Fan Fiction

Sunrise, Sunrise COMPLETED

by Lhara

Chapter 30

Thank you

Wow, I actually finished my fic! I’ve never been able to finish a story before, so I feel very content with myself! And surprisingly it wasn’t hard at all. I could say the best bit was writing the story, but actually, it’s been getting to know you guys that has been the best bit. I’ve made quite a few friends with this fic, and I’m really glad that I have!

My thanks:

First of all, I would like to say thanks to MAUNA LOA, who has become a great friend over the course of this fic. Thanks always for the help and advice and the great chats that we’ve had and will continue to have.

AMYRANTH- Have always loved your quirky comments. They always cheer me up! Thanks for supporting my fic and for giving me long comments, which, although you tried your best at, could never surpass that, what was it… 1000 word comment/essay thing I gave you! Good luck with RS and good luck with boot/hell camp you’re trekking off to. Hoping we'll stay in touch

LEIGH- I have only one thing to say to you, and that is I hope you find your Dao Ming Si in life, and soon! Lol! (have SO been waiting to say that to you since the whole Lei/DMS thing started. Wow, that was so long ago!) Thanks for being here since the beginning and always commenting. It means a lot to me.

HESTIA- Thanks for visiting this fic and commenting. You know you didn’t have to, but I’m very happy that you did. Have really enjoyed reading your comments.

RIE- Thanks also for being there since the start and giving comments that always put a smile on my face. I hope one day you get to try the snow angel thing because that’s an experience! (Probably best to do it when you are a) drunk b) with friends or c) both because you may look a bit weird going “Whee!!!!!” in the snow by yourself.)

BEAUTIFUL DREAMER- Thanks also for your support and I will continue to read your stories. Good luck on them!

To those of you who have been reading this from the start (or a long time anyway) FRANIQUE, METEOR LOVER, GLEN, LIA, PINK AND BLUE STELLAR, ACEL, HAPPY- I treasure the comments you guys have ever made. Thanks so much for sticking around!

CHRSANTHEMUM- Fellow Lifehouse fan! It’s been great knowing that there is another Lifehouse fan out there, and I wish you all the best, be it with school or your story.

DANG- I am happy that we managed to settle our differences. I hate hating anyone! And just so you know, Vanness’s hair has grown on bit quite a lot. Though it’s sad that he can no longer flip his hair as if he was in a shampoo ad. :( But I guess people move on…. *Ponders* He did flip his hair quite a lot though, didn’t he? (MZ: Oh no, DMS/SC/ Somebody else is in trouble! *Flips hair.* MZ: Xiao Qiao, you ‘re hot. *Flips hair* But I loved it all the way)

To the rest of you: VYNESSA, XIAOYOU22, TRIXIE, ANGEL7, VANESSA, JOSHEE, SHIRLEY, PATRING, I truly value your comments.

Thanks everyone, reviewers and silent readers for ever taking the time to read this.
I have plans to write another story although I haven’t really got a new plot in mind yet. Whether I see you guys on /Lhara2 or not, I wish you guys all the best and I would like to leave you with a few of my favourite quotes:

You don’t love a woman because she is beautiful. But she is beautiful because you love her.

Love is a little word; people make it big.

Learn from your mistakes and the mistakes of others. You can’t live long enough to make them all.

Never let a fool kiss you or a kiss fool you.

And (sound familiar?) A guy is better off with a girlfriend. When you have a girlfriend you become a true man. (I don’t think any of you are men so I don’t think Jing’s piece of advice would be very helpful to you, but it’s still a nifty line.)

Also, Jing’s other useful piece of advice: Everyone should have a good pair of shoes, because they will bring you to very beautiful places. (Now we all have an excuse to go out and buy a decent pair of shoes, woohoo!)
