the END OF THE YEAR meme

2011 has been one hell of a year, with plenty of ups and downs, as well as in between moments. Now is a time to tell a person why you liked to have them as a friend, or perhaps more.

How this meme works is:
► comment here with your username
► others will comment back with a reason as to why they liked you as their friend in 2011 as well as a suggestion for the future.
► anonymous is ON while IP logging is OFF
► as always, WANK WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. if it's seen, it will be deleted. additionally, if YOU see it, feel free to let me know, then I'll delete it.

Lastly, spread the good feelings and pimp it!

yanyan or konbini@livejournal

w o w how presumptuous being here i mean who asked for you to be here huh huh

but while you're here i guess i guess i can start on my overflowing rambunctious adoration for yana and everything yana does. i've said it before i'll say it again in my mind yana is super popular and the queen of everything, and it's kinda outrageous when someone doesn't know yana, especially because i reference her a lot so after a while i realized sometimes some people thought i was just making weird sounds out of my mouth but that's cool too. it's their fault for not knowing yana?? actually i have more to say but i'll just post it in another comment in case i get a little busy and i leave this comment open forever f o r e v e r

Yana you are so cute and amazing and hilarious how does someone like you exist. It's a pleasure to talk to you because you make everything so cool and happy and I just want to hug you and never let go I mean

♥!!!

YEAH okay back where was i yes... yana being super nice and, to top it off, super funny. kinda weird right!!!! why does yana get the best of all the worlds i guess it's because yana is like that. but i've always thought yana as an expertise in moe, which she is, but it's more like, she is surprisingly hilarious as well. why am i referring to her in the third person. w/e w/e point still stands!!!!! i mean if i had to reference things it'd be like that thread with taiwan and charles with the paintings, which i refer to a lot, because i laughed... or like any threads with himeko, it's like somehow yana got her spot-on to the way that when you think about it, of course it makes sense yada yada, yana makes these things seem so obvious, but i'd never think about it in a million gazillion years. this all makes sense in my head, if you can't make sense of it elsewhere. i hate to go into the sordid past but i remember one post in particular you did with taiwan in the aphmeme where it was like... that bear dancing in the middle of the meme and i thought it was like the cutest thing ever and the more i looked at you the cooler you became in my eyes

which i guess is why you've become crystallized as the queen of moe for me?? but you will just have to suck it up et all. you have a great sense of humor and you're really cute, but not in the disingenuous sort of way, but like, really, really cute. it's like if cute was an evolution map, and you had to trace it all the way back up to the ancestors, that would be yana. post-scratch?? who knows, who knows, it's just that, it's not the kind of cute that makes you gag or the kind of romantic comedy that makes you roll your eyes. yana has real cuteness, which is something i can't even touch, and it's amazing and marvelous. whenever yana says stuff like too much moe i am just like um no???? perfect amount, i will fight anyone who says otherwise. but the genuine cuteness is always tempered with that sort of humor, that isn't biting or malicious, but aware and subtle, without intruding into the joke or the reader, but a really good kind. the young at heart know what i mean.

but the thing is, yana is so much more than i thought she would be. usually when i put people up on a pedestal, i never ever reach them. ever. i get too intimidated to talk to them and it sucks, but that's apparently how i work. yana isn't like that at all, because she is such a friendly person that she really reaches out to people. it sucks that rp gets everywhere into my yana compliments, but that RPG party list just oozed with yana having such great friends, reaching out to people, pulling them in because she's yana. i mean when yana made a plurk for my grumpfaceness i was kinda more than astonished because it's like, i didn't even want to comment in it because it'd just ruin the pure yana snow. man that's creepy, but it's true. that aside, i just really appreciate having yana in my life, yeah? yeah. ugh i should have put this earlier in the yana is cute and funny paragraph but i like how i don't have to dull my own stupid jokes around her, either, because she displays bountiful maturity and majestic adulthood and that's pretty cool.

that being said, the more i learned about yana, the more appreciative i got about her. because she's not just yana, she's a contributer, and really brave. i've come to a time in my life that even when someone replies to my reserve i grew slightly terrified, but yana gets into games, gets involved with people, talks to them, and is really cool. i know i'm stupidly a yana fangirl when it comes to yana touching anything with translations or scanslations, but that's because yana also has a great aesthetic sense and amazing translation skills. i remember when one time i was trying to ask yana for her nepeta puns and she was like oh scarfle did you want me to translate something for you yana is just that nice she's sharing and giving and she gives her time to great projects that are really fun and great and nice and she still does it even though she's had bad experiences with it, and isn't that fabulous max. it's fabulous max. it's really destiny.

tbh i can't remember which came first, learning about her icons or learning about her posts, but i think it was the icons first. i remember when... idk, probably on my journey to find belarus icons, i kept stumbling across this little comm called pafyuumu and i thought it was really cool, because somehow, all the icons looked good. like the taste of fanart was really good, the cropping was good, the subtle designs were really cute, the colors weren't intrusive, and it was a really nice icon comm. and i remember thinking, yeah, it'd be great if an icon comm like this would make icons that were relevant to my interests. i mean, you do, but back then your comm was just one on my list. but it didn't stay that way, because it was so nice that i started just checking back to the comm, to see if there were any posts, since i usually don't follow comms. it got to the point where i really should have, it would have saved me time, but it was just cool. i remember when you moved icon comms it was a pret thing for me, and whenever you posted, i would make some celebratory remark on someone who didn't even know what i was talking about. lmfao i really should have taken more advantage of your icon request posts and i hope i don't come off as kinda loose-minded about that?? except i am, though knowing yana, yana don't even care. i can appreciate that yeaaaahh.

tbh i always look incredibly stupid in front of yana, anyway. all my tags sound stupid, all my jokes fall flat, and i'm always immensely embarrassed around her. but i always just brighten up when i'm talking to yana because i like her that much, to a really creepy point, but take what you can get i guess?? creepiness aside yeah

the thing is, for the future, i really want yana to be happy. that's super important to me, and i hope i can be supportive of whatever she goes through. i know it's hard for her right now, and there's a lot of stuff going on that isn't my business, but i hope i can give her enough fish and eggs and level up harvest moon style so it could be my business too, because i really like yana, and i want to support her in everything. i think yana is sometimes hard on herself, and i hope one day she gets to be as happy as she deserves, without any stress in her life whatsoever. and it probably sounds really callous of me right now, but things do get better, and look up. it doesn't even come slowly, or maybe it comes so excruciatingly slowly, but someday i hope she'll be able to look up and know that things are better, because she made it with her own hands. i know i probably just sound like a pain right now, but this is what i truly believe and hope, because in my mind, yana is such a great person and such a great friend. no matter what she does or who she decides to become, i will always think that she's strong and brave, and hard-working and funny, cute without annoyance, and just such a wonderful person. this doesn't even capture half of what i see in you, and maybe one day, i will have the words to show you what you really mean to me.

but i guess you can take this in the meanwhile

WOW THAT'S KINDA DISGUSTINGLY LONG
