Wotta great community!
*pokes her nose in and peers around* I thought this would be an appropriate time to express my gratitude and love for this wonderful community. I feel sad that it's coming to a close, but I know we'll all move on to new BPAL adventures elsewhere :) I've only been around since August, which doesn't seem so long, until I realize it's almost August again.
Our BPAL family rocks. Sure we've had our ups and downs, but who doesn't? You've probably heard me ramble about this before, but I have been so pleased to find a community comprised of smart, creative, and gracious individuals. (There's a whole backstory that goes with it, ask me and I'll tell you about it sometime.) All the other fandoms I ever belonged to before were really tiresome and immature and this was the first one I found where I really fit into the community and was welcomed and embraced. I've made some great friends.
And a big thanks to everyone who donated to my fundraisers for the Autism Walk (
NAAR) and Relay for Life (
ACS). It's good to know BPALers care about social issues and events too. Immense thanks to everyone who put up with my sales delays and buttons falling off cozies and all the craziness that came with me trying to do BPAL + school.
Mad props to Beth and the Lab Gang, of course - who woulda thunk that perfume would inspire so many people and would bring us all together the way it has? Three cheers for the great place
alchemylab has been!
