Life is too short to waste. Time is precious and memories fade faster than you think. In order to remember something, it has to be good or bad. Most of the things you remember are embarrassing, sad or just plain miserable!
I'm not sure if I'll remember Whyville when I quit and that's because most of my time was not as pleasant as it could have been. I think that's because I can't remember anything good. Maybe all the good times are mixed with the bad. Making new friends was always nice, but seeing people made fun of or called names because of a computer animated face pretty much ruins the whole experience. Wasn't Whyville made for us to learn and meet people from different parts of the world!? And to learn how to get along with these people was an even better experience!
When you leave Whyville and move on with your life... I hope you at least remember the GOOD times you had in Whyville and remember my words of advice, to you and all the others out there in Whyville! Pay attention and learn! Or otherwise you have no real reason to be here... and it's always better to be doing something for a reason, otherwise there's really no point to life!
Life is a live and learn kinda thing. You go to school and learn and then go home and learn! These things are two different kinds of learning. In school, you have books to read from, you have notes to take and tests and a whole bunch of other things. At home, your parents teach you how to cook or how to feed your baby brother. Sometimes at home you learn on your own, too.
There's no pressure at home to have to keep up with the other kids or to even have to pay attention... although maybe that depends on your family. Home is a more hands-on learning experience. And for me, it's more effective than at school.
These are my personal opinions and thoughts. If you agree with them, That's Great! If you don't, That's Great, Too! Life is full of problems where you either disagree or agree, and learning to deal with these problems is one of the greatest experiences in life!!!
So, my message to you is to live a little and have FUN! You only get to live once, and I don't know about you, but I wouldn't have it any other way!
