To my loving supporters both in person and online. Thank you so much for supporting me and rooting for me to continue. I was really brought to tears when a dearest friend of mine

had surprised me with a message on Skype last night.

"...I saw you got 3rd place in the contest I'm so happy for you askdnkakfls..."

I thought that she meant that I was ranking in #3 on the webtoons Challenge League's page. I was just on that website 5 minutes before cookie messaged me. I thought, "Oh, my rating went up??" So I went to the Webtoon Challenge League's site again to check. And that's when it hit me... In a big banner across the webtoon's site I saw that they had announced the winners. I felt my heart jump up into my throat as I clicked. "By 3rd place she didn't mean....." I clicked it, and this is what I saw:

Here is the legitimate link: www.webtoons.com/notice/detail…

Okay, so I'm going to admit--I did shed a few tears. Not only because I was chosen from all the amazing entries, but because I accomplished my goal. It just felt like a whole rush. I succeeded at something. I proved something of myself. I worked myself hard for this. Now I do admit that there was a time that I was in doubt. I mean, every artist will experience this--and I am human too. I was hurt really bad. Regardless I told myself to focus because this is about me and about the people who are looking forward to what I have and for what I am, don't distract myself with anything else. I don't think this would have been possible if I didn't have such wonderful people supporting me on this. Reading all your encouraging and kind comments during that horrible time really helped lift my spirit. I am so blessed and grateful. I sincerely thank you.

And Taylor Swift... for helping me Shake it off xD

I'm not sure if this is overreacting--but I am beyond ecstatic. I mean the last time I ever won anything legitimate was... back in 4th grade when my teacher really liked my poem that she hung it in the hallway.

Oh yes. I am not mistaking this beginning as the end. I'm going to continue with updating the webcomic and yes, I am still going to be adding OCs in the background as stated from the previous journals. ^^ /

Last night I fell asleep smiling and just overwhelmed with joy.
