Hello again

Akiko · **on:** June 07, 2015, 09:04:17 PM

I'm not sure how many people will remember me, I think it's been four years since I was last active on these forums. I originally joined way back in 2007...sheesh. Why does everything make me feel old these days?

Anyway. Life got chaotic as life often does. I won't bore you all with details, but judging from some recent topics posted in the Welcome Center it seems as if a lot of older users have returned recently! Perhaps it was fate then for me to come back now. I remember this community fondly and I've missed it.

PS: The username "Akiko" really doesn't suit me anymore but I don't know if it's possible to change it and didn't see the sense in making a new account. It's nostalgic for me at this point anyway.

Welcome back! I remember you, mostly because I always had to think of 'a kiko' (a neopet). How have you been?

Glad you didn't make a new account, we prefer people stick to the same account

Welcome back with us Akiko

I remember you and if it makes you feel any less old, I am still some months older than you are. The air we breathe doesn't taste any more stale after the 30th birthday

Always a great thing when a member returns. Glad to have you back.

Hahaha, I remember NeoPets! I still have an account on there even though I rarely use it anymore. That account is at least 13 years old now. :blink:

I've been doing alright, been through a lot of changes in the last few years but I've survived and I'm in a much healthier, happier state now for the most part.

I've felt old since I turned 13 but I'm glad I'm not the only one here who can say they've been around for three decades

Thanks again for the warm welcome back everyone, it's wonderful to see you all again - and hello to new friends as well!
