Dear Everyone,
So this is it.
We finally reach this point of time na kailangan ng tapusin ang L.A., I never expected myself to be able to finish this craft. For 6 years, I never thought of an ending because in the first place, hindi ko siya pinlanong tapusin. Writing a book was never a career path for me when I was 13 (the time when the idea of L.A. was conceive) kasi wala akong trip non, it was just for my entertainment. Before pa ito napunta sa wattpad, Lost Academy was written on a notebook, at the back of my notebook on one of my subjects (Yes, ako po yun. I have no idea anong pumasok sa isip ko nung mga oras na iyon basta ang alam ko lang, naengganyo akong magsulat kasi halos lahat ng mga academy books sa wattpad that time ay nabasa ko na (I was interested in stories with school/universities/academy at that time), wala na akong ibang nabasa kaya gumawa gawa ako sa notebook ko ng plot na hindi ko pa nababasa.
When I first posted L.A. in wattpad, hindi ko pinlanong maggather ng mga readers nor mag maintain ng wattpad account kasi L.A. for me that time was just an avenue for myself to express my imagination. Inu-update ko lang siya noon kung trip ko lang mag-update at bumabalik lang ako sa wattpad para pampatanggal ng stress. That was year 2013 (I am 16 yrs old that time, imagine 3 years siyang nastuck sa notebook ko), Lost Academy that time was really poorly written. Yung hindi ko namamalayan na ang dami ko palang spacing and dot-dot-dot na nilalagay, but then I was surprised na kahit ganon na nga ang pagkakaformat non, may nagbabasa pa rin. Alam mo yung feeling na kahit baguhan ka palang at napakaraming errors pa ng work mo pero may nakakaappreciate pa rin sa plot, sobrang nakakaamaze. Nakakaboost ng confidence. That's why I strive to get better.
As I grow older, ang L.A. ang naging reflection ng growth ko as a writer here in wattpad, kita naman niyo siguro ang mga errors at ang progress na nangyari sa writing style ko habang nadadagdagan ang chapters. I am not ashamed to admit that L.A. is a work I crafted for over 9 years of my life (Including the years na naging stuck siya sa notebook ko nung high school.) That's why, L.A. is closer to my heart and means so much to me more than any other story I have written. L.A. was and will always be my baby. I love how perfectly imperfect L.A. is.
For the past 6 years, ang layo na ng narating ng L.A. at kung di dahil sa inyo, hindi ko talaga to matatapos and for that thank you. To the ones who waited patiently for updates kahit pa umabot ng 6 years, you keep on making me amaze and very grateful that I have readers like you. To your unyielding loyalty and support for L.A., maraming salamat po talaga!
To my Lost Academy family in facebook, you never failed to amaze me with your efforts in making both lost academy fb group and fb page alive even if minsan na lang ako nakakatambay doon. To L.A. Council (Gc namin ng admins), ang tagal na nating nagkakausap sa virtual world, you already feel like a family to me. Imagine, sa loob ng ilang taon, teenagers pa tayo nung nagkakilala (High school at that) at nagkakausap virtually, dami na ring napagdaang issue and all, tsaka kahit may kanya-kanya na tayong buhay (Iba kasi may pamilya na, college/college graduate na tas ang iba naman nagtatrabaho na), hindi pa rin kayo nakakalimot mag-log in at tumambay sa gc. Doon ko narealize, na ang laki pala talaga ng impact ng L.A. sa buhay ko kasi kung di dahil sa story, I will never meet such amazing people. THANK YOU! For all the endless nagging na mag-update na hanggang sa mga 'laban lang' messages na natatanggap ko, maraming salamat. Hindi ko talaga matatapos ang L.A. kung hindi dahil sa napakatibay na support system ko.
Kay Abe (tagal na nating magkakilala ah hahaha), Ana-chi (minsan man tayo nagkakausap pero I'm cheering for you, ang dami ng ganap sa buhay mo, I hope you do well with your writing career and be successful. P.S. Naghahanap pa ako kung saan ko mabibili book mo. haha), Oliver (Na nag-sta-struggle ngayon sa acads at randam ko ang mga hinanakit sa gc, Laban ka lang dyan, matatapos ka rin), Regine (I am thankful to you for supporting and for loving L.A. ❤ Alam kong madami kang tanong at hinanakit sa ending, pag-usapan natin yan.), Rica (Thank you for all the efforts in keeping L.A. alive ❤️, I am really grateful to you) at ang dami ko pang hindi namention pero sa lahat ng admins, hindi ko na kayo maisa-isa pero alam kong alam niyo na kayo ang tinutukoy ko. You are one of the best people I have met. Ngayong tapos na ang L.A., sana hindi rin matapos ang mga interactions na meron tayo. Lovelots.
To Lost Academy GC, guys laban lang sa buhay, alam kong marami kayong pinagdadaanan sa buhay, idaan niyo nalang yan sa pakikinig sa mga vm ni Sabel. Hahahaha. Thank you sa walang humpay na pagsubaybay sa L.A.
To my readers, both offline and online, MARAMING SALAMAT SA ANIM NA TAONG PAGHIHINTAY, PAGTA-TIYAGA SA PAGVOVOTE AT PAGCO-COMMENT, PAGSUPORTA, AT PAGSAMA SA L.A. JOURNEY KO. I LOVE YOU GUYS, YOU MADE ME THE WRITER THAT I AM TODAY, IF NOT FOR YOU, I WILL NOT STRIVE TO BECOME A BETTER WRITER.
To my family and some friends, na walang idea na nagsusulat ako ng stories sa wattpad maliban nalang nung umabot sa kanila yung balita from Psicom sa facebook. Yes po, I'm writing stuffs. Love you guys.
To Wattpad, I owe every milestones of L.A. to you. Kung hindi ka nag exist, I will never meet these amazing people. Ang laki ng impact na binigay mo sa akin. At first, you are just a place for entertainment then you became an avenue to vent out my frustrations in life and then finally, you become an instrument for me to learn a lot of things in life. Marami akong napulot na aral sa mga stories gawa ng kapwa ko manunulat. Note: mas lalong nahasa ang pagtatagalog at pag-eenglish ko nang dahil sa mga stories sa wattpad. Filipino and English are both not my mother tongue language.
Ang dami ko pang gustong pasalamatan at sabihin pero I think it will all go down to 3 words and another 8 letters, THANK YOU GUYS, I LOVE YOU! ❤
From yours truly,
BLABBERSALERT 2019
P.S. Lost Academy will not have Lost Academy Part 2 but wait for further announcements, I have something in store for you all. I'm sure matutuwa kayo sa sasabihin ko.
