Title: GOFiversary
Post by: raga on February 05, 2010, 11:57:12 PM
One year ago last week was my last midterm exam week of my high school life.  Being a senior who had already been accepted into my college of choice I obviously could not care less about the midterms, so I had a lot of free time on my hands that week.  One particularly boring day I was flipping through some channels on my TV when I came across something I hadn't seen in years, the first Land Before Time movie.  I sat there absolutely captivated by it, and my love for LBT was born again.

Over the course of the next week three important things happened.  First I downloaded and started watching the sequels, enjoying the nostalgia of the movies I had loved as a child as well as looking forward to the new ones that had been released in the time since.  Secondly I started writing TEB, a fanfic that gets neglected by me.  And finally, on February 5th, 2009, I stumbled across the Gang of Five and instantly joined.

Its been an increadible year here.  I havn't been as active I would have liked, I thought I would be at 1000 posts no problem by now, this place has still meant so much me.  I consider all of you my friends, and as simply a matter of who I am, I love my friends.  I considered spending some time thanking everybody for their friendship by name, but I'm not very good at such things and I'm too afraid of forgetting someone.  So simply I know I value all your friendship and support.  GOF is a special place to me, and it shall always remain so.

If this keeps up, we're gonna need a new subforum for GOF anniversaries! :p

Seriously, though; congratulations, raga! :D One year, wow! I was also under the impression that you'd been here longer, despite the fact that my first visit to the GOF was chronologically earlier than your rediscovery of LBT. :blink:

By the way, how's The Eternal Bond going? I'm still up for the role of editor, just so you don't forget. ;)

Thanks everybody!  Yes I have been here for a year but for me its actually felt a lot shorter then that, I guess thats just because 2009 was a really good year for me.  And as for TEB, I'm working on it but I procrastinate a lot so don't worry Pangaea, I haven't forgotten.
