I'm on top <3

[.:.S.:.t.:.o.:.r.:.m.:.]

A 3.8 is pretty good, Scout. XD

And I'm thinking about maybe Stony Brook University on Long Island, or Columbia University in New York City. Or maybe, maybe if I can get in, Harvard. I'm not sure exactly which one I want to go to yet (assuming I can get in, of course) but they're my top three choices.

[♥S.C.O.U.T.♥]

I was thinking of moving in with Teem and Livvy and going to Santa Barbara with them, and if that doesn't work, I'll just go to UT (University of Texas) or Rutgers in New Jersey. But you're choosing all the hard schools, Storm.

[.:.S.:.t.:.o.:.r.:.m.:.]

Yeah, I know.

But those are all of the good medical schools I know of, and none are really that far from where I live now, so it's convenient in that way.

Not saying that I'll get in or anything, but yeah.

[~.:Whisper:.~]

hey everyone I've missed you guys so much. It's been a while, hasn't it? Look, I just wanted to put my two-cents in, see what you think. Flameface, we've been through all the ups and downs of a roller-coaster. There was a time when I hated you, I wanted to punch you many a time, but I've come to realize a lot in the years that I've been RPing: it just doesn't matter.

None of this is real, even though it sometimes feels that it is. None of this is real and yet we all fight and talk like it is. What satisfaction do you gain from taunting these people? From throwing a site that they have worked hours on in their face? No, it's not real but it's still something that they--and I myself--have put a TON of work into. It's something we're proud of and you have no right to take that away from us. It makes me proud to see Flame's post, to see that she's come to understand as I have. We've all matured in different ways and at different times and we've grown up. That doesn't mean that we wouldn't like to RP once in a blue moon (see? I have time to get on the computer for the first time in 3 months and I came here...I was sad to see it had died) and that certainly doesn't mean that we can't still be proud of what we did here. I may have grown out of RPing but I look back at the fights and plots and people that I met here and know that it's become a part of me and will shape who I turn out to be. Every little thing that you do, every person that you meet---you're never the same after. It all affects you in some little way, changes you.

So, stop making up GPA's to try and prove that you're better than one another. That's stupid and it wastes everyone's time. Who cares if you have better grades? Do your grades define the kind of person you are? No! What matters are the things you do and the words you say and the friends you make. You want to leap up on that pile of scrap metal in the junkyard and gloat about how this site's come to ruin? Go ahead. It may have been my choice to leave when TBC became TTL because I didn't approve of the switch but I didn't go crazy and scream at everyone because I didn't get what I wanted. I kept my account because I love the people here and wanted to stay in touch, if only just a little. Whatever you say, Flameface, it can't take away the family that has been created here. With or without you, we love each other and will defend each other. If you can understand that and accept that and mature a little bit yourself, you are welcome here. I have no fight with you, no matter what's happened in the past.

[J/o/y!]

<sub>We've missed you too, Whisper. I'm so glad you can still find time every once in a while to come on the computer. You must be crazy busy! I'm happy I'm still in middle school and don't have to worry about that kind of stuff... yet, anyway.

Well, all I can say to that is that I agree. Whisper pretty much covered everything, so I'll keep it at that. One thing about the fake GPA's, though: my mother once told me that in the end, knowledge and good grades will help you get a job, but what if the people there don't like you? It'd suck for ya, right? In the end (ugh I'm so repetitve these days xD), these little lessons that you learn from the steps and decisions you make are going to be the most important! It's been drilled into my head ever since I started school is that I've got to make good grades to help me in the future. I've learned that now good grades are important, but none of that is gonna help you enjoy your life if you make as many enemies as some people do. What's the fun of gloating at people? When you finally learn your lesson, it turns out to be embarressing, and the person often regrets it. Now, regret is the worst thing to feel and I'd rather stay away from it by not making a reason to regret in the first place. Right?

About the whole college thing (I like that subject... this might help me once I've gotta decide where to go), I have no idea what I might be. I want to do something with math and science, two hard subjects but something I've always enjoyed. Do any of y'all have any good suggestions? I've been thinking of majoring in architecture or biomedical engineering or such. Again, any suggestions?

Storm, you're extremely intelligent; and don't deny it, 'cause you know it, but I know you just don't want to sound like a braggart. I wouldn't worry too much about not getting in. I don't know exactly what kind of medical work you'd like to do (surgery, research, etc...) but I just looked up "good medical colleges in new york" and there's one called New York Medical College that seems good... but I'm terribly inexperienced in college judgement. It's in Westchester county.

I got my SAT scores on Saturday, and I actually scored pretty high And a 3.8 is pretty good, Scout. Don't feel stupid. That's actually my GPA.</sub>

Westchester County New York Medical College

[.:.S.:.t.:.o.:.r.:.m.:.]

I have something major to confess...

And I know Sand already knows, and you guys may have guessed at it, too, but I don't know. I don't want this site to end with me continuing with my horrid lying.

I'm not actually 17.

I'm Joy's age.

I said I was so much older than I really am because I thought at the time that everyone was much older than they were. Now this is not an excuse; there never really is for lying. This is just my reasoning. And I've been meaning to tell you this for awhile.

So hate me and all of that crap; I don't care, because I pretty much deserve it. This is one of the few things I've lied about (my living in New York, for example, is the dead truth), but it's very major, and I don't want to have to keep lying. Especially not now.

Yeah. I just wanted to say that.

So much for me being intelligent.

[Golden /~/ Shatter]

Hey guys, it's Gold I haven't seen this place in ages, but whisper told me about Storm so I decided to check it out. Storm, I'm dissapointed that you've kept up such an elaborat lie about your age and grade. Honestly age doesn't matter that much, it's only the Internet for goodness sake.

I'm going to try and keep it short, but if I don't, oh well

I've missed you guys... I had good times here. I'm sorry the site died. I was going to leave TBC anyway, because honestly it didn't matter, but still. You guys were great Joy, Spotty, Sand, Flame, Silver, and you Storm. Even though some of you aren't here now, it was good times.

For flameface: seriously go get a life. You're pathetic.

And for all of you talking about school and grades, I'm not trying to be mean or anything, really. But middle school DOESNT MATTER. It's a cakewalk compared to highshool. And the younger you are, the easier it is to get good grades. I'm just telling you the truth. Middle school doesn't matter, honestly I think it matters less than elementary school. A 3.8 is FANTASTIC in highschool, but it's not as easy to get.

It was nice to see you guys, I hope you have a good time. I'd never RP again, I didn't even really want to when I was a part of the site. You guys were fun and it was the only reason I stayed.

[♥S.C.O.U.T.♥]

Oh my god Golden it's your birthday, yes<3

Anyway, I suppose I should come clean too. Both Storm and I have been lying to you all. I am actually her age as well, and in 7th grade too. We both had the thought we would be judged by our ages and such so we lied about being 17 and 15.

But Storm is still very smart no matter what her age is xDD

Anyway, I'm glad you both posted because I haven't talked to either of you in ages.

<3 Whisper you need to keep in touch with me, as well as you Golden, or I will rage at you both :B

[J/o/y!]

*Continuously slaps self at least ten times before getting to the point*

Storm, Sand, I must say, I truly believed that y'all were 17 and 15. You guys had some maturity about you... not. Lol jk jk

Age doesn't matter to me. Y'all didn't have to lie about your ages. Honestly, I have an uncanny way of making friends with four-year-olds and nineteen-year-olds alike. Age is but a number, as theys say.

Golden, I swear, if you don't email me soon, I'm tracking you down and will MAKE YOU DO IT
