Just doing a little reflecting here today....

A year ago I was a pretty different person then I am now. I'm not talking about the surface, thou that has changed, but on the inside I was rather messed up. A very sad and lost child.

I know I'm risking emo jokes talking about this (looking at you Sqwee!) but that's just how I was. Shitty school life, shitty social life, and a shitty home life. I didn't really have much going for me, and to tell the truth I almost gave up on everything. I just didn't see the point to anything. One day fallowed the next, in a seemingly endless void (bite your tongue Sqwee!).

But then I met someone. Someone who's had the largest effect on my life then I think anyone else I've ever met has.

I'd been on dA for a few months by then but hadn't talked to her at all, even though everyone seemed to love her. So one day I guessed I'd figure out what the big deal was about her and in a rare act of boldness posted a very odd comment on her page. (Something about mind control, giant moths and talking monkeys I think)

She played along to my shock, and we went into a very long bit of randomness. Something just kinda clicked between us I guess, talking to her just felt so natural. We then went from dA comments to chatting on MSN allot. This went on for months and we grew closer and closer together. I got to find out all the interesting things about her and her life, and she was always there to give me good advice whenever I needed it. And I was always there for her when she was distressed. All in all, it was just really fun talking with her, it became the highlight of my day.

In the spring we exchanged phone numbers and began talking allot on the phone. (and I mean ALLOT! Good thing I've got a good long distance plan, eh?) Before I knew it she'd had become one of the most important people in my life, and for some reason (don't ask me why) I became very special to her as well.

I left that random comment on her page a year ago today, it started a relationship that changed me for the better in so many ways. I'm happier, stronger, wiser, and an all around fun person to be around.
