Hello again my childhood home :)

[Cassie]

Hi everyone. Ain't this a blast from le past.

It's sooo weird to be back. Just thought I'd briefly pop in. I haven't had much time to look around yet, but it seems the forum is so quiet now BUT I just wanted to say I have so many happy memories of this place. I actually associate it strongly with my childhood and it's popped into my head a few times over the years. There was so many interesting characters and fun to be had on here. Just typing this out is bringing me back (the format has barely changed at all lol).

I'm old now, of course. I joined this forum when I was 14. I'm now 24. Crazy stuff. My life has changed a lot since my time on here, BUT I still play Sims. I'm very much a grown up now, I guess. Sadly my mum died last year so I'm what you would call an 'adult orphan' if that's what you would call it as my dad is not around either. So I own my own property and pay my own bills and work my own life which I never thought when I was on here I'd ever be grown up enough to do, haha. I've been through a lot. I'm now studying towards a teaching degree because when I was younger I dropped out of college as I didn't know what to do, so ended up working full time in various crappy jobs. Other than that, I guess just typical normal life.

I don't know if I was on here or not at the time, but you guys know I am a huge Harry Potter fan, and I went to the premiere of the final film (6 years ago now!!!) when I was 18, and met some of the cast, touched Rupert Grint (only on the arms sadly) and got J.K Rowling's autograph in my DH book. She touched my fingers guys!!! Haha.

Anyway, I'm gonna shut up now as I'm not expecting anyone to read this, but I still wanted to write on here today, I have no idea why. I just felt like visiting my past after the tough life I've had recently. This was my place of being a kid and being innocent, and I hope it stays online for a long time, even if no one ever posts again. I used to spend ridiculous amounts of time here, it really was my second home and I don't regret it one bit! I've now added one more post to my massive post count as well, woo!

Thanks everyone for this amazing place and lovely memories.
