#2014 list

I almost forgot to do this whoops...

Looking back on 2014, I met a ton of amazing people, especially here on tumblr. Next to 2009, 2014 has been one of the worst years of my life thus far, but all of you lovely people on this list made it so much more bearable. If it wasn't for all of ya'll, I'm not sure if I could have made it through this year. 

I'll split the list up into 2 parts:      

Part 1: The "Inner circle" aka the best of the best

Here are what I call "Mira's fave people of 2014". This list consists of some of my most trusty mutuals, many of whom have bothered to deal with my anxious/depressed ramblings and annoying clingy-ness. These peeps are the best of the best, and I have no idea what I would do without them and I may or may not be totally envious of their amazingness

qu33rdo Emily is like, the best. I've known her since 3rd grade, she lives in my neighborhood and she's practically my little sister. She was there through some of the shittiest points of my life, and I truly owe her for that. She probably knows more about me better anyone.

clarityzero K is just one big ball of sugar and sunshine and rainbows. She's one of my best irl friends EVER. I've only been close to her for barely 3 years, but damn it feels like I've known her forever! She's so adorable, pretty, and downright awesome. Though don't be fooled, if you steal her chocolate she will murder you in your sleep. Love ya K <3

m7angela I'm pretty sure my first conversation with Marta was along the lines of "YOOOO You can be my Polish friend and I will be ur Texas friend, kay?" which is probably the weirdest way to start a friendship but as we all know human interaction is my weak point and that was an early attempt of me trying to be straightforward XD. Anyway she's absolutely amazing and like 10000000% perfection, have you seen her art?? Also she's the edwin queen of the fma fandom. No competition.

metalbendingqueen Wow it feels like it's been forever since I've talked to Nida. She's like the sweetest person ever to exist on the planet. She really made me feel really welcome in the fma fandom. Really though, she's like the child of happiness and sunshine.

cummies9001 Riley is so sweet to me even though I really don't deserve it. Riley's kindness has gotten me through a lot, guurrrl you're fabulous.

mercuryblack-snackpack Hanna is the definition of hella rad. Back in the much earlier days of my blog, she was one of my followers that really stood out to me, and she's always been so supportive. Thank you bae :)

queenwinry My absolutely awesome URL twin! She's so awesome and sweet. From her fanfics to her gifsets, EVERYTHING she does is perfection!

Part 2: The lovelies

This list is a combination of both mutuals and non-mutuals who really stood out to me this year. Some people on this list I've only spoken to a few times, but I'd really like to get to know them better this year. Others, I talk to pretty often but would love to become closer to! Everyone on this list is so amazing I can't comprehend it....

2015 Goals for gaming: Get into newer games. This is highly dependent on moneys, so unless earnings pick up significantly, I receive some donations from some generous supporters, or get some advertising/sponsorship deals, I'm not sure that I see this happening in the next year... Continue making a conscious effort to play games featuring non-white male characters.
