She shines so bright, you'll need sunscreen.
If you have a look around MyO for the next few days, you'll see something in common with a bunch of sites, including my own which sports a neat little banner at the bottom that simply lights up this dimly lit corner of mine. They're all celebrating one special person in their lives.


Her name is Shanny.


Now here's my story. I met Shanny not too long ago through friends here at MyO. All they could say about her were wonderful things. How she's sweet and friendly and how she stands up for you and basically her all around goodness. I finally got to chatting with her over MSN and everything said was true.

Shadow put it the best. "She laughs when we laugh, cries when we cry, and triumphs when we triumph." I can never say that enough has been said to describe such a person. Even a thesaurus ain't got enough to describe her.

What stands out about her the most is her devotion to her friends. She stands up for her closest friends and fights for the good of all. All guardian-styles. She is there for you when you need her. When you're hurt, her words are like band-aids and magic herbs that make you feel alot better.

Shanny's mighty will has pushed her through a lot and she's still going strong. When she tumbles she's all like, "Hey. No big deal. It was just a rock and I fell. Let's keep going, yo." And when you tumble, she picks you up and she's all like, "Hey you. Get up. I fell and got up and you should too. Let's trudge on for another few hours then set up camp and have some drinks and stuff. It'll be fun. C'mon!"

...yeah. That's how I picture it..

She has a great sense of humour, a lovely taste in music and she's pretty much one of the greatest friends you could ever have.

She does so much for her friends and in return, we're more than willing to do the same. Therefore, we have declared her birthday month, September, to her and all her Shanny goodness.

I am honoured, privileged and damn glad to have met you, dearest Shantato. You've done more for me and the rest of us than you think. And for that, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We love you Shanny. This month is for you.


Cheers.

P.S. Feel free to use my banner or the banners found at participating Shanny fansites around MyO (including Shadow's place and Evil's place). Feel free to make your own as well.

P.S. Holy crap. I made a banner tonight. TWO, in fact. The other is in PhoenixClawth's comment box. She's celebrating her 14th birthday! Get over to her place and wish her a great one!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATIE!

Now I think I'm liking this banner-making thing. Sure, I suck but I'm getting the hang of it.
