family always starts at home. and glue is a home for me.
from strangers we became one big family. a precious family.
the magic thing about home is that it may feel good to leave. but it feels even better to come back.

so whenever you think about leaving. make sure to come back here soon. because we as a family dont leave each other.
and as we know, no family is perfect. sometimes we argue. we fight. some of us even stop talking to the other at times. but in the end family is family, right?
we create so many happy, crazy and fun memories and i am v thankful for that!! i really have a great time here.

thank you for everyone especially youngjae son, minabubu and yoongi mom my partner in crime, my admin chingudeuls. also thank you sehoney, myoui, jinthonk, daebaer son, mi boo, chewy baby, taetae sis, bestoe, milo baby, kookie, biddyson, chubsm8, jennie bub, joohyuk, taeyeon, chaeyeon, naeun, jongup, sojin, johnny, woozi, jessi, pap in law, jiwoo, jimin, chaerin, krystal, jin, jieun, simon, yongguk, taeyong, nayeon, himchan, baothy, jiyong, subin, yeri, minheehee, yuta, hakyeon, shownu, chaeyoung, bora, hyuna, seungcheol and our pristin babies yehana, roa, sungyeon, xiyeon, eunwoo, and eunseo. thank you for joining glue and become my family. < 3 thank you for the old members as well! ps. i missed you guys.

Happy anniversary, glue!
I've come to love this place more than I expected. What a surprise.
...That's a lie. I'd love this place so much since day one.
When I first came on 30th June 2016, I was immediately welcomed with warm greetings.
My notifications was flooded with mentions. Everyone was crazy friendly, it was ridiculous.
Till this day it stays as one of the most memorable 'first day' I have in an agency.
Now a year have passed and I've never been so grateful I joined Glue.
Though most of the old members are no longer here, I strive to be be as friendly and welcoming as they were when I first joined; so everyone can feel what I felt like back then. I want to share that warm and fuzzy feelings.
Just like any other place that has been around for a long time, we have our fair share of ups and downs but we go through it together. And I appreciate them all, I learnt a lot and love a lot.
I went from being a member to being a member with access to base account.
I went from being single to actually getting into a relationship.
I went from being hella shy to a little bit shy. Ahah.
I went from having a friend to having a family.
And that's only few to compare to all the things I've experienced in Glue.
I don't want to make this sound sappy, but I think the damage is done.
Nonetheless, I'm so thankful for the friendships I've made along the way. Both old and recent members; and the one I'm about to befriend.
You guys rock. *insert an actual picture of a rock here*

Happy anniversary once again, glues. Here's to infinity and beyond.

dear mamita,

that warm, and cosy feeling when you entered a new environment, yup that's how i felt when i stepped inside gluetown. up until now i did not regret anything and it has been- idk? 9 or 10 months already? heck time does passed by quickly when you enjoy talking to the people whom you love. yes i have some complications before but that didn't stop me loving this sticky family. to be honest, i thought i would be left out here but you guys proved it wrong! heck! from flooding my mentab to embarrassing my due to my massive amount of typos- i cannot believe. but hey that's what family are for, right? also, thank you for listening to my rant everytime! good thing i did not stressed you out that much- right? sweats. to finish my speech off, i'd like to say that i love you mamita from the bottom of my hypothalamus!

ALL GLUE PEEPS GREAT AND SMALL, TALKATIVE AND INTROVERTED, OLD AND NEW, i have never felt more at home than i had been with you guys. my seven (actually five since i kinda went missing for like two months) were a blast with you guys. i never would have thought that this place would push me out of my shell and let me be who i really am. i had doubts that i would fit in, yes, but you guys somehow vanquished that fear and rather made it feel okay to be different. i can never thank you guys enough that you helped me feel at home, and that in turn, made me happy very much.

people may come and go, from that person you had fun talking to for three days down to the person whom you've been with the majority of your time here, all of them will be remembered and that shouldn't stop us from making a greater bond amongst us who are still here, hoping to find a happy family amongst people of different interests. i hope everyone can find their friends and families here, because i, speaking from experience, knows how amazing, warm and loving glue peeps are.

happy anniversary to my first home, and i hope glue reaches more milestones ahead. thank you for everything guys, it was a pleasure to be beside such amazing people. take care everyone, and i love you all!

hey, we made it! 365 days of glue. a lot of people came, some left, others stayed. some loved our family, others not so much.
we, as a family, had or happy days, the crazy days, the quiet ones, the more unpleasant ones yet we managed to pull through everything.
and for that, me and i'm sure the other admins will agree, can give full credit to you, glues. you're the ones who showed love to this roleplay, who listened to mommies and tried to get through any problems we might have faced.
through this past year, i met amazing people. glue has been my source of happiness, but also a place i've sweated lots over (nae ppit ttam nunmul). i don't regret any of the days spent here, because in the end i got to spend time with everyone and believe me, each one of you is special.
with all that said, i want to thank all glues that ever became a part of this family. even those who didn't enjoy it that much, the old ones that stuck with us and of course the new glues. we wouldn't continue without you guys and i hope despite our old age you stick with us and feel at home.
last but not least, a big clap goes to the admins that helped keep glue intact. seulgi dad, who became an admin since her first days here and also my dad, yoongi hyung, despite your short time as an admin, i'm really glad you're helping out (i love you tons!!) and mina, glue's mess! i'll call her jamal. love you, mina. and sungjin. thanks for helping before, me me big boy. you're a living proof that glue is home and you always come back home.
hey, if any of those that adminned and are no longer with us happens to see that, thank you, as well. you did your part and you've also contributed to glue getting here.
with all that said, let's make it our goal to be one of the longest lasting roleplays! things won't be all unicorns and rainbows, but i believe in glues. thank you for sticking with us up till now, let's aim for another one year!
ps. please deal with mommies nagging sometimes. we only do this for your own good!

I’ve taken a while to get this out, I’m sorry. This is kinda long and a little rambly, so I also apologize for that, in advance!

I wasn’t actually in Glue since the beginning. I’m not sure when I originally arrived, but it was sometime in July? Glue had been opened for a little while, but honestly, I only joined originally because son (a.k.a Seulgi) was here. However, despite that, I found myself sticking around and being more active in Glue than anywhere else. I slowly ended up dying in the few other rps I was in, because Glue took all my attention at the time. It was a lot of fun, and I remember laughing a lot in the beginning.

I’ve left Glue twice, once because I needed some time for a little recovery and another time because I was very busy. No matter what, though, I figured I’d find my way back. Glue has actually been part of my life for almost the full entire year it’s been in operation, and I’m not planning on going anywhere, again. This is home, and all that comes with it.

Sure, there’s been times where I’m just really lazy and don’t want to come on, or I just need a break, but I’m actually always around! I feel attached to everyone, even the people I haven’t spoken with a lot. Speaking of which, I’m really sorry for not being able to talk to everyone more privately and at length all the time. It’s my fault, really. I’m not very good at 1x1 conversation, but I promise that I don’t really secretly hate you, or something. I like you all, even if I get headaches sometimes lmao

Anyway! I’d like to especially thank Seulgi for being my friend for over a year, and for always being there to listen to my whining HAHAHAHA You’re really the best and truest son any person could have, and I’m so thankful that you’re my friend. I’d also like to thank Youngjae for always being there, as well! I know that we didn’t really talk a lot until I came back, but I’m so glad that we’ve been able to, because I consider you one of my best friends. Please know that I’ll always be there for you!!

The same goes to everyone I’ve met in Glue, past and present. Thank you for being parts of all of our lives, and thank you for continuing to stick with Glue. Let’s stay sticky for even longer! (P.S. My goal is to make it to 40K, so lmao we gotta last for at least another year go big or go home.)

i'd like to think that i was one of the og kiddos of glue, bc i was here about 1 to 1 1/2 months after glue started and wowza! it's been such a ride! i've spoken to many gluesies and have taken many hiatuses. sweats. but fantastical gluetown has never let me down. when i joined as daehyun, i was greeted almost immediately by the kind members (who is now admin, omo!! @ kwon mina!!) and by admin jae who was so delighted to see another bap member! i knew dearest somi/jieqiong irl but gluetown definitely opened me up to a new spectrum of frienderinos! there were spooky faces that i couldn't find myself speaking to (though i did... ish!) and faces that adopted me as their dad, or granddad, or something else! (@ my son) i don't recall ever being part of such a loving and welcoming community and though we are not the biggest, i know that we're the most close-knit, even with 60+ members! only the admins know of the bad times, but for me, i think glue has been aju nice! thank you to the admins and bubbly wubbly glue for keeping this place super sticky and allowing me to be stuck in it. once glued, always glued!

and uh, sweats heavily, im not an artist, so enjoy my wondiferous drawing that i whipped up real quick on mspaint.

an analysis by the artist: mumdy is celebrating her big 1 year anniversary! daedoggo is on the bottom, chanting "i <3 u" bc mumdy, i really do! you're the queen of gluetown, and though i'm not such a sappy individual, i hope you'd enjoy this poorly drawn, purple frosted cake with your four personalities, jaebunny, perishedt. kwon mina, deadt. sooj/seulbear, and the sweetest pea that is also my twin brother, yoongs!! attempts to wipe the waterfall that is my sweat. i tried very hard mumdy. my index finger is quite raw from all the swiping i did on me laptop touchpad. grins widely.

this is going to be messy and i don't want to sound like a corny grandma, but.... Well Glue what can I say? you've indeed become a home to me and every member has a special place in my heart. even if we are not all close, we each have our own personal characteristics that i've come to appreciate very much. there are times i think about leaving due to personal issues but somehow i can't bring myself to do it!! i've become stuck to this place!!

i know i haven't been here for as long as others, but this is a place i'd seriously invite my friends to as if it were my actual home. but then again glue has become my home so– yea i guess. heh. i'm thankful for all the crazy and random friendships i've made with people i'd never expected to become friends with because i was so quiet at first, but these crazy and random friendships helped me feel more at home here so i'm thankful to each and every one of you! if we have not already formed our own special friendship; we still have time so let's do so! i hope to see our glue family grow more and more!
let's stay sticky, hot, and messy (but not too messy), everyone!
a special big "I love you" and "Thank you" to our beloved mommy for always doing tHEiR best and putting up with all of our randomness!

your chingu, Seo Youngho (Johnny)
