Mood

Blah

The day I joined Sheezyart.
The five year anniversary of being here has also come my way (makes me feel absurdly old at age 23), so like my compadres, I decided to reflect upon my tenure on this site. It's also the first time I've put anything on this site in months, so why not now?

SUMMER, 2004: After watching a few movies on Newgrounds, Legendary Frog's official website is brought to my attention. I got there, became a mod, was happy, and I was starting to think of getting into the flash movie business via voice acting. I click on someone's Deviantart site, but I was not very approving of its layout. Then, a Sheezyart link is posted in a thread, and once I clicked it once, I clicked it 94302432432 times.

In the end, though, I simply cannot forget this site. Was an enormous part of every day in my first couple of years in college, a place that I could not get enough of (the drama back then did help in keeping things interesting) and it was a bridge to the hobby of voice acting I've loved all these years. Even when I was gone from this site for years, I still managed to come back.

And now, I have met many of the people from those days in real life , , , , , , , , , , , , . Cool people with the same stories, experiences, and memories as me, so Sheezyart? Still on my mind.

In essence, I'll be here as long as it's up....and it had better be up long. LONG!!!! HARD!!!
