  • Congrats Russet and Willa on becoming senior warriors! πŸ˜€ <3 You guys totally deserve it! πŸ˜€ πŸ™‚

    Also, congrats Flo and Birchy for becoming properly inaugurated πŸ˜€

    • When you upload an image, just copy the link and post it on here! It should show up as a picture. You don’t need an account for this, although some people have one. πŸ™‚ Hope that helped!

    • I had that problem too. Are you deleting the post after you saved the link? I did that because I was trying to be safe but I guess it didn’t work so I just went with it hoping I’d be safe from the internet πŸ™‚πŸ˜›

    • I’m assuming it’s a problem with the link type you’re using, I don’t know how to fix this since the majority of my images come from the app, but the link ending in the image type (I.e .png) might work

  • Okay, I’m going to post some of my drawings (eep!) on here. I might post them some other places, I want to hear as much constructive criticism as I can. Thank you for your time! πŸ™‚

    They are all unfinished sketches . . . and look very bad. πŸ˜›

    (I really hope this link works)

    • Nice! You are a great artist!
      My favorite is the second one.
      You want constructive criticism?… well for the third one, maybe spread the eyes out a bit?
      And for the fourth one, the ears are a bit big…
      Hope this helps!
      Good job! πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€

      • Aw, I’m not that great, but thank you. πŸ™‚
        Yeah, me too. πŸ˜›
        Sure, I’ll give that a go.
        Shrinking ears noted. πŸ™‚
        Thanks once again!

        • No problem! And could you maybe post the finished product when you’re done (I mean if you want…)? I really want to see it! πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€

  • My back hurts after horse riding and sitting on my sister’s piano stool for about 5 hours doing art homework πŸ˜› (Not to mention the homework still isn’t finished)
    Also, I had my hair cut! πŸ˜€ (Well, like a week ago but still πŸ˜› )

    (Btw: On before, I had my face painted πŸ˜› Just if you were wondering my face was bright red)

    • The ears are a bit small (unless you wanted them that way), you can darken the lines around the eyes and make them more almond shaped as well as put some white fur around them (some cats have it, if not most/all), the lines above the nose probably should be more connected to the nose, the head shape is okay but of course it depends on what breed of cat you’re drawing, you can draw some whiskers above the eyes (cats have whiskers up there), um…..yeah. Sorry if I sound critical or mean. I hope this helped though. Good luck with your drawings! πŸ™‚

      Here’s an example of my drawing. It isn’t the best but I tried to make it realistic in a way πŸ˜›:

      This was for my uncle’s b-day: https://imgur.com/a/Qi5hm

  • Congratulations to Flo, Birchy, Willa, and Russet! You all definitely deserve your positions. πŸ™‚

    (also i’m officially mentorless as of now ’cause Shiv’s on a hiatus huh πŸ˜› )

    Hey y’all. If you’re one of my friends you might have heard some of this already, but I feel like I need to get this out.

    I’ve been feeling kinda emotionally numb lately, and I don’t know why. Like, if it’s a joke or something I genuinely laugh and find it funny, but when it comes to let’s say nighttime, I just feel… empty. As in I’m still concious, but the emotional side of me fades in and out, especially towards sadness. Which doesn’t help because my imagination is all over the place and I often end up thinking about death/the world ending which I have to physically hurt myself so I will stop thinking about it. And sometimes I think if I cry, it’ll feel better, but I can’t- as in my eyes physically don’t tear up. Sometimes it’s more sad than empty. Often it’s both, swapping in and out. It’s one of the reasons I haven’t been sleeping well, because it forces me to stay awake until around midnight where I practically pass out in my bed.

    Sometimes I feel like slumping on the table and giving up, except I cant, because I’m a scholarship student and β€œa model for the 6th graders” and I feel like I have to be polite and not get into trouble and stuff. Even playing my instruments (piano and clarinet) don’t help because I’m so scared I’m going to embarass myself in the keyboard sectional concert, and I have to not let my mom suspect anything because she doesn’t understand and won’t understand.

    At the same time, I’m trying to stay friends with my best friend, whose mom hates me and this other girl named Redpaw and is threatening to draw my best friend out of our school because she isn’t socialising a lot and hanging out with us instead. There’s also the worry about Crowpaw, who’s in hospital, and my grades, and trying to keep what little of my reputation that remains. On top of that, there’s my piano grades, my band piece and being polite to the teachers. Everyone I know is stressed out and worried and I keep trying to be the peacemaker and solve problems and arguments and now I’m in the middle of almost all the pointless drama that’s going on right now. Everyone I know is expecting me to be kind and understanding. Birdpaw is having anger issues and she is constantly stressed because of things and I’m afraid she might get suspended or leave the school, or worse, stay and take it out on me, because i’m the only one with the lack of backbone to stand up to her, even when she’s making things worse for herself.

    Singing is one of the only things that keeps me relatively sane, but my best friend has a strange hatred for singing and keeps telling me to shut up whenever I start humming anything under my breath. Redpaw has already stopped being my friend and last year two of my best friends left this school, and my current friends will either not understand or are too worried themselves. I can’t tell anyone irl, because they won’t understand either. And I just… I don’t know.

    Sorry.

    • Aw, you seem to be having a very difficult time at the moment πŸ™ But you really need to talk to someone about it, I know you’ve said that you’re mom doesn’t understand but at least try to tell her at least one of your problems so that you can gain the confidence to tell the more difficult ones later on. I’m sure she cares about you! She wouldn’t want you to be upset.

      I hope this helped. *hugs* πŸ™‚

  • I’m back from being banned from the computer for two weeks πŸ˜›
    The soccer sleepover was AWESOME, and we all had so much fun! πŸ˜€ (until the end, when we doodled on one person’s legs while she was asleep because she was the first one to fall asleep and I got banned from the computer because of that but oh well πŸ˜› )
    And I have a new name which is really uncreative but who cares πŸ˜›
