Before I explain why i'm leaving feel free to press space and view some of my old art when i first started scratch around a year and a half ago! <333 (i'm going to finish all my map parts i have, which is 2 at the moment , before i stop doing maps) (READ ALL TO UNDERSTAND WHY I'M LEAVING) So yes i am officially leaving scratch BUT not completely exactly. Here's an explanation So since iv'e started 6th grade, stuff has gotten wild. The first day i was just your average quite person. But after a couple days i meant more and more people and became as some people know as "popular" in a sense. NO i'm not full of myself and bragging, but all these new friends and everything that's going on, for example drama and boyfriends. I recently got a boyfriend and I care about him so much to even care about anything else anymore. All these expectations that people are giving me now. I know the whole grade basically and it's stressful and I just don't have time for scratch anymore. Also, grades. I have really good grades and i'm planning on keeping that up, and instead of studying, i spend my time on scratch which isn't exactly good for it. Also, I would rather spend time with friends and family then sit inside and draw on a chromebook. It's taking my personal time away and I feel bad about myself doing this instead of enjoying life while i still have it. Don't get me wrong, i love scratch and all the amazing people on here, but i couldn't stay on here forever. I wont be completely gone though, I drop by some times and chat with some people and answer comments, maybe even post a few small projects. But i'll never come completely back.
