[Chopstix]

im too stupid to really understand homestuck, im still confused about certain parts. i just liked gamzee thats all.

so i've gotten so poor that i need to wash clothes by hand now but i actually really liked doing it! i wanna try and set up a laundry line in my bathroom now, save some cheddar!

Minus a few small things, I'm actually able to start posting my first comic story on the net.
However, when I did a few simple design sketches yesterday, I'm suddenly not so excited anymore, because I realised that my art skills are actually rather crappy for that kinda stuff. Even though there isn't much to be afraid of? It's not a comic I wanted to be super serious about, which means the best art possible all the time, and it would also be great to get into pacing and getting a feel for panels and speech bubbles and such. So, all of that combined with the fact that the story is incredibly simple, it's actually a good way to get started, and it's not like I'd improve over time too, or even can re-draw pages when I got better, right?
And then I also thought, hey, two of my favorite artists just do their own stuff, and it works! They are simply having fun, and so should I. Get comfortable with my own style, and let it show trough my art that I'm saying "Hey look, that's how I draw!". After that, I felt more positive about starting this, but I'm actually still torn.

So I was wondering what you guys think, if I should wait longer and improve my art first, or just roll with it and not worry and let things proceed naturally.
Again, this is a story which I'm not super serious about, aka I don't want to make the best possible ever, it's a fun thing I had in mind for a good while now and just want to do.


I guess actual confession is, that I still need some feedback and decision helping when it comes to my art and especially drawing style aaah

I get really lonely and attention seeking when I'm on my period I guess.

I think it can be annoying and clingy but I want to be around people getting their attention.

[YCobb]

Being lonely and attention seeking for a week out of every month is better than doing it all the time like I do.

You'll always think "I could do this better in the future", you gotta do it now or you'll never be at the level you want.

@Tatzel:

The thing about being an artist is that you're never 100% satisfied with your current level of ability - and you're always more aware of your own shortcomings than other people are.

princess brothel is right - with time improvements in style and ability will come. If you have a story you're pop flyin' with, just have fun illustrating it for now (I also have to remind myself I should focus on having fun with my projects sometimes).

[Lotharu]

Apparently I've been flirting hard with a friend of a friend, and she is pretty cute, I will admit, but I feel kind of bad because I like that other girl so much.
But on the other hand, she has barely been talking to me and still won't even admit if she feels even remotely the same to me so I don't know how I really feel about it.

I feel like a bit of a douche with multiple women even though I know it isn't anything like that in reality.

[YCobb]

The thing to watch out for is that it can be really difficult to give up your feelings for someone. Don't worry so much about how you make the other girl feel, worry about whether or not you'll get over her.

[luroberto]

The only thing I feel right now is useless. That's okay I don't mind crying a bunch it's been a while.

Also it doesn't help that I realized I don't have any friends in close proximity I can talk to about this.

The only people who care are people like you, people I've met online, or as my family likes to call them: "Imaginary Friends, fake friends, not real people."

Well, they may not be "real", but they're the only ones who fucking care.

After nearly a year of indecisiveness, I'm starting to get kind of frustrated, you know? All of my friends say to move on, she either isn't going to make a decision, or she is just saying that as a polite decline.
This new girl, as I've recently found out, actually feels the same towards me apparently.
I just honestly don't know what to do. I really want to like the second girl, well I do but it is hard to admit to myself that, but it just feels wrong. After chasing after someone for that long to give up seems like the wrong choice.

I need to do some soul searching.

[Blitz Walrus]

i don't think the beatles are the best thing ever.
whenever i mention the beatles miight not be the greatest band ever people hop up on my shit going
'lol, nope! I heard this thing on tv saying they were!'

[creakyAccordion]

ah yes good someone who can agree with me

[Galaxy Man]

the beatles are pretty good and did help to revolutionize music

but they're so far from the best band ever that it is ludicrous


that's so def black sabbath

[Syobon]

If you're after a girl for over a year and there isn't any sign you'll make some progress soon it just isn't going to happen dudes.

[YCobb]

I like the Beatles' songs almost without exception, but I would never call them the best.

That spot's reserved for masters like My Chemical Romance
