

@hawthorneslovebot jasmine, you are the stupidest (in a good way), kindest, funniest, and impeccable writer i've ever met. even though you're on hiatus, i hope you see this and just know that i'm so happy knowing that i've met you. definitely go apply to her apply fics and follow her (she needs to get to 700 in 2025, K?)

@wheezely Alice, you are like the older sister that i've never had, and i literally love talking to you. you introduced me to a whole nother music genre (we stan conan), and i will forever thank you for that. you are so kind, and i freaking love you and your writing. GO FOLLOW HER! (i'm forcing her to have 200 in 2025)

@Writing_West (not saying ur name cuz i know you don't want it on here) i can't believe we met in the spring when i was pulling an all nighter, and our friendship has just grown since. the most unhinged things you say is what keeps me laughing when times are hard. i fucking love you girl <3

@killwes CASSIE. i know we only started talking to each other like a couple months ago and you love me like you love ducks (xx), but your writing has me dying on my knees like your words and your layouts have me acting as if im ratatouille. can't wait to piss you off in 2025 (go get her to 2K during 2025)

@mk_crenshaw maren (name still has me gasping for air), you are literally so kind and so sweet, and even though we didn't talk a lot in 2024 (partly my fault for being so indecisive with my username), everytime we did talk had me smiling because of how kind and funny you are. (heavily manifesting 2K in this upcoming year xx)

@-sharpesttool amelie, i know we haven't talked a lot this year, but i've definitely noticed how wonderful, kind, sweet, funny, and how good of a writer you are in these past few months. your writing has me waiting for so much more, and i can't wait for more of penora. i'm praying you'll get to 500 in 2025!

@arianater4life val, i know we barely talked this year, but you are so funny and kind. i know how bad 2024 has been for you, but i just want you to know that you made my 2024 better <3 (manifesting that you'll get to 500 in 2025)

@mqybankks taylor, i can't believe we met in an applyfic, started talking more, and i hope i stand in a place to call you my friend. your themes, your writing, your humor, and your (online) actions has literally sent me over the edge. you're literally so kind and funny, and i'm praying on my knees that you'll get 400 in 2025.

Goodnight.
