Everything I do, I do for you guys

As A-CEN approaches, I have been through a wild ride where I did not know if I could go or even be able to help others. I feared that I wasn’t doing enough for the MAD FAMILY, that I should be actively pursuing this dream that I share with so many other fantastic people across the globe. That I had the opportunity that I had often dreamed about, but was too afraid to step out of my safety zone to grasp it. My money situation was making me too afraid to want to do this.

But as I thought more on it, it was almost selfish for me to deny others the same opportunity. So I decided to step up and help with the MAD FAMILY ROAD TRIP, even if I would only be picking up the one person who got back to me. That one person, TwilightMarth, had been wanting to see them as much as I had and to have the ability to pick her up and bring her with us, just knowing that I had helped another fan achieve something that meant a lot to them, well…that’s the best feeling in the world.

And the more I think about it, this is what the MAD FAMILY means to me. It’s this undying support for each other, this shared love that connects our hearts. We all dream big, but sometimes we need help achieving those dreams. This family of ours has stood by each other, defended and loved each other. We are scattered among many different continents in many different countries, but we all feel this love. Its this desire to help each other that defines the MAD FAMILY. And the harder I work to help bring this family one step closer to being official, the more all of your support helps fuel this desire.

This isn’t for me, this isn’t even about just meeting LM.C to say that I have, this is for the Family, for the friends who aren’t there physically but in spirit, the ones who sing along to the songs even when no one can hear them.

This is for all of you MAD WONDERHOLICS

This is for the MAD FAMILY

And I want to thank our lovely founder Kei for bringing us all together, for giving us a meeting place where we can share ideas and help improve this family. A place where all our ideas mold into one and we move forward to a brighter tomorrow, the tomorrow we all share together. I want to thank her for allowing me to be a part of this family, for allowing me to be a Moderator on the forum. To be able to help her is really an honor and a pleasure.

Everything I do, I do for all of you MAD WONDERHOLICS.

I love each and every single one of you, so let us continue to walk this path towards tomorrow.

Always with each other, always Wonderholic, always MAD.

; A ; Well said.

Seriously,if it wasn't for you,I'd just be sitting at home waiting for that day to pass because I couldn't go and I wouldn't want to think about it. ; 3; But because you're awesome enough to come get me for this trip,I can finally live a dream! So...thank you for that.

And it's true...there's just this never-ending love between us all and a want to help others. Believe me,if I had my own personal transportation to ACEN (like a car or van),I'd be trying to pick up as many MAD Wonderholics as I could on the way.

But you know something...? I'd like to think of this trip I'm going to take as kind of the same thing. Because...even if there's some of you that can't go,we'll keep you there in spirit and make memories to share. Memories that,hopefully,would be vivid enough so that it was like you were right there with us and maybe members of this family wouldn't feel so sad about not being able to make it.

I can only hope that what we capture from this trip of ours to bring to you can be enough to help you experience what happens at the con.

Sorry if I'm rambling on...but that's just something I wanted to add on~ ^^

Waaaaaa~ you guys are so sweet D: I've not been around long, but I'll do my best to be here for everybody as well, though I kinda fail at most things XD... This community has been one of the coolest I've ever been in and I can't wait to spend more time with everybody :D

Awwwhh Ikari I'm legit in tears from your sweetness <3

I'll be honest, when I started MAD FAMILY, it was a kind of 'If I do this I might be able to meet LM.C!' kind of thought. BUT, ever since, I've seen how much love everyone here has for LM.C, and now, I always think, "How would this benefit other fans? How can I give them something special that they'll treasure? How can I make them happy? How can I make them smile?"

I can honestly say, MAD FAMILY has helped me to become a better person. I wont say I'm never selfish, but, I'm definitely LESS selfish now.

So for all you guys, I'll continue to do my best for you all. To bring you all closer to LM.C.

I'll always be here for you all, and I'll always listen.

I want to see your precious smiles, ok? I want you all to be as happy as possible, even if you're having a rough time, I want to give you something to smile about.

I'm so proud of what MAD FAMILY has become, and I hope it'll only get better as tiem goes by.

I'm so proud of Ikari, and Tsu, for taking on the challenge of doing the MAD FAMILY ROAD TRIPS. It's not an easy thing, to organise all that and to gather the money needed to do it, and I hope in the future more fans can be like this and help others.

I may have made this place for us all to meet and talk and share out love, but I'd be nothing without all of you.

So, THANK YOU ALL for making MAD FAMILY what it is.

I love all of you MADDIES, WONDERHOLICS, TEAMERS, whatever you like to call yourself!

Keep smiling, and KEEP ON GOING WONDERHOLIC!

All my love,
Kei
