Hey everyone! Llave and I have been working on ways of trying to boost activity in the graphic art section but your input is required! We are trying our best to improve the section and the two regular competitions that are run for your benefit so if you could just spare a bit of time to fill out this short survey then we shall be most pleased (and you shall be rewarded with rainbows and glitter : D). Anything you write down is for staff use only and will not be shared with anyone. Things you need to know Fortnight tutorials This is an idea currently being toyed with, it isn't a competition but more of a community thing. It's basically someone will post a tutorial for a signature (one a KHV member posted or another that they found useful) for everyone to follow. You can then post your results in the thread and talk about it with other members to help you improve or just to learn a new technique or just for fun. Tutorials for GIMP, Photoshop, beginners and advanced people shall be posted to give everyone a chance. In the survey, the question is whether you'd partake and find it useful? Artist section This is an idea that has been played with for a while. It's basically a section in graphic art to post and discuss other people's work (art that is not your own from other artists like ones that inspire you). The main concern would be whether you'd actually use it. Other Please be as detailed as possible, if you don't frequent the graphic art section then you can still give your thoughts as any and all thoughts are welcome! You are all members of course. Also, don't be afraid to speak your mind but don't flame or be outright rude. This will remain open for you to do until 30th September for you to get your thoughts in. Please don't hesitate to ask any questions of things you are unsure about it this thread and we'll try and answer them as quickly as possible. You don't need to answer all the questions but please do as much as you can. LINK TO SURVEY Thanks all you lovely people : D
Thanks : D I need to do a lot of venting really- sadly it's just I may not be able to go study medicine in 2014 like I was hoping to simply...
I've done better, I have a lot to do before tomorrow and getting stressed about everything really O.o Things are just so stressful right now.
We treat our guests well >:3 and then drug them into becoming members.
Well, I never did physics so I can't comment on that but out of the other two I would say Chemistry, the biology exam is harder but the stuff you have to learn is easy in comparison. I don't know how many hours I spent doing chemistry work over the last two years but it was a lot more than my other subjects and I just managed an A but that is just my opinion : D I also find the concepts of physics hard to grasp but a lot of maths is involved and my brain doesn't deal well with maths. Also, a sad update- due to getting a B in biology, most UK med schools will no longer accept me so it's going to be even more difficult to get a place when I reapply.
Hey Burnitup! How are you doing?
WE SHALL BE IN THE SAME YAHHH! >: D Even from across the pond
I know right, who cares? : D Oh well, so it's A- level results day today (I don't know if anyone else got theirs today?) but I came out with AAAB (B in biology) which did mean that my results weren't good enough for Cardiff to give me an offer for medicine. This does mean that I shall be having a gap year filled with fulfilling life fulfillments (which includes work and medical work experience and the joys of reapplying). This makes no difference to any of you as I'd be here regardless of whether I was at University or not but I thought I'd give you the update anyway. Yes, I shall be having a GAP YAHH!
You should just tell me >:3 or I shall force it out of you.
LIKE YOUR FACE! >: D Alright, well good luck! Hope you kill them all!
British knock off brand?! This is Kelloggs we're talking about, the most amazing cereal company in the world >:3 better than Nestle anyway. Spoiler
I eat them for breakfast and I am no rabbit >:3 Actually, at the moment I have coco pops with look like hamster droppings...
xD I shouldn't take the mic as I was also a n00b back in the day, but hey, emoticons are cool : D
xD But I am still wearing a vegetable. Is this so people can say a wild nub has appeared? And by people I mean Cat.... and maybe some others.
I always wondered what happens to a Soul Reaper when they die? Since they are the dead anyway, I always assumed that their soul went back into the balance and they were reborn on earth... ;-; that is what I am hoping with him.
It's sad how these events can take a toll on us at points in our lives but, as Llave said, it's great to try and find and outlet and just release some tension in any way you see fit. Anger shouldn't be bottled up, you should speak to someone you trust about what you are going through and perhaps seek advice from there. I don't know what you've gone through but it is completely natural to feel paranoid about being threatened but ask yourself and really think about it, why do I think I will be threatened? What evidence is there to say I will be threatened? It's important to try and see this situation from an objective, rational manner as our brains tend to turn a situation on its head and assume the worst but, I know it's hard, but try to ignore these negative thoughts and try to concentrate on your situation and how to deal with it properly. It's also wise to remember that things probably aren't as bad as you think or they will at least get better with time, positive thinking can be a great thing. Also, I know it sounds weird, but studies have shown (and I can also attest to this!) that if you smile or sit up or adopt positive body language then it can improve moods without doing anything really. Also, if you do get a bit overwhelmed and feel you may explode at someone then take a moment, close your eyes and take deep breaths as that can help calm you as well. The power of body language on the human psych is incredible.
Alright, glad to see you two made up! ~Locked on request. Any questions, feel free to message me.
It's like counting to Pi.
If I was to go to the cinema again in the coming future it would be to see Monsters university like a good little schoolgirl.
I swear I've only just joined sixth form ;-; It is about to be September 2011 right? I find the fact that I can't stop time distressing, I miss school, I miss that regular routine...
