Once upon a Snowflake

Happy Holidays everyone! I am your host, Sakura_Madison.

I have not been seen around lately because I have been busy for the holidays.

For Christmas I got a brand new tablet that I want to test out.

I will be giving out some freebies with some certain conditions:

• Do not beg for artwork. I will only give to those that trully deserve it.
• Do not PM me to pick you.
• Be nice to me and to others.
• Stick around to chat with me, since I have been alone for most of my time here.
• Not a first come, first serve basis on the artwork.
• Best of all, have fun!

Pickups

Freebies will be posted here. :D

Alright everyone!

Thread officially open.

Enjoy yourselves.

Hello Sakura!

How are you?

Haven't talked to you in a while.

Hey mewmew!

It is so nice to see you again.

Yea, I have not been here much lately.

I have been losing touch here and been on Gaia lately.

I am doing wonderful, but job life is such a bummer because I am not getting much hours now. Since the holidays are over, they cut my hours majorly.

How have you been?

I have been good. Finished the semester of college so I am on break right now.

I had a fun time on Christmas. Got lots of neat things.

And right now I am listening to music. An artist you probably never heard of since it's classic rock.

Hi, Sakura! I've basically been alone for the whole event too... I still can't find anywhere to stay... Everyone seems to know each other so well...

@ mewmew:

That is good to hear. I hope you had fun during college. :D

Same here. I got a new tablet that my boyfriend got me and some cloths. Oh, got new moon blanket, pillow, and a handbag.

I probably never heard of it. D;

@ Skullushka:

You are more welcome to stay here.

There are so many new people. O_O

I have been here for 2 years and I have not been much seen around.

Some people forgot about me.

I got a Sony Boombox, but it's circular, not rectangle, a iHome alarm clock/ipod dock/speaker, vest, two gift cards, two DS games, Victoria's Secret body spray stuff, chocolate covered strawberries, and ornaments.

Ah... I've only been on here since September. I still don't know anyone, and the people I do never seem to be in the same thread as me. It's overwhelming.

@ mewmew:

Some good items you have there. :D

Oh, I also went to dinner at The Melting Pot. :9 It was so delicious.

@ Skullushka:

Sometimes it is nice to meet new people during events.

It happens all the time.

I do not tend to post a lot during regular times.

That seemed way easier to do during the Halloween event... Now I'm lost in conversation or I don't have anything to say. And then, when I flounder, people tend to overlook me and I drown. :c It's hard approaching anyone when they're in a huge group of their friends.

Yea, I know how that feels. Even though I have been here for 2 years, it feels as though I am still not known by many people.

People know you when you have threads that are popular or just known from the start.

It has become a huge community around here. It is easy to not get noticed.

Sakura: That's cool. I love to eat out, but my family doesn't do it much since we can't afford, and also because it probably isn't that good for ya.

Now it is the holiday season, which is the best time of the year.

I hope all is well.

-wanders in and plops down here-
I can't seem to find a place to actually stay and talk. Lets try here.

Hello. :3
How are you?

Hello GangsterGlam and welcome.

Oh, congrats on winning Admin's pick. I recognized your avatar from the colors. :D

I am doing great, now that I had something to eat.

Thank you. :3

That's good. I still need to find something for dinner. Now that I think about it, I'm getting hungry. D:

Hello Gangster!

How was your Christmas?

Hey Mew! (:

It was alright, didn't suck too bad. lol
You?

@ GangsterGlam:

I hope you can find something to eat.

I do not like it when the stomach is growling at you.

It was good. I had a lot of fun, but after the relatives went home at 9:00pm, I went to bed right after. lol.

How are you enjoying the event so far?

@Sakura;

No, having your tummy growling is definetly not fun. :p
Really though, I should find something. If I get too hungry I start feeling sick. Makes it even less fun.

@Mew;

lol That sounds fun.
Besides my imediate family I don't see a lot of relatives.. ever. I went to a Christmas Party this year though and it was fun. And I'm going to the New Years party too. :3

The event is cute. Honestly, I'm a little bored already but that just means I need to get myself more involved I suppose.

I wish I had my relatives over. I have not seen them for quiet some time.

@ GangsterGlam:

I really want to go for some pizza.

I might have to call my friend over, since he did had some left over pizza. XD

I only saw my aunt, cousin, and her husband. That's all.

But I also have my aunt who is going to school here but left on a trip back home to see family, and another cousin, male. That's it for family where I live.

I have other family, which is three aunts, two uncles, five cousins, my mom's cousin (if you could tell me what that would be to me, meaning her relationship to me, that would be great), and like two/three cats. But they all live in either Connecticut or Florida.
