Thanks for tagging me! March hasn't been the absolute best for me...

So... Missy was my friend's aunts horse that she was selling and my mom said if I save my money and pay for her myself then I could buy her. And I did! I have had her for only two years and this week my mom told me that someone was coming over to see Missy and I was confused so I asked her why and she said that she is selling Missy.... That's not really the worst part though...


(Trigger warning - sexual assault )

When I was 7 I was sexually assaulted and kept it a secret for 3 years. I found out yesterday that he has one more year for my case but they found out her did it to at least one other person therefore, he has three more years after that. For another hearing, I need to write a letter for them to read out loud to the whole court so I don't have to be there personally. I don't really know how I feel about it.... Stressed? Absolutely... Scared? A little bit... Sad? Maybe. Concerned? Yeah. I'm definitely scared of what everyone is going to say or think about my letter. What is he going to say or think mainly...

I also don't really know what to write either... Should I be rude about it? Should it be super formal? Should I bring up the other case he is guilty of? I think it's mainly stressed that i'm feeling?


Anyways... Thats how my March this year has been? Hope yours has been better!

Hi everyone, for those who don’t know me, I’m burningRain127. Nice to meet you! I’m in tenth grade, taking college credit classes. I’m not doing very well this week; I’ve had a lot going on, and I feel very behind in getting to all of it. It’s hard to even find motivation to try, honestly. I hope y’all are having a good week. Take care!

Hi everyone. For those of you that don’t know me, I’m burningRain127. Nice to meet you! I’m in tenth grade, taking college credit classes. This week was pretty difficult for me; I had a lot going on in school and my personal life, and I feel like I’m falling behind. It’s getting harder for me to even try to find the motivation to do it all. I hope you all are doing well! Thanks @tommy for inviting me here.

Thankyou so much for the welcome again 💛

My week went really great, I had some hardships but I worked through them.

My primary goal for march is to get through my exams. For me exams are stressful and fun at the same time. It’s a new feeling!

My favourite kind of chocolate is dark chocolate 😁

Thankyou again for the welcome!

Hi there! I'm glad for this check-up ^3^

How was your week?

My week is going well. mostly dealing with family stress and job-hunting stress.

What is your goal for March?

My goal for March is to get a part-time job so I can focus on what I want to do full-time. something on being a freelance artist/writer seems my cup of tea but idk how to support that

What's your favorite kind of chocolate?

White chocolate ^3^

Hi 🤍

♥️ How was your week?

Not good. My grandpa passed away, and he was one of very few members in my biological family that was always kind to me. This is the first death I’ve experienced of someone I was really close to.

♥️ What is your goal for March?

Just to take care of myself, really. And to hopefully do well in my upcoming new job.

♥️ What’s your favorite kind of chocolate?

Milk chocolate with hazelnut. :)

Thanks for the check-in; I appreciate you ♥️

My week was very interesting and chaotic, yet still really fun!

How is that controversialllllllllllll tommyyyyy 😂😂😂 what kind do you like? milk? i mean I thought white chocolate might be more controversial because that's not technically chocolate! peppermint is also good!
