Yo Poptropicans, Sporty Boa is alive and ready to post… Finally. So yeah, I’ll maybe talk about my major inactivity in a later post but some of you may already know my excuse, *Cough* Hurri- *Cough* c-cane. But still, I’m pretty bummed out that I couldn’t live up to the promises I made in my previous post, so… I’m sorry.
BUUUUUT…
We’ve gotta look on da bright side. I’m back, I have wifi, and- whaaat?? Poptropica Turned 10??!!
Okay maybe I wasn’t THAT creepily excited, but still I was stoked to hear the news!
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think last Friday marked Poptropica’s 10- year birthday… Wow, Ten years. A Decade. That’s a long time if you really think about it, 10 years ago I was… In Kindergarten. (Why do I remember Kindergarten so clearly, but can’t even remember how I was like last year?) Welp time to make a MLM post about it! … Wait, I already am…
TEN YEARS AGO…
Ten Years ago, I was five. How do you picture a five- year old SB?
Did the words Quiet, Shy and Awkward come to mind? (If they did then… That’s impressive) Cause that’s who I was ten years ago. I remember my school’s name (Which was very long), my only friend at the time, who we’ll call Steven, and my teacher who when angry, was a SCARY preson. Let’s call him Mr. Hulk. (Which is partially true because when he got mad his face would turn very, very red.)
I have this funny memory from this one time when me and Steven went on a tattletail spree, going around the classroom, spotting left-out supplies or someone doing the wrong thing and rushing to the teacher to report or expose our findings. I also recall Mr. Hulk hurling a chair across the room, not at us, but so a troublesome kid could sit down and get yelled at… Oh, there was also this time when-
Random Guy: “Sorry to interrupt your leisurely stroll through memory lane, but what does any of this have to do with Poptropica?”
Sporty Boa: “You see RG, Reflecting on the past can be pretty cool. That’s why I made this series, so you guys can get a glimpse of me before AND during my Poptropica obsession. Great Experiences make Great Stories, remember my slogan?”
RG: Hmm, I guess…
On that note, I’ll end this post wishing Poptropica an Amazing (and belated) 10th B-day and wishing you guys an epic new week! Peace, this Boa’s gotta bounce!
P.S. After I left the School, I ended up meeting Mr. Hulk again who started teaching at my middle school, and I literally ran into Steven at the Grocery Store a couple of years ago… It was a VERY awkward conversation.
