Chapter 8: A Nostalgic Trip Down Memory Lane


Hey guys!


Starlight here ;) as if you didn't know that haha.
It's been so long since I've sent anything and I really apologize. I've joined a school (finally) and it's LOADS of fun. How come no one ever told me how it was *pouts*? I thought we didn't keep secrets from each other!
I love you all so, so much and honestly, I don't know where I would have been in my boring life if not for you guys. You guys have literally shaped me and made me who I am today. Thanks so much for supporting me throughout everything! ILYSM <3<3

Tnxoxo,
Starlight24


I sighed and reread the message again before posting it, hoping there were no typos once I did. The problem with Onlinathon was that there was no delete option in your posts, which really sucked.


Just for old time's sake, I decided to scroll all the way to the bottom and see what neurotic things I had put on my wall when I first joined. Time to take a nostalgic trip down memory lane!


So after what felt like eternity, there it was, and I couldn't help but laugh out loud at my first ever post on Onlinathon.


HEY LIGHTERS (sorry I'm kinda high)!!!


Nice to meet you all, I've been craving new friends for a while. Hopefully you'll all like me as much as I like you and we can be one big, happy online family haha. I'm positive, bubbly and cheerful. I like sports and the fine arts like singing. I like drama too, but that's mainly because I'm a HUGE drama queen (or that's what my mom told me!). I hope we'll all be close and I do follow backs so please follow me and I'm also a despo like that LOL.


Tnxoxo, Starlight24


This was so embarrassing. I wish there was a delete button. Happy, online family? Who says that!?


I smiled and rolled through my posts. It was a pretty bunch and cluster of everything, kind of like a trail mix of articles and relatable quotes.


The inspirational quotes:


Hey y'all ;)


I wanted to tell you that everyone is special and perfect in their own way. I've seen some of your posts about giving up, and I wanted to tell every single one of you that I love you. Sometimes, we're too harsh on ourselves. Honestly, though, it is our differences and imperfections that tells us apart. Like a blotch of abstract art to refine you, almost an improvement. Remember John Legend, who told us to love our perfect imperfections. So before you decide to cut the strings of your individual balloons because you think you're useless, remember that someone out there wants to keep you from flying away.


Remember that I need you to stay with me.


Tnxoxo

Or the innovative:


Hi!


I was wondering: What if the sky is just a rolling expanse of stars that protects us from the world outside? What if it is entrapping us in our own little place, where we are oblivious to the land outside? What if extraterrestrial life exists and the sky is actually a shield that protects us from any dangers? Just a thought to mull over, of course. Not that scientifically proven facts haven't contradicted this bizarre theory, but it was just a random question.


Tnxoxo,

Or the just plain random:


Guys,


Guess what. I'M NOT HUMAN HAHAHAHA I'M SECRETLY AN ALIEN AND I'VE MADE THIS ACCOUNT TO LEARN ALL OF YOUR HUMAN SECRETS SO I CAN TELL MY FELLOW ALIENS SO WE CAN INVADE OUR PLANET! Soon, little insignificant humans, you will be all mine! All mine!


*Insert evil cackling in the background*I will squish you all like bugs. I promise...


Tnxoxo,

Or the scientific:


Hey to all the nerds out there (I need you),


I had a question. Scientists say the universe is constantly expanding, but what I don't understand is this: What is the universe expanding into? What is that emptiness that stretches beyond the universe that the universe cleaves into to grow? Will that expanse ever end, or is it a stretch of infinity? What will happen if the universe hits the last bit of what it can grow to? Will the universe start to shrink, or will it burst like a balloon causing the anticlimax of the big bang?


Sorry to bombard you all with questions like that; I hope you don't mind!


Tnxoxo,

I smiled at that one. I'd never really gotten the answer to that question, though my followers had tried their best to reply with the most scientific theory that they could muster.


Starlight24 was always there for everyone whenever they needed help, or whenever they felt like they were going to give up. Now however, when I've lied and am confused about everyone and everything in life in general, why was there no one for me to lean on?



A/N:


That was a short chapter, because some of my readers were complaining that they didn't know anything about Starlight24 and why she was so loved and why everyone was so obsessed with her. I'll be giving you more snippets of her posts in the following chapters, but this was more of a flashback-kind-of-thing. 


Hope you liked it and didn't find it too boring (which is why I didn't elongate much)!!


Please Comment/Vote/Follow/All of the Above. Please vote, because it means a lot to me :)


BTW: 1) Do you like Starlight24? 2) How do you like my new publishing spree? xDxD


Also, there's a pic of Marie on the right :)


Teaser: Love is complicated, but crushes are worse (because they leave you more confused).


Best comment gets a dedication! (As usual do I even need to write it!?)

Love you all,
