heyy,
i really like this topic coz it gives us sometime to reflect back on our start w/ this section. A&S has always been very special to me, it was the 2nd section on IF that i visited, and at the start it was something just random, there weren't that many shops here, in fact not even khushi's shop. i came here and found these amazing collection of HP avatars/signatures and choried em alll coz they were for everyone!! i still have those w/ me. 😳
then i stopped coming and after sometime i kept seeing khushi's signature and tina22's signatures and came here to see that they had shops! i never knew what shops were, so it was kinda new for me to request something online and get it for free!! and i started right off w/ 3 siggi requests😆 Khushi and Tina were both kind enough to make them for me. Those siggi's are really special to me, especially the one Khushi made, coz i started to know her then..
Our A&S family has grown, to such a huge family, that it has its own seperate rooms...you know? i wish it would go back to the smaller family, but i guess i grew a little distant with the growing family...somehow the attitudes, the crowd, the people seem so extremely different to me than bfore...hopefully i will know more of my family members soon and my perception will change. one thing that has remained consistant throughout, are some of my few close friends...they are always there for me and they know who they are. most of them have left IF, but I still owe IF and A&S for meeting them...
Memorable moments? there are lots and lots of those...khushi's shop was the best one's...even though IF was really slow at that time i would wait for 10 mins for a page to upload, but i would wait coz i had to post there!! it was part of my life then....it still is. loads of parties, loads of mastii, loads of old friends,...all my memories are embedded in them. :)
Thanks for this topic Amina. I enjoyed reflecting on the past, lets hope the future is equally good.
love always,
khair
ps-sorry for the long ishtory...just can't stop when it comes to this section....
