A MASSIVE Thank You from PinkBoden!
By PinkBoden (Age 14)
I got this article from a wonderful girl from twitter called RoyallyKate, I've changed the article to a First News suitable format and posted it on here because I think it really sums First News up! The original article (RoyallyKate's) brought tears to my eyes :') because it was so true and it still is about First Newsians... anyway... thank you :)...
You know.. I don’t think all of you realize how amazing you are. I know we all say it to be generous, but you all are truly amazing. It’s to the point to where I’d do almost anything to make you all happy - you all deserve it. You guys have given me so much strength over the course of this past year, and I honestly can’t thank you enough. I’ve never met so many strong and uplifting nice people. Your parents did an amazing job with you all, and you really need to thank them for instilling such amazing and valued qualities in you, that make you “YOUNIQUE”.
I’d be a very different peson without the support of you all, and the fact that you could all call me your 'friend' and perhaps go to me in some way for inspiration, guidance, or strength makes my life. It truly does. People ask me - “Why do you talk to people on the Internet? How can you be friends with people you don’t know?” The thing is, I’ve gotten to know you, and now I know you all to be my friends. Scratch that, not even my friends, but my family.
Point is, I just wanted to remind you all of how much I love you and how grateful I am for you. Even though I may have had petty arguments with you (Redhorse and Kicky), deep down in my heart, I have all the respect in the world for you all- and I’d do whatever I can for you. I’m so blessed to have you all in my life. You're honestly some of the best people on the planet and I'll never forget the friends I've made on here.
I hate that people are so quick to judge people, without even beginning to know them. I found the following quote on twitter as well:
“Those horrible people don’t know you at all. They have no idea what they are saying, they’re not true. They can’t possibly be. They don’t know you.They know your name and face. They knows as much of you as you choose to show. They don’t know the you that helps people because she cares, they don’t know the you who works hard at school because she’s smart. They know a face and a name.”
And what she said was very true. If any of you that are reading this don’t like me, please just get to know me for 2 seconds, and I promise you won’t regret it. I’m not a mean person at all, and I’d like to think I’m one of the nicest - because honestly I’d give the world for you all. So, please get to know me, before you send hate.
I've met so many nice people on First News and twitter all of which I've never ever met but feel as though you are my best friends:
Nic, in the summer when you wrote the article with the picture of you, Ben, Cheska and Funda on, it honestly made my day! I'd had an awful day and that actually made me cry that no matter how horrible some people in the world can be, there are always absolutely lovely people too.
The only other one of my friends on here that I'm going to mention is Minxymoo because she is absolutely one of the nicest people in the world and she is my best friend on here and is just generally wonderful.
I don't understand how people can say "you can't make friends over the internet" because you can and First News has proved that. I honestly believe that you are all my friends are are such lovely people.
I love you all so much, and I hope you know that I’m always here for you. Okay?
Just remember... I'm a good egg. Ocassionally scrambled. So if you ever need anything... :)

Aaaw ... that's so sweet. Those who say you can't have friends on the internet are wrong! What would be the point of all these social sites if you couldn't make new friends? P.S. Can I be your friend?? x3

Yeah, sure IndigoWolf! :)

Got tears in my eyes! That is sooo true, thanks for posting it here! It's good that arguments don't make us break up, everyone argues, and that's what makes us all individual. Can I just write a note to Honeybun00 I think this should be the best article in your next awards!

Aaaw... so sweet! I think this is a brill article and everyone should read it because it is totally true that people on the internet CAN be your friends because you can never really get annoyed with them. If you think about it it is just like talking or sending a letter but using a computer to pass on the message. P.S I hope I'm your friend! :)

Aw, Pinkboden, this is amazing.♥ That's so, so true! :3 I agree with the whole internet friends thing. You may never meet them in real life, but so what? You guys help me sometimes MORE than my friends outside of the internet! :) I love everyone on Firstnews too. You're all so supportive and amazing. Thank you for posting this! ♥ :)
