Hi everybody I'm new here again!
My name on here was/is Cinder but my name everywhere else is Anna. I'm 21, a fiend for candy, a fan of art and cool visual things, and I love animals both vertebrate & invertebrate more than anything in the universe. Honestly I love too many things to list but it's ok
I first joined this forum in early 2009 as an embarrassing 13-year-old and gradually became a very active member, eventually settling on the username Cinder for myself, and it stuck. I probably stopped actively posting in 2013? but still checked back in every once in a while. You may remember me from some of my adolescent endeavors, mainly in the random babble boards
endeavors such as:
having an obsessive crush on actor Dev Patel in 2009-2010
feeding into my friends' Percy Jackson and the Olympians phase
swearing so much I got myself banned on multiple occasions
using so many gifs that people's pages froze
thinking I was edgy for watching Skins lol
discovering things years after they came out (I'm On A Boat)
attempting to establish a religion for myself called Cinduism (yikes!)
being a hater
making a switch to all lowercase typing when i started high school bc i was cool now
having the highest post count on the forum by…too much
having terrible taste in "dark humor" I'm so so sorry
entitlement tbh
12-year-old humor well past the age of 12
fangirling
love and good times, hopefully!
It seems like v4's archival remains have disappeared? All those memories lost but also thank goodness my middle/early high school opinions are no longer immortalized (no offense to current middle or high schoolers! It seems like teens are getting more mature much earlier nowadays, and I can only speak for myself when I say that I'm humiliated by a lot that I said and thankful for all the growth and learning that I've had since. This isn't a judgment on teens as a whole, I promise ❤️)
I'm eager to find out who's still around from those days and who's joined the forum since! I can't say I'll be particularly active on this again, but it's nice to check in and see how things are going on this site.
It's good to be here!!!
