Goodbye-New Owner


Well.. I guess you can tell by the title.
I'm quitting both AJ and AJ blogging.

Warning: This post contains a large amount of cheese, proceed with caution. especially if you are lactose intolerant


I honestly never thought this day would come.. I always said I'd always play AJ, I'd always do AJ blogging but.. it looks like I was wrong.

I always thought that someday, I'd be able to make my blog, me and Ja dreamed we'd call it "The Animal Jam Adventure" but alas, it was not to be so.

I've been playing AJ sense 2013, that's seven years. And wow.. does that seem like a lot when I think about it..

I've met so many amazing people through AJ and blogging, so many people have inspired me, in fact without this I don't think I would have started drawing as much as I do.
So many bloggers have quit, so many losing interest and just getting older.
For me its basically lack of interest, and its unfair to you guys me filling up a space on this blog.

 I do and don't want to do this. I hate to leave this amazing community, but I just have no interest in Animal Jam anymore.
I'll probably log on every once and a while, idk, (Most likely update days)  I'm trying to keep a straight face with a warm smile, but tears are starting to fall.
I have so many fond memories, I'll miss it so much. It's just not fun anymore, its almost stressful to post. I'll probably check blogs every once in a while, even just out of habit.
Its somewhat ironic that I'm the one quitting now, after all my time of saying "We need to revive the bloggers!" orr "We need a Blogger Plaque!" and stuff like that. (Although I'm still not giving up on that. *glares at AJHQ*)
Animal Jam for me, just isn't exciting for me, I use to get super excited about updates and new animals, but now I'm just like, "Whatever." even when Balloosh came out.
I've just lost interest, everybody does eventually, I really admire everyone who has played sense beta and still loves it.


I'll be just as active as I've always been on Hangouts, and probably contact everyone when I'm able to make a blog of my own.

Animal Jam has truly changed my life, and I have so many thank you's..

Graciepopstar91: You are the one who introduced me to the blogging community.

Karalee: You were my first glimpse of an artist, did you know that? I admired (and still do!) your art skills, you have such talent, you were such a good friend, and you really inspired me.

Nafaria9: I don't know if you're reading this as you quit AJ blogging as well, but you were the first AJ blog I ever read, I looked up AJ toys and found yours about the new AJ toys. (Well they were unreleased then) I really admired how you could post every day.

You're the truest of friends <3
