A little reintroduction
Former Member
Posts: 203 Trailblazer
Some of you may remember me, but it's been more than two years since I was last active, so I think it might be for the best that I reintroduce myself.
I'm Emma, but I go by the screen name LabraBell. Either is fine with me!
I'm twenty now. From what I can tell from my old bio, I was seventeen when I left here. So, yeah. Maybe three years rather than two.
I was, at the time, a public services student. I planned on becoming a police officer then later a paramedic. As it happens, neither career would be the one I settled on, because I decided to go into digital art. It's only really a hobby at the moment, and I'll soon be looking for my first job to fill the gap while I get good enough at art that I can turn it into a career.
So, art is one hobby. Besides that I mostly just play games nowadays, I'm working on a more healthy lifestyle, but you know. Change takes time. I'm hoping to incorporate visits to the gym and bike rides into that lifestyle soon though.
I used to write fanfiction and poetry. The poetry died out as I mostly used it as a vent for my mental health. The fanfiction... well, I'm still calling myself a writer in that sense, I just have to get off my ass and actually get some more writing done!
I'm hoping to be around these forums on a regular basis again. I left at the time for a few reasons, but I have to admit that I did regret it a bit. Now that I'm more emotionally stable (most of the time) I'm hoping that I can play a more supportive role in the community that kept me fighting when it felt like I had nothing left to give
