So what has become?
It's now a new year and I feel I've made much progress on this site. Normally I minimize my efforts as I expect greatness, but I've learned being perfect isn't something you can achieve. My 'For You' in the navigation is mostly completed while 'Sitely' is being worked on one step at a time.
Who are you now?
I believe in things such like luck, hope, karma, and souls. Humans have a consciousness to them that's driven by the soul. Each one is different yet we attract the ones we take an interest in, yes for an entire being to be fascinated by its interiors, yes?
The home I stayed in for most of high school has a preschool next to it. One day I was walking home from the grocery store and happened to walk past one of the teachers who said: "You've grown so much."
When you stop to think about where you are and how far you've gone, doesn't the past seem like a few days? Like it happened so fast? Right now you could think time is passing its usual hour by hour, but the next month will come in less than 10 minutes. That's how navigating through life feels.
Many times in my life I've been deep inside somewhere dark. There were many times I wondered when my time would end. Despite my desperate efforts of wanting to leave time, my soul refused to disappear. When I think back on my past efforts, I wonder: 'Will I feel the same relief in the future?'
Well only time will tell, of course.~
From yours truly,

Where the HELL have you been!? And what about V3?!
The bustling streets of webpages, callings of webrings, and the forever pondering 'save' button was something I missed. Seriously, why do I keep forgetting how fun it is to run a website...?!
I get to a point in my life where I'm at a standstill. Something consumes me so much I forget to do anything else, I even forget to open the computer. Life has a sort of hellish feel to it when you 'fit' into the basic mold of society. Blending in is something I hate, and something im terrible at.
What happened to V3?
Everyone has a place where they belong. If you don't, then you haven't found it yet. As I sit in my class, never speaking and in the far back, I code Dollspace V3 on my second hand chromebook. My feelings of loneliness and hopelessness was simmered down when I typed my 20th div inside a div.
Despite completing the main page, credits, and even more it was never shown. Why? Im not asking you, im asking myself!
It wasn't good enough. And because of this dissatisfaction, I once more fell into the mundane way of life, where I lost my spark and motivator. I lost my website as it collected dust.
I lost who I was.
So then, Who Are You?
At a certain point something lit me on fire. I don't know if it was the Florida sun or something unknown, but whatever it was sparked my light once more. There I was thinking about all the piercings I wanted, the tattoos, the clothes, the makeup, like I had my whole character planned out in front of me.
Did I know who I was? Slowly, yes. Sometimes.
Then I realized something. It was time. Time to come back to my home and to the comfort of my room. The new look and launch of the site has me feeling so comforted. The fact I actually finished it and keep coding more makes me worry if I change my character AGAIN!!!!
I BETTER not! I spent long hours on this website already, and I plan to dedicate more as I think of new ideas and plans. The web is my home, and I belong here. I belong on this very page, this very stylesheet and html I crafted by hand. I made a place where I belong.
And you belong here, too!
I like the idea of someone out there on the internet reading my writing and what I have to say. My room is a place where I don't have to be silent, so if you read this far….
Thank you. From yours truly,
Luna.
