Hey everyone (might as well make this post sound like the start of a thread, huh?)
I'm not able to participate as much as usual right now, but I just wanted to say, Roh, I loved the flow chart!!! It made me laugh out loud, and helped me come to the following conclusions:
1. I don't post enough about the weather--or global warming.
2. I have yet to make any threads about skydiving.
3. Someone has an obsession with penguins (and I don't think it's me.
)
I seriously love and appreciate so many people here for so many reasons. CC has been a very special place for me because all my life, I've always been told that I "think too much" (I think what they actually mean is that I don't think enough like them) and one of the many blessings I've found here... are other people who seem to think the same way. Thank you so much for the people who are willing to read my thoughts and (what I treasure most) write your own thoughts in return.
I love joking back and forth with people and hope I don't overstep my lines (and if I do with anyone, I hope they'll PM me personally and let me know.) I know my threads and posts are often the brunt of a slew of jokes and a lot of them are pretty funny!! I really hope to be someone who doesn't take myself too seriously and can laugh right along.
Something I've struggled with though is that when my feelings do get hurt (I try not to let it be too often, but I'm human, too), I'm not sure how to tell the person(s) involved. This is NOT directed at you, Roh, at all. You're always tons of fun to joke with here on the forum. But every now and then, a comment might make me question myself.
I try very hard to be easy going. I think because of this, sometimes someone might say something rather harsh to me without realizing it, and they might even have good intentions behind it. Truthfully, I have to admit I usually don't pay attention to serious criticism unless it's coming from someone with whom I've shared my toughest times.
I want to thank everyone here for their extremely kind and generous words. I love you all back very, very much and hope that God will allow as many of us as possible (and several others out there) to meet with each other in person!!!
How else will I ever be able to get Melita that snocone, or prove to Cinder that a good part of my mind will NEVER grow up!!

Roh, thank you so much for thinking of me--it was such an uplifting thing to read during a really hectic time!!! Hope to see you all soon. XOXOXO, Seoul.
