Quitting.

This is really sudden but I feel like I needed to say this.

I'm quitting this blog...

This post is really hard to make, after over 3 years of blogging but yes, I'm quitting. This is sudden for me too, as just a week ago I was making a template and all for this blog in hopes that I'd start posting again but I really can't keep this up anymore. I feel like a really bad person by quitting all of a sudden without saying anything to my friends.

I thought long and hard last night, and decided that this was for the best.
I don't have any interest in Animal Jam anymore, I really, really don't. I've grown out of it and if I continue trying to write posts for something I don't enjoy anymore, it'll end in failure. And by failure, I mean me not being able to write anything at all but pretending that I still like AJ. I don't want to make false promises and not being able to act on them. I can't stay on AJ for over 2-3 minutes nowadays because, well, there's nothing to do. My buddies are not online when I am. It's not their fault, we just have different time-zones. AJ has changed a bit over the past few months and because of my long 2-3 month break from it, I've completely lost my interest. More or less, I've grown older and I've found new things that I enjoy.

School is also a huge problem. I would've quit next year because of school, even if I still was interested in AJ. Once high school starts in my country students have to go to these ''academies'' after school. They're basically just normal school hours but.. after school? It sucks. My parents have a lot of expectations from me. They want me to go study abroad after my 3rd year in high school. I know I'm not in high school yet but this grade is still very hard. We have huge tests and a lot of homework. I get less than an hour to do leisure activities, just think about how hard things will get next year for me. It's very scary. I don't want to be spending a bunch of time playing AJ, writing posts and all that when studies are very hard.

To be fairly honest, school is a smaller problem than my loss of interest.

I have a little message for all of my buddies as they're the only reason I've been playing AJ for these 3 years. This is awfully cheesy but I mean it. Thank you so much! Thanks so much for always sticking by me. You've all cheered me up on my worst days, made me laugh and smile countless times and been the best of friends one could ever have, even though we don't even know each other in real life. I know I'm not a very good friend but I try my hardest, I really do. I'll still try to talk to you all on other social medias because I really can't think of ever not being with you guys forever. I can't even convey my feelings properly in words. Uhh, this sounds so cheesy and dramatic but I really, really, reaaaaally mean it. :D

I'm actually crying so hard right now. It's hard to post this. I don't want to quit but I can't keep posting either. I'm so, so sorry. Thanks so much for everything, guys. I'll never forget about this blog. Hopefully, if I ever get the time, I'll make a post telling you guys about how I'm doing.

Again, I'm sorry for bringing this up at such a happy time of the year. I'm greatly sorry. I just couldn't keep it all in for long.
Well, this is it. I could say so many things but I don't know how to write them down into words. Thank you for all your support throughout the years. I love you all so much, remember that. <3

Goodbye! I hope we can talk again sometime. ^.^

Template Finished + Note

Hellooooo! How are you all?
I'm making this post to tell you guys that the new template is up! Please let me know what you think of it. :3 I worked really hard on it. If there's something you think I should add, feel free to let me know. :)

I also wanted to tell you all something. As you know, school has started for me again. I returned to posting thinking that they'd take it easy this time but studies are still super duper hard. Because of this, I'll only be able to post on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays. I really hope that you guys understand.  ^.^' I'll try my hardest to post when I do get the time.

That's all I had to say for this short post. I'll see you all later! Bye!

Template Under Construction

Hi guys! This is going to be a very short post. I just wanted to tell you guys that I’m gonna be working on this blog’s template for a couple of days. Don’t mind it if it looks weird right now! School just started again and so I’m kinda busy with a lot of things. I expected this term to be easier but looks like we’re getting two whole weeks of tests... again! -.- Because of school, I won’t really be able to get on the computer for long so I’m gonna divide the template work so that it’s easier.

I really want this one to look good. My blog always looks really messy and the sidebars are always super hard to read. Feel free to leave any suggestions! :D Oh and this month’s template is going to be winter. 

P.s, the template right now might seem done but I’m actually still working on it. I need to adjust quite a bit of things. 

So Many Things to Catch Up On!

Hello Jammers! Purple here! :D How are you all doing? I've been feeling really happy and energetic (which is really unusual for me XD) ever since December started. Probably because winter is just awesome. I love winter way too much. Especially since I don't have exams this time around. lol

Anyways, as I promised in my last post, I'll be checking out all the new things that have come to AJ in the past 2 months. Some of these things were complete surprises while I did see some of the new features from Youtube and other social media but I had fun looking at all that AJHQ had added. While I did ''like'' the new features, I really felt like they've gotten too obsessed with diamonds. But that's just my opinion.

First, I wanted to check out this...

R.I.P Club Geoz.

While this place looks really good and we can learn a lot about the alphas and stuff, I still miss Club Geoz. I do know that AJ worked super hard on this new room so I'll give them that. 

Not trying to be a party-pooper buuuut this was pretty sneaky of AJHQ to do. A second ''diamond shop'' thing for armors and things like that. :P As if 2 weren't enough.

You guys: Ok, Purple. STOP BEING SO SALTY. 

Me: K, I'll stop but I won't forgive AJHQ for getting rid of my Club Geoz. :V

You guys: Just, shut up.

Me: Ok. :C

PET SCORPIONS. 

AHH.

ARACHNIDS.

NOOOOOOOOO.

Jk, they're cute. (Sure) 

The new pets are honestly really nice. I like the dolphins. 

(Yes, I'm aware that the pandas and koalas aren't new lol)

THIS.... THIS IS SO FRIGGIN' CUTEEEEEEE!

I wanna hug it. XD *squeeeeeeze*

Pinky the Flamingo?! :O (If you're my buddy, you might know who I'm talking about. XDD)

In all seriousness, the new animals are really cute. I like them. XD

I want one of these so, so much but sadly, I'm a non-member. AJHQ needs to make one of these for non members. Pretty please? XD These items are really creative. I love them so much!

I was super confused during this adventure. I wasn't really giving it my all so that's probably why but I'm glad AJHQ is adding new adventures and stuff into the game. It's nice. :3

(I know this isn't new but some of the items are.)

I love the fireplace. :o

(This isn't new either but I bought everything because I forgot how hard diamonds are to earn as a non member. R.I.P)

Ok, I LOVED this room so, so much! I love the aesthetic and the mysterious vibes it gives off and ah, I just love it. XDD

Why though?
--------------------------------------

Those were all the things I found on AJ. Let me know if you think I forgot to check out something big. That's all for now! 

Peace out. <3
