Here I am, almost approaching 17. The age is within reach of my lengthy arms. I'm nearly college bound. I have big plans for how I'm going to take on this world outside of my school years, and it's all going to start with a pencil on a paper. Animation is a complicated and absolutely insane concept to be taken as a career path. It's one of the most competitive things you'll ever get involved in, and unless you find a breakthrough to make it big, you're just barely going to be slipping over the poverty line with your pay roll. But ever since the 4th grade, I could never see myself doing anything but animating. 7 years later, I'm ready to take on the challenge, and sit through the pain and frustration and trial and error that's going to come with it. Getting an early start will benefit me in multiple ways. I'll be motivated to do productive things and hopefully break my procrastinative habits. I'll learn something new that I've only been able to dream of doing as a child. I will have prior experience as opposed to those who start at a college level, giving me a priceless advantage over my competition. It will also do something really undesirable... I'm going to have to heavily cut BC from my daily lifestyle. The distractions it brings to me is absolutely hazardous to my independence. Besides, I'm constantly checking the forums nonstop just to search for even a single alert. I don't even know why I still hang around on these forums. I've practically lost my relevance to the server itself after school started, and all I've really been able to provide is jokes. I don't do anything that's significant. I've lost my desire to build. I've lost the passion to run huge server movements. I've lost my ability to suggest elaborate ideas. And most recently, I've lost my wondrous gift to create fully functioning comics, which is the one thing that has been keeping me at such high respect. I just don't want to do much of anything anymore. Anyway I'm not "leaving" by any means, because it's a well known fact that every person that "leaves", comes back. And you'll probably see me tomorrow at 5 AM checking my account. But I'm forcefully prioritizing myself more than ever, before I get stuck in situations that I don't want to be in because I wasted my time trying to get likes for projects that I ended up taking nowhere. I hope you understand, that if a seclude myself from this server, I can start to open up a lot of my time to actually get these small rough ideas into something much more significant. I'd like to thank you for supporting my works and ideas. Without you, Napkin would mean nothing more to me, than a cheesy username. You're the reason he exists as a successful character now. I hope I get this devious 8-ball his well deserved fame, as I work hard to get laughter from children and adults alike. Remember, your brain is big and beautiful, and it's where the imagination starts. Let that imagination get you places you've never even thought of. Let it bring you failure, let it brings you success, and watch the magic happen. "I am an 8 ball! I am great! I sit through all the hateful hate! And they all say I'm a living nightmare! But I don't care! Not my problem! it's their's!"~ Napkins chant of ignorance; Elip and Gam (2016)
I wish you all the success for your future! I hope you can realize your dreams and have lots of fun while doing it because a job that you love is the best job. Thanks for everything you have done for this server and I hope you will come back some time in the far future at least <3
Animations may be tedious beyond belief, but the end result is beyond satisfying. I wish you great luck, and determination. And since youll be busy on work above comics, and your own bussiness, i guess we will be left with my comics. Oh joy. Oh right, and happy early birthday! May the 8 ball prevail!
I wish you the best of luck, Napkin! Your presence will be missed on the server by everyone. Even though you and Kash are always teasing me, I am hopeful that you'll be able to follow your dreams in animation. And now... It's animations or RIOTTTTTT
smh, I never got my comic. kidding Good luck, Mr 8Ball, you've got a real talent. I hope you do great in real life.
I honestly hope you hit it big time and get a good career in this. You deserve it, your skill is amazing without a doubt. If you ever need help editing wise or audio wise etc. im always on skype <3 or if you ever wanna talk Good luck Napkin and have a nice time at collage and animating <3 The fact you posted that as a joke pisses me off
Easily one of my closest friends on the server. It's going to be sad seeing you go, but cow will always be a friend :3 :3 :3
Bro, I hope you have a great time in your future. you literally inspired me to do comics. I wish you the best of luck.
It's good that you're able to find something even better and even more time-consuming than BC. Hope you do even better there than you have here! Go for your dreams!
I wish you the best of luck in your career! I hope it works out for ya bud, I'm sure you'll do great! Reach for the stars my friend!
I'm not even leaving you chumps I'm just saying thanks and explaining the reasons behind my attempts at resisting BC but thanks for your lovely comments, anyway I got a lot of work done today as I tried to resist forums and I'm making a progress tracking thread. I also can't risk Kash's bootycheek taking my kingly spot.
