[edit: my dog is doing okay now !! lol ] hey yall, im soo sorry but i think i need to take a break from scratch. i might check in every now and then, but ill mostly be gone for some time. ill list some reasons below, but first, for the people i owe dts to, im sorry, im having design block rn and i rlly just need more time. i might post the dts either after my break or sometime during it. 1. alright. so first of all, i just think scratch has been taking up a lot of my time and i want to spend more time with my family and friends irl. i feel like scratch has sorta become an obsession for me?? idk, its the only place where i can share my art bc i dont have any other socials, and ig that sort of pulls me towards it. but its getting to the point where during vacation im thinking "i NEED to check my messages" when i should be doing something else [ like relaxing, its vacation after all lol ] 2. i want to expand my interests and get out and do stuff in the world. yes, i will still be drawing a lot, but i want to change up my art style a bit. i have been experimenting with my style and drawing humans, and its something im proud of. i also have been getting into fashion, and i really like putting together outfits and drawing new ones, so i want to practice that a bit. i also want to do stuff irl more too like going out in nature. i want to start excersizing more as well, even if its just riding my bike around for a bit. 3. my dog. she is showing signs of hip displaysia. shes going through some pain rn, and i want to spend as much time with her as i can there are other reasons, but these are the main ones i have. please respect my descision and give me time <3 thank u all so much for supporting me on my way throughout scratch, i just need a break for now. see yall when i get back <333 /gen /srs
