Updates, Notes, and Stuff From The Admin

Okay, I promise. Last journal of the night, cause I know I'm really spamming you all with them.
Really sorry about that.
But I wanted to update some stuff while I was up before school..

So...

The Contest--
The contest date is still ending on the 10th of September. A reminder to any of you who still want to enter, you still have 3/4 days to do so. On the 9th, I'll conduct my judging and let you all know on either the 10th or 11th who wins. I'd like to also say that, even if you don't win, your OCs are all citizens of the card kingdom. Win or lose, I really like all of them, and it'll be a really tough choice to decide who wins. So many great entries so far...

Read more on the contest, here! ---> Card Kingdom Concept Character Contest!So, most of you know that I'm out on vacation as of last night, and I've been kept busy.
But I've been seeing a lot of contests about making characters based on princes' kingdoms and what the people whom lived there would look like. That's honestly a really cool idea, so I thought I'd steal do something like that too, since I've had a few people already ask me to make OCs, I thought it'd be fun!
So, the rules are--
Any character made must follow these criteria, and if you've already made an OC and want to enter him/her, you might need to tweak them if you'd still like to enter.
   -The color scheme must remain in the reds, blacks and whites. Shades and tones can vary, but there can't be any random color, like purple or green.
   - The skin can vary colors, meaning the person can be black, red, and white. Two tone is possible, but it is extremely rare. If you're going to do it, you'll have to explain as to how this came along.

Stuff On The Admin--
So...I've gotten really far in the last..month? Month I've been here. I thought I'd take a chance to put a little something about myself, cause I've gotten some comments saying that it was nice to learn about me. Well...
I'm 16 years old, birthday is April 21st.
I'm currently going into my junior year of highschool.
I live in a small town of...20k people. Give or take.
I hate, and I mean, HATE big cities. They freak me out completely. So I absolutely hated going to NY.
In real life..I'm honestly a lot like I am on here. Less shy, to tell you the truth, I have a good group of friends, and I like to meet new people every day.
I'm a quarter Japanese. Hence...the slightly chubby face and weird eyes.lolololol I got it from my grandfather, who was actually one of the Japanese who was sent to live in the internment camps in WWII after the Pearl Harbor bombing.
There was actually an ask account that inspired me to join the community. I know she's not on much anymore, but...

I saw her OC, and just fell in love with her. I loved everything about her, and I'm really sad she doesn't come on much anymore.  She seemed like such a nice person, and I would've freaked out if I ever met her.
Maybe someday, still..

Also, a few extra things from me--
I just reached 328 watchers.
328.
That's so many, so so many. I was shocked when I reached 100. I know I don't say it enough, but I really really appreciate all the love you all give me. The words of encouragement, and friendly chats have just been...amazing. It means a lot to be able to talk to such wonderful artists, and make so many good friends.
This leads me to my next topic, I actually wanted to apologize, for my constant..well...stuff. I upload a lot, and I post journals a lot. For that, I'm really sorry. My mind runs a mile a minute, and from past experience, when I don't talk it over, it gets...quite bad. I dunno if anyone remembers when I threatened to leave? That was one of the times.
Also, an apology to those that I post a lot on their junk. That's probably not a lot cause..I seem to keep to myself a lot it seems. But, again, my mind runs a mile a minute, and I seem to act before I think. So for that, I'm sorry, for spamming your profiles with silly junk.
Another apology, to those who start RPs with me, but then I never reply. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I'm a terrible person to RP with. I often lose replies, and forget about them till weeks later going through replies. By that time, it's been awhile and the RP is pretty dead. I really don't mean it to anyone offensively, it doesn't mean I don't like RP'ing with you, it just means that I'm terrible at replying.

This specifically goes out to --
I'm so sorry baby, for never replying to the RPs, and I have no excuse for not replying. I'm a terrible person for not replying, but know that, I love RP'ing with you, I love RP'ing Ace and Loveless with you. They are my forever OTP, and you're one of my dearest friends since I came on here. I know I don't say it enough, but I love ya, you've done so much for me, and I haven't done nearly enough for you. But I am trying, and I have things on the way for you. I just need to get off my lazy buns and outline and color them.

Whew...just did a total brain dump on..everyone. If any of you read through this whole thing, you get a hug and a cookie from me.
Wish me luck at my first day of school tomorrow, and I hope to talk to you all later!
Just a note, this isn't leading up to me leaving. I've just had a bunch on my mind, and well..brain dump!
