Important! I am still willing to be a guest judge in this year's SGT also an art dump may be y'all's christmas present Okay, so... Yeah. This is like my third or fourth version of this project, and I think I need to be more serious this time around. I am (for the most part), leaving Scratch. There will be no more Shining Stars. Maybe I'll tell you guys the plot, maybe not. I'm afraid I don't know. Although, addressing what I said in parenthesis; I am not fully leaving. I will still be on to maybe post an art dump or two, respond to a few comments, like a few projects, stuff like that. But for the most of my content, there won't be much. This isn't really out of the blue, either. I've been pondering this thought of leaving since the end of SGT. You see, last year I was in 7th grade, my first year of middle school. It was WAY different than elementary school, and a lot harder. I would spend all my afternoon doing homework, then when I was supposed to go to bed, I would stay up till about 12 working on SGT. Making a whole story and comic in a month is hard, okay? Anyway, this really messed me up. I lived on about six hours of sleep, which is not good for a growing kid who would spend 7 1/2 hours at school. I'm not one to self-diagnose, but something was really screwed up with me and my way of thinking. I thought that being stressed was good, as it made me like an adult, even though subconsciously I knew this was wrong. I was screwed up, and I knew it. Cried a lot. The only reason I'm able to talk about it now, is because I overcame that. Once Scratch's Got Talent was finished, I posted Shining Stars a bit, but then stopped. And I never had been happier. I recall a certain time during the summer where I was just playing Hypixel whilst listening to a livestream in the background. In that moment, I realized how happy I was, and how far I had come from my 7th grade self. So I shed a few tears of happiness (i'm a crybaby, i get it lmao). This happened a few more time during the rest of summer, and while not as much during this school year, I'm still happy. I've been doing a lot of homework, yes, but I'm way better than last year. And I would like to keep it that way. And don't get me wrong; you guys weren't the source of my struggles. You guys are the reason I thought about leaving or not for so long. That's why I've found a mid-way point. My absence has nothing to do with the Scratch drama of taking down projects for the silliest of reasons (okay maybe a little), no hard feelings ST haha please dont come for me. You guys still here? If so, thanks. Ranting is interesting. I think over the course of about 5 and a half years of scratch (including my old account), I've only ranted about once. And vented twice (including this one). You can't find the first vent, since I deleted it. But yeah. Thank you guys so, so, so, so, much for all of your support, and I hope to be able to pop in here every once in a while to talk to y'all. Have a great rest of your night/day. :) <3 Updates! I moved. Same state, though, and still going to the same school. Although we live a lot farther away. Glad to finally have a house of our own after over six years of renting :) also i really hope my siblings won't find this haha that would be embarrassing, as I told no one about this 11/15: I think it's finally time to post this. This silly project took like two months to make because I've been dreading it, but you know... I think it's time AHHH I'M NERVOUS FRICK sibaienosnfoenoefdjkdixwiu oh yikes now i have to check my messages... going at 456 now!
