On a closing note...
I would just like to take this time to thank everybody for attending the 15th Anniversary Party. Although my day started out very busy (I am deeply sorry), I got to participate in the party later in the day and I got to watch TLK afterward ^^ To me, the party was a huge success! Many people attended and shared their stories and history with TLK, which were all very interesting to read. This topic is definitely one of those topics that will be kept in my bookmarks forever. Lion King fans are truly a unique crowd and it was definitely shown during this party. I think it would a great idea to celebrate The Lion King's birthday every year! Next year is TLK's sweet sixteenth! ^^ Let's buy TLK a car! ^^
Again, thank you everyone that shared their stories, and thanks for the appreciation! (I lol'd when I saw "Sleepy KM"). The "dry spell" is totally spot-on. Many of our stories are alike...we see it in theatres as a cubby and then we remember the magic from childhood and realize that the movie is quite more than stunning. From the sound of everyone's speeches, The Lion King has really helped them in their life like Katelyn adopting a lifestyle and Zeke getting back into drawing again. I am so glad to be a part of the TLK fandom, and I will stick with it 'til death do us part.
I would like to thank all the members for attending, especially KingKivuli, TeenSimba, and KiarasMate who brought in all these wonderful new faces with their AWESOME YT videos. ^^ (If I forgot someone PLEASE tell me).

Haha, I remember that! I wasn't expecting anyone to join that quickly.
I am so glad to have met you all and hopefully we'll all become the best of friends. Like many other people said, the TLK fanbase is one big happy pride, united through the passion that comes with The Lion King.
The party was a huge success, like I said. Thank you all for attending! (for the third time). The only regrets I have are that I was too busy during the daytime and I really wanted to have a little competition topic with some real prizes. I was just too unprepared, surprisingly. Seriously though...summer is busier than the school year was LOL.
By the way, I did not bake this cake, I just searched google for "cake lion king". You'd be surprised how many TLK cakes there are xD
