OriginalRen Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Well, here I am. 24 years of living a life of ups and downs, and I am finally ready to pursue my dream of teaching English in Japan. It's funny really, because it feels like I am saying goodbye to so many things in my life by doing this. While that may be true in some cases, it's sad to think of moving on that way. Most people tell me that this is a new beginning and something to look forward to, and I agree with them; I wouldn't be standing here today were it not for so many friends and family supporting me along the way. It's interesting actually because my major in college had nothing to do with Japanese language or the culture of Asia. I was a French and Italian double major, and to this day my parents still question why Japan is something I want to end up doing. Honestly, I can say part of the reason is because of the awesome people I met on this website. Now before you read on, let me reiterate the fact that I chose this path in my life for many reasons, but this website and its many unique personalities are what drove me to continue down this path. The family aura emanating from this website is both heart warming and inspiring at the same time, and I know that no matter what anyone says, that feeling will always remain with me where ever life may lead. One of the greatest things about doing the podcast is getting to know all of the unique individuals from this site, and it always puts a smile on my face when I hear people comment on how friendly all of these people are; it really is something special. That being said, this message is not a reflection on my time spent on this website or a means to communicate how awesome it is, but rather this message is a thank you to every single person I have had the pleasure to meet on Fuwanovel. Thank you everyone. Thank you for being who you are and what you do. To all the people I have had the pleasure of working with, thank you. To all the members I have made friends with outside of this website, thank you. To all the upcoming people about to create a great legacy for a website that means so much to them, thank you. Thank you Fuwanovel, I cannot say it enough. To every single person I have had the pleasure of being a friend with from this site, I love you. You are all fantastic individuals (no matter how much you troll sometimes ) and deserve to be praised for it. You have all given me a chance to do something I enjoy doing for no monetary value whatsoever. You have given me what I love most about doing what I do for this website, and that is the joy of others. Sure, it may sound stupid, but in essence it's the truth. I love making other people happy and I love seeing people excited, because it really does put a smile on my face. Please, I ask you to continue being who you are and to continue being a family. Each one of you is an amazing person, and I cannot stress that enough. So for that reason, I say a final thank you, and hope to see all of you sometime in the future and in Japan. Who knows, hit me up sometime when you are around there and we can grab a bite to eat! Thank you Fuwanovel, for everything.

Mr Poltroon Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 You called me an amazing person. You really have to be an amazing person in order to call me that. Or just plain idiotic. But I am obliged to thank you, too, mostly for courtesy, but with some truth to those words as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Boss Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 No, thank you for all you do. Your videos are really good and I am glad to have found this site to see them. What happend to youtube though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nohman Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Looks like the above poster beat me to it, but it does indeed go two ways: thank you as well, Ren. You do a lot to enrich the site and Fuwanovel is better off as a community to call you a member. I hope you'll have a safe and rewarding experience in Japan and I'm looking forward to your video blogs you plan on doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solidbatman Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 You really really made it sound like you were dying or something. I was close to starting a SaveRun petition but that'd be pointless now. Good luck in Japan! Can't wait to crash at your place for a while so I can marry my waifu legally!
