My Current Relationship with Stardoll.

Hello loves.
So for those who still read this lovely little blog, I apologize for the absence. I think the last time I posted was well over six months ago and...I'm sorry for that.
But that very cause is the reason why I'm here today. A little rant/lengthy ramble about how I currently feel about Stardoll. Feel free to disregard this post and continue to read other posts, but this one may explain a lot.

As of today, October 14th, 2013, I am thirteen years of age. I started this blog around three years ago, when I was simply just over ten. My whole experience with Stardoll had begun and I was simply fascinated and intrigued by it all. Dress up dolls and clubs and wow so much fun for a little ten year old like I was three years ago. This little high really lasted for a while. I felt the same way about it much as I entered the age of eleven. I was Royalty within less than a year, spent a shit load of money on this site, posted nearly every day on this here blog, made Stardoll Makeup Tutorials, I was determined to become something here. 
My thoughts and feelings during these time, up until mid last year anyway, have been well documented on this blog. It's self explanatory really.
However the determination of yesterdays past has long faded. And that's partially due to me growing up, of course I should've known that I couldn't be here forever. That'd be impossible. But Stardoll has changed too, rather drastically since I first joined - on that cloudy March day in 2010. Since then over 200,000,000 more members have joined (how many of them are real accounts is behind me), the layout has changed, and more features and contests have been introduced. Rather quickly, if I may add. I'm still on Stardoll of course. Just not doing what I used to. I've ventured into the world of roleplaying and own a little 600+ member club inwhich I've met some very wonderful friends in. My writing has improved significantly since my days here, and I'm quite happy with it all. I'm not departing from the site soon, by any means. I've spent too much money and time and effort on everything to give it away all so quickly. Like I said I have my club and such. This blog won't be going away either, but I wouldn't be expecting any new posts unless I hop on here one night and rant. Because in all honesty, it'd be impossible for me to keep it running regularly like I did back in 2011. I've been out of the main loop for well over a year, my Royalty membership expired well back in December, and like I mentioned it's not my place on this site anymore really. While most of the blogs I read have now faded into obscurity seemingly, there are still a lot of good Stardoll blogs around here to keep you up to date on things. I think USD is still running, I'm not sure what else to recommend really uh...
Anyway. I'm sorry that I couldn't keep going here. I'm sorry if I let anyone down, and I'm sorry if your disappointed. In a sense, I'm disappointed too. But nothing's perfect and we all have to move on.
If you are just joining the little Times family here then welcome to the blog. My name is Sara, this blog contains a lot of...stuff. Little pointless rambles about nothing. I hope you enjoy it. I enjoyed it too. It's something that I will always remember and cherish - which is why I'm not deleting the blog or anything. I can't. That just wouldn't be right.
If y'all want to keep in touch with me just pop me a message on Polyvore. You can find me right here. If you want Tumblr, Twitter, etc links - just ask. I'd be happy to give them to you.
- Sara
