Thaidakar the Ghostblood

Happy birthday.

*Sits down*

I didn't plan on making this SU.

Nor did I plan on coming on here today.

I don't plan to do a lot of the major things I decide. They come in quick, decisive moments where every bit of my mind is chanting "Change! Change! Change!" This moment, right here, this is one of those moments.

I could not have chosen a better place to spend my time in the past three years than on here and in Minecraft, meeting people. My time has been truly phenomenal, I've learned so much, I've grown, I've changed, I've become a different person in so many different ways. 

However, there comes a time when you realize that you have to know when to stop. When you realize that the thing that helped you change so much perhaps has only one more change for you.

It's time to move on.

I... I didn't plan on this. I've already mentioned that, but I feel like it needs to be said again. I did not plan on doing this any time soon. I thought that I could stay on here the way I've been for a couple years, till my mission and all that. Yet... if I am going to actually change, I need to cut things out of my life. Which is why I am leaving the Shard.

I'm not leaving the Shard completely, I'll come on like once or twice on a weekend to make an update or look at people's profiles who I especially care about (Hey, I care about all of you, but even I have favorites) for SUs I might be interested. I'll hop on when a new book comes out to see how the discussion is going, maybe chip in some thoughts. It won't be the same.

I'm going to put up a few posts on threads I especially care about to wrap up some things, get a few last laughs. That'll prob be the last few times I post in those specific threads for a good long while. 

If some of you want my phone number or email, shoot me a PM before Sunday. Anytime after and I'll prob have deleted the thing that makes it so I get emails from the Shard, signed out and made it so I can't access the shard on most days. 

Look at the final two paragraphs in my about me. They're for you.

I didn't plan on making this SU, yet here we are.

This isn't goodbye, not forever. I'll be back every now and then for a small bit of time on Saturdays, and I won't be leaving till Saturday night.

I'll post another SU when I'm leaving, to let y'all know.

Until then, yours truly, Thaidakar the Ghostblood.

p.s. no, I'm not doing the Bilbo speech again.

Aight, yall. Heading out! I'll be back at like Saturday or something, as I mentioned. 

cya.

Haps birth!

Hey, y'all, sorry for the SUs in so close of proximity. I didn't realize I was gonna be doing this till literally just now.

For the past while, I've been on screens faaaaaarrrr too much for my own good and there are two major reasons for this. YouTube and the Shard. Now, neither are problems. I still want to go on these things. However, I also want to write more regularly and establish the habit of taking aside time each day to write. And, to do that, I'm going to need space away from both. 

Now, this means I will not be on the Shard for at least until Saturday. I'm going to write a post for the insanity clinic tonight at some point. I'm sorry hunger games people too, hopefully the hunger games is still going on when I come back.

If you need to message me or talk to me after I post that thing in the insanity clinic, then pm me and I'll check my email for shard stuff every day at some point. Whether I respond or not will depend on how important it looks from the email I get from it. So we'll see.

For now, this'll be goodbye! I won't be gone long, hopefully, but I will be gone. I'll come back on in a few hours to write that post, then I'll be off. Y'all are awesome, don't forget that. I'll miss y'all.

From your friend, Thaidakar the Ghostblood.

P.S. remember: Thaidakar from TLT was a hamster and his father smelt of elderberries. His mother was a gerbil.

P.P.S. also, someone post an inspirational SU for me while I'm gone.

P.P.P.S. may the memes be with you.

P.P.P.P.S. always.
