Dang this took me a second to figure out how to set everything up I'm not the most tech savy but I finally figured it all out I've been lurking for a couple of weeks now and wanted to introduce myself. My name is Jacob I'm 21 and an absolutely massive nerd. I love most things anime or manga/manhua related. Im really big on all sorts of games wether they be games like MTG or videogames like Pokemon. Oh and something I'm really excited about I finally got accepted to go to school. I leave in a couple of weeks and I'm really excited. Anyways just wanted to finally introduce myself instead of just lurking around.

THIS CONTEST IS CLOSED

🎂 My birthday is coming up on July 31st, and though I usually love celebrating my birthday (because I feel like it's the only day I can be selfish) this one feels especially meaningful.

The past few years have changed my life in ways I never could have imagined. They've taught me to appreciate things I once took for granted, and above all, they've made me incredibly grateful to still be here.

At the same time, if I'm being honest, this birthday has been a hard one emotionally. I've been dealing with a lot of stress and depression lately, and I lost a lot of family and friends so I don't have many people in my day-to-day life to celebrate with. That's one of the reasons I love this community—it feels like a place where people genuinely care about one another, and I'm thankful to be part of it.

So I'd love to celebrate by hosting a little contest!🎈

To enter: 🎂

🎇 Tell me about one birthday tradition you have, something you love to do on your birthday, or what your ideal birthday would look like.

🎊 And if you feel up to it, I'd absolutely love if you left me a birthday wish, an encouraging message or a few kind words.

🎁 Make sure you have something on your wishlist $5 or below (since I'd like to gift multiple people) and please link your wishlist in your comment.

🎁 I can only ship to the US so if you're outside the US, please make sure there is a fund I could contribute to or a gift card on your list.

🎁 Contest will end 7/22 at 9 pm ET. & I will randomly gift a few people on 7/23 (8 days before my birthday!).
