  • 1,000th Post on Xanga

    Well, here it is. 1,000 posts by crazy2love, or Crystal. It’s taken 6 years, 5 months, and 26 days to get to this point.

    There are so many things that I love about Xanga, and one of them is how supportive people are around here. We have our bad eggs and assholes, sure, but for the most part, the people here are amazing. Most of us are open-minded individuals from all walks of life. We get into arguments sometimes, and we have our share of drama, no doubt about that. One of the things I love most is that people tell me how much they love reading what I write, even when it seems boring and lame to me. I feel so loved =]

    I have always avoided making a list of my favorite xangans, because I always feared people would get upset that I missed them. This time though, I have put together a list. If you’ll notice, it’s a bit longer than other lists you’ve seen….and I love all my xanga friends, so don’t feel left out if you’re not on it =] So, in no particular order…..

    roadlesstaken- What’s not to like about him? He’s a very nice guy, and he’s cute too.
    Queen_of_You188- She is so awesome! She’s so sweet and recs everything she likes =]

    breaking_expectations- She’s a very intelligent young lady, and her posts are always worth reading!
    dikdoktor- He’s an awesome guy with an amazing spirit. He doesn’t give up on his struggles, no matter how pissed off he gets.

    Those are just some of my favorite people around here!

    I’ve written a lot of my thoughts and feelings on my journey on Xanga. I’ve looked through some of my posts from the last few months and pulled out some of my favorites, so you can learn a little bit more about me!

    This Is Me (With Photos :) - Here you can read a little bit about me and who I am as a person, and see some of the different colors my hair has been!
    She’s Just Another Sad Story- You can read a little bit about my relationship with my mother here. It’s quite sad.
    Love Songs- A little poem I wrote.
    My Fucking Hand- A little fiction story I wrote.
    So Yeah, Stick THAT in Your Vagina Hole!- A post on dildos. I think it’s quite entertaining =]
    Because That’s All We Fucking Know [157]- A post on broken people.
    Just Once, Dan- A post in which I attempted to overthrow Dan in Top Blogs. I would have been successful, if it weren’t for a Xanga glitch that kept his post longer than it should have, which Dan conceded in a message. The point is moot now because he’s not always number one with the new front page, but it was still entertaining.
    Limos and $45 Steak- A post in which I wrote about dinner with my dad and sister. I only put it in here because BigShow still brings it up ;)
    Rules of Xanga- A rant. Thankfully, I haven’t seen any posts on “Xanga Rules” lately!
    Rough Sex- A post on rough sex. Umm, yes please =]
    A Love Letter- Because it’s current and I love it and him. No, I never gave it to him.
    What I’ve Learned- A little bit more about me and my life.
