[yangjeongin]

!!! YANGJEONGIN IS ONE YEAR OLD !!!

yes yes, very exciting!! honestly, it feels like we’ve been here for years, but simultaneously i’m like what??? it’s already been a year?? crazy. i’m not sure i expected to stick around this long or be as active on stayblr as we’ve been, but i’m glad we have 💕 on top of this, we’re reaching a follower milestone too, so i’m going to go all out with this fasten your seatbelts

i’m usually a really casual stan, and i’m also multi af, so following one group so closely is an entirely new experience to me despite being into kpop since 2012. in running a blog dedicated to one group...i have to keep up! and that in itself has been really fun. i think i have a love for skz that’s different than any group i’ve ever stanned, so i’m thankful to this blog for that much alone. 

on top of that, i’ve really enjoyed meeting and talking to everyone on stayblr that i have, seeing y’all’s amazing content, and i appreciate the support you all have given us in the past year so much. i think i’ve improved a lot as a content creator in the past year, and i think if i just stayed on my main blog, that wouldn’t be as much of the case. everyone’s encouragement and creativity has made being yangjeongin super fun for me, and (usually) keeps me motivated to keep making stuff!! i don’t think i can say thank you enough. so many of you have been so kind to us and i’m really so grateful.

i could probably say so much, but one of the most important things to do is credit @minhos, because without their influence (see: dragging us kicking and screaming to make a skz sideblog) yangjeongin wouldn’t exist at all. we would not be yangjeongin because we even got this url from them!! and tbh we may not even be into skz at all without haru. this is the only time i will say this but thank u haru, every other time i’m going to say you ruined my life even though that’s a lie. 

i may joke about stayblr ruining my life too but the truth is i think i needed this blog in my life in the past year and that despite feeling INSANE sometimes, i think i would be worse off today if yangjeongin didn’t exist. i’m actually getting emotional help so just. thanks for making this such a good experience for me, and for helping me to have so much fun.

this is already a lot but i (unfortunately) have even more to say. i don’t have the time or energy to write a message for EVERYONE, and i feel like they would just get redundant eventually, so i’m going to write a general thank you to All of my stayblr mutuals for making the past year so great for me, and some individual shoutouts to some of you that i actually have something unique to say about 👁️ honestly y’all have Made my experience on stayblr, which in the past year, has been a really good one! i’m so grateful for everything, and i appreciate you all so much. really looking forward to the next year with y’all, seeing what you make, and hopefully befriending more of you, too. and ofc, making even more mutuals. 

i know some people may not read beyond this, so thank you again for the past year. i’m looking forward to seeing how long yangjeongin goes 😎 you may also see some of our old sets make a return today as part of the celebration. we’ll see.

@1zone: me @ ing you on this account is so funny to me for literally no reason at all and so is the fact that i’m putting these in alphabetical order and you are Rightfully first. for some reason i’m actually super emotional trying to type this up which is weird but uhhh thank you for being yangjeongin with me. even if there are times that you’re quiet on the blog knowing that i’m not by myself in this is idk?? comforting?? to me. this blog would not exist without you either and i hope you never doubt how important you are 😠running this blog w you has been so fun for me and i know i wouldn’t have had nearly as much fun without u so tysm. thank u also for keeping the blog alive on the days that i am dead. i feel like there’s more i have to say but i’m forgetting it now asdsddgdsg so if u see this in drafts make sure to read this part again once it’s posted just in case!! i love u lots mawy 💓 @chrisbangs: miss ganguli...i don’t even know where to start omfg but at the same time i feel like this is almost unnecessary bc u already know everything i could say. but!! you can never hear it too many times. you are so funny and encouraging and TALENTED and i know stayblr has treated you poorly at times but it’s better because you’re in it. even if this place was truly stayblr dot hell for me this blog would’ve been worth it because without it i wouldn’t have met u. u are my favorite mutual....don’t tell the others. thank you for always hyping me up and listening to anything in the world i have to say and supporting me in like every area of my life in the past year. i am so grateful for u and i love u and your talent and content but especially u so much!! @hyune: shoutout to u for being so supportive, i truly appreciate u so much. i will continue to make blue content just for you 💗confession i also always forget your name adsfsdgdg so i have to frequently go look at your about and even then forget it again. but hi jen!! your tags are always so fun to read, tysm and i hope you’re having a great day @hyunjins: i know we have only spoken one (1) time but i wanted to issue a formal thank u for feeding the hyunjinators with me. tbh i find how different our coloring is super funny but also amazing bc we can gif the same thing and have it look completely different from each other, and i think that’s rly fun and that the variety is really good for stayblr too. i also want to thank u for inspiring plsdontrepost even though i haven’t used it in months,,,, it has historically succeeded at its job quite a few times now 🥳 i know u were gone for a bit but it’s been good to see you around again too!

hi, it is i, mary 👋 i know most of you don't actually know me other than for my gifs on this blog but i still wanted to write a lil thank you message. even though i have always been into boy groups i never thought i would get into skz, and even less that i would actually follow them pretty closely since that's not really something i do with the exception of one group (pouring one out for izone) because it's just too much commitment for me. i didn't think i would be running a blog dedicated to one group for a whole year (more to come ??) but i must say that even though i haven't always been really active here it sure has been fun, both keeping up with skz and being here with carly (rip ele you'll be missed). i always enjoy seeing yalls creations cause stayblr sure has a bunch of talented ccs and when there's something i wanna gif but i don't have the time or motivation and i see someone else does it i'm like god bless thank u for my life. thanks for always being so kind, sweet and funny in the tags and thanks for all the support you have all given us in the past year, i'm certain we wouldn't still be here if it wasn't for all of you, like sure giffing a group you life for yourself is fun, but sharing your content on a supportive community sure makes the experience more enjoyable yknow. i'm gonna write a short message to three individuals that i have a bit more to say to, but to the rest of stayblr i'm looking forward to see more of your creations, thank u for a great year 🥳 let's see for how much longer we can keep this blog up! @hyeongjunz: *taps mic* ok carkeys, it's time for me to say something. i was thinking how the possible existence of this blog goes way before we got into skz and how it wouldn't have been possible at all if haru hadn't convinced you first to join the izone server because i don't think we would've met any other way really LOL so thanks haru, AGAIN. you know i'm really thankful to you for keeping the blog alive while i was dead and still nowadays even tho you are busy 🙏 both for original content and reblogs, you are certainly the backbone of yangjeongin, so thank you 🥺 running the blog with you is fun, specially when we Accidentally gif the same thing and i end up laughing for 10 minutes. thanks for all the support and reassurance, and obviously thank you for all the amazing content you create, i don't know who else i could've ran a skz blog with, but i'm happy i got to do it with you. love u lots barneys 🥰 @minhos: thank u for dragging me into skz, goodbye. jk, i think this is gonna sound a lil redundant cause i think carly mentioned it but, even though i miss gifmaker haru i love artist haru and seeing how much you have improved makes me feel like a proud parent for some reason LMAO obviously wouldn't be here at all without you, and it is certain that my experience as a baby stay was more enjoyable thanks to you. thanks for all your support in all aspects of my life, i'm thankful for being your friend. thank u for being the mastermind behind yangjeongin, we would be dead fish in the sea without you. love u 💖 @seungs: last but not least i guess 🙄 not to play favorites but u easily became one of my favorite people, i always have a lot of fun talking to you and sharing my dumb takes with you which Fortunately u end up supporting 😌 thanks a lot for always supporting what i make and supporting me whenever i'm having a giffing crisis. you are certainly one of the reasons i have enjoyed my time around here, i love absolutely all of your content and u are one of my favorite ccs 🙄 happy to share the same brain with you sometimes, specially when it comes to seungracha. well i don't wanna be sappy so i'm gonna cut this off here 🙄 just want you to know i'm gonna think about that 18 jisung set u said u were gonna do everyday until i die, i'm gonna be a little more deranged every day without that set. anyway uh, yeah, thanks for everything pal, lov- [record scratches]
