For 2016...and Looking Back, Fixing Stuff

I played PP for a few times back in 2016, found a reader of my blog and promised them that I would update my blog...but I ended up not updating anyway. I'm really sorry Aquachan, and thank you for your tell and comment.

So what happened was I joined a competition and unbelievably got 1st place in Excellent Alchemistry.

Then Aquachan found me and sent me a tell.

I barely had any content to post about so I just waited til the next time I could log in but I got busy with college again and...time just passed.

During winter, I saw a yeti for the first time.

There were also cute screenies like these in my PC:

2016 was just...the most cruel year for me. I blocked myself from using Twitter, Facebook and other social media to focus on my last year of college and my dancing activities. It was just a back and forth between eat-college-dancing-barely any sleep-eat-college-dancing-barely any sleep...like that. (No, don't say "then just quit dancing" NOOOO xD) Then I graduated and started working from 2017 and I'm left with no time again.

And I'm rambling again...

Anyway! I wasn't paying attention to my online stuff that I didn't notice PP being much more dead than before, the entrance of Dark Seas, Tinypic closing etc. I recently logged in in Meridian and there were only 5 people (including myself) online...it's such a sad state. Then I revisited this blog and boom! My background picture is gone...actually, the other pictures I stored in Tinypic are all gone. They apparently closed last year? And Photobucket keeps on messing up with people with their stupid plans so my blog looked like this:

So I had no choice but to re-upload all my pictures to Google, which at the moment seems more useful and trustworthy. No stupid and outrageous $400 a year plan like the initial plan of Photobucket. Their current plan is much lower now but I still won't use them anymore, not after all that drama that was a betrayal to all their users.

Anyway! I changed the background picture even though I still have the previous purple butterfly one. I think I like this dark one better. :) But for the rest of the tinypic pictures, alas...I didn't back them up anywhere else so sadly they are lost forever. T-T I did try restoring a few others that I found, and in the process I had to re-read my entire blog...

And oh boy was it so cringy and embarrassing... xD

But I decided not to touch them and just keep them like that, for memories and nostalgia purposes. Yes, all of the typos, grammar mistakes, the craziness...everything!

I've recently started logging in and playing again, but this time in the Emerald ocean since Meridian is almost empty. I do pop in Meridian once in a while to check up on stuff and to mem for a few minutes though, so if anyone is hesitating on playing, whichever ocean just go for it! Let's revive PP back from the dead! xD
