| Hello everyone, and welcome to my little chat thread! I've never really hosted a chat-only thread before, so I hope this goes well.
The Lotus Festival is very special to me, as it's the 1 year anniversary of when I joined Midorea. I'm very happy to still be here with all of you, even though I've been inactive lately. Even though I haven't been saying much, I find myself still coming here day after day to read what all of you are talking about. I'd like to thank each and every one of you for making Midorea the wonderful place it is. A-and thank you Cat for putting up with me and letting me do the NPC art for this site, no matter how long I take |||OTL It means a lot to me. I love you guys!
To celebrate, I'll be giving away freebie sketches! First on page 5, then every 10 pages after that starting at 10 (so 5, 10, 20, etc). If things are going slow, I'll do every five pages.
As far as the chat goes, any topic is fine - rant away!
I guess I should start with something though, huh.... Oh, I know! Did anyone get to go to a cherry blossom festival this past month? I live near DC where they have a huge festival, but a storm wiped out most of the flowers and I ended up not going. ^^; I have some really lovely pictures from a couple of years ago, but it just hasn't been as beautiful since.
And did anyone do anything for May Day? The art museum here just had a huge remodel so some friends and I went to its reopening event. The trip was cut short, but what we saw was really great. I've never gotten to do anything like a may pole, but I know some people do.

| In England we dont do much, I suppose Morris dancers and the like still do the Maypoles, but to be honest I just worked all day then came home and did a spring clean out of my room and then played Warcraft :P
It's a shame I'd love to visit a petal viewing at some point.

It must be fun to have a festival.

i REALLY wish i had been in Japan... not stuck here in rainy old Britain. The Cherry blossom trees are just so beautiful... but on the bright side, my mum says we can plant one in our back garden! -^^- im excited for that.

| Yeah, it's being mean to the trees.
I also can't reach the tree in the first place because I'm too small.
