I never feel right asking for money. It feels greedy. My dad offered me $250 for Christmas because my sisters gifts equated to that much. I said, 'surprise me', and listed off things I liked, like music, art, clothing, etc. But he still just gave me to money straight. I never even got to buy myself a Christmas present since I had to take my cat to the vet. vov;

;o;~ You're not allowed to do that. <3

A certain Kentu still needs to get certs. *spies the lurking purple name*

My brothers always give me gift cards usually. x'3
I guess I don't care to seem greedy. x'D

Aw, why not? ; o; <3

x'3

It depends on the person, I guess? XD I always put thought into my gifts, even if it's something cheap and simple, or something I made with my hands. I just like feeling like the other person made that effort too. Otherwise it feels like I'm saying, 'I don't care what you want to give me, I want money because you suck ];<'. lol. XDD

I like making gift baskets. >w<;;

I feel bad, though. My mother's birthday is Monday, and my family is very poor, so we went to walmart and scrounged up just enough to buy a little present (about 20 dollars, and SHE paid it T_T;; ), but the selection was awful. I kept looking at things and remarking that walmart had gone downhill and the clothing was ugly, but then hushing myself because a lot of old ladies were in that section, attempting to shop for family and I didn't want to discourage them. They try hard. A few times I even wanted to go over and offer to help them, but I had to go with my sisters.

And because I always feel bad/undeserving of any gifts. xD;;;;; You can ask Matt, I become very flustered and embarrassed or guilty. I LOVE to GIVE gifts, though.

And my box of chocolates Alex~ > o>

Oh! And I want to draw some stuff for you for your birthday, Cryssu! o wo

Such cute names. >w< <3333

I'll poke Matt to start certing. Lazy fox. XD

And I'll update the front page eventually. D': *lazy kitty*

But nope, no drawing~! You're forbidden. ]; Even if Kent art is amazing. <3

Really? They feel so uncreative to me. XD But thanks~ o wo <33

You guys aren't lazy~ You're just taking your time~ 8D <3

Awwws! ; A; But I reeeaaaallly want to! ; O; You deserve lots of artsu~

@Cryssu: lol I've never thought about that. x'3
I guess I'm not really good at putting feeling into my gifts. ; o;

Oh? I love gift baskets~ *^*

I'm worse, I don't usually buy presents for my parents at all. ; o;
lol The only things I like to get from Walmart are Pokemon cards and video games. x'3

Well, I think you deserve them!~ D<
So I'll be getting you a present some way~ >3

I can't believe I'm so old and getting married. @[email protected] 2010 is scary, lol.

Kentu: Nuu~, I like them. X3 I think they're applicable. >O>

LOL, okay, we'll call it that. ;D

T~T~ Only if you want to....? *feels bad* xD;;; <3333 The Kent art I already have makes me smile every time I look at it. >w<

Hadsie: Aww, I'm sure you are~. It depends on how close you are to the person that you spend more time on the gift, to me, too. XD I'm sure you can use your telepathy on Kent to get the perfect present. >O>; Even if it's a gift card?

Hehe, maybe we can make one for you two one day.

We do most of our shopping at walmart or the cheap local mall. ^^;; My mom is a single parent who can't legally work, nor can I, so we've always been under the poverty line and had to save really hard to buy things we like. My dad is a bit better off, but can't afford to support himself and always give us child support on time because he works from job to job. I hate contract work, it's never a for sure thing. You could work for six months, then be out of work six months. =/

;o; If you insist. T____T; <333

lol You're not old. XD

I'm happy my artsu makes you smile~ <333333

How do you type sooo quickly Cryssu!? *ish amazed* O:

Well, both my mother and Matt's have been asking me to basically be pregnant by Christmas. So I feel old? @[email protected];;; They have the same first name, LOL. Wanda. It's such an uncommon name, yet they both have it, and they're both obsessed with having grandchildren.

Yessu~. I'm amazed at how in character the pieces you made me, are, actually. Most artists tend to do lovely renditions, but the personalities are wrong, you know? >[email protected] And you're like, 'thank you, it's beautiful' and then in your head, 'but it's not what I wanted. @[email protected];'

Do I type quickly? xD I never noticed. I know I'm the fastest typist in my family, but I figured that was normal. I have very slim fingers (but very small hands). Amusingly, I don't type with my hands on homerow.

I type sort of like one finger typing, I only use three fingers on either hand instead of all five, and whenever I'm not typing my hand is in my lap, but I type faster and more proficiently than most who type 'properly', so whatever works for you.

@Cryssu: lol I suppose I do that with Kent. x'3

I'd love that~ *^* <33

I think I might just dedicate my next art contest to you~ > w> <3

Okay, guys, go back to page 11 and refresh and your certs should all be properly named now!
I'm a genius who killed photoshop last night without saving the cert file, so I just now had to remake them and I hope Hadsie doesn't mind me shortening to Hads on the cert this time around to keep from having to shift the plate placement. >3> If you want it back the other way I can do it, though. <33

lol Thanks, Matt~ <3
And I don't mind, it's fine that way~ :'3

Do you have twin telepathy? O: <33

And glee, then. >w< One day when Matt and I have our new apartment we'll mail you something. :heart: I'd love that.

Eh? D:

Also, courtesy of Matt, this is scary... D: pokemonfieldtrip.jpg (image)

Matt: Lawl to your post edit.

@Hadsie: Kay, I'm glad x3 <3

@Cryssu: It's just so very 'whut'. D:

>>; You leave my edit alone~


Wake up, little threaddu~ ;o; ♥

@Cryssu: lol Not really, but we do think almost exactly the same and understand each other's expressions easily. x'3

I'll be waiting for it then~ o wo <3

I'm thinking of making another art contest soon~ o wo
And I'd like to dedicate it to you~ :'D <3

lol Uh, what an interesting picture. o wo;

Thanks for posting again so I could, sweetheart. :heart:

Okay...

ANNOUNCEMENT:

So you're interested in our breedables, but don't have the funds? (You're out there, right? D: We're lonely and I worked hard~.)

NEW ALTERNATIVE WAY TO EARN:

Crys gets lonely, really easily. It doesn't help that Matt can't spend valentines with her this year because he'll be at work and I believe my back up valentine Iseh will be as well. ;o;~

Keep me company and be rewarded for good behaviour!

For every fifteen posts you make after page 17, you will be rewarded 7 more cookies or red packets! Please remember to make a note in your posts (preferably in a quote box so you aren't padding the post) to number them and tell me what you want your points to go towards!

But Crys, I'm not sure I can do that!

Really? Is it so hard to make a few posts? >: Anyway, there is ANOTHER WAY. Those of you who resize your certs, and put them in your sig along with a link to this thread to advertise our breedables will get an extra 5 points. <33

Already over 50 points for both your valentine and your packet but want to keep going? Earn a second pet for you, or surprise a friend!

Remember, you can update your pet to the next stage at any time, but they won't grow until after midnight!


Edit: Hadsie: Aww, well that's cool~! I know they say a lot of twins can read each other minds, and it's always seemed so romantic to me. Not in the love sense, more in the romanticism of fantasy, way. :3

Hehe, we'd have to include a pack of pokemon cards. >w<

But why me? T_______T;;;

It's a scary picture. XD I don't understand it.

Oh!~ I so want to put Azure in my siggy~ o wo
-goes to do so-

Pokemon cards, definitely~ :drool: <3
That would definitely make my day~ x'3 <33

Because I love you~ o wo <3333

lol Me either. x'D

@Cryssu - Oh my. XD When do you want to have children? o 3o
lol That's weird. I guess it was fate? X3

lol I make it my duty to make sure I make OCs in character~ >: Especially yours~ <333

Yes, you type very quickly. @ [email protected] I'm only able to write that quickly when I'm not thinking of what I'm writing. XD
And if I don't make any mistakes.
And I can't believe that you don't even type properly! *ish very amazed* O8
You should work as a typist or something. XD You'd be perfect as one~

Oh! And I want to put Alex in my siggy~ <3

Sorry my loves, got distracted on webcam. xD <3

Hads: Awww... *o* I appreciate it.

chinese plate - Google Search You can see where I got my inspiration for him, lol. XD

I think pokemon cards make anyone's day. XD And pokemon valentines! <3

;o;~ I love you both toooooo. But I could never accept that.

Some people are crazy. >O>?

Kentu: Matt and I aren't sure. We agreed if we never have any, that's alright, and if we get pregnant, we're equally happy. I'm rather sick and I'll need my ladybits removed in about five years because my cervix is cancerous (and possibly my ovaries are as well?), so my mom wants me to have them now before it's too late and I can't even if I wanted to, but I'm not ready.

And it is fate, I guess. XD

You're so sweet. <333

LOL, well, I can only type if I don't think about it either. When I was setting up this thread I had both video conference on, and music, so it took hours to make the posts because I couldn't concentrate. XDD

Haha, I think I'd get too impatient with dictation. Matt did it for several years at a doctor's office and it sounds menial and hard. D:

Yay for Alex in your sig. Thank you honey. <333 You both get extra points. >w< And I'll give you points for both instead of one because I <333 you. >_>;;

Yes hello, cookies please!

@Cryssu - Ah, I see~ O: Well, we'll see what happens, I suppose~ C:

Really?! How can you type so much without thinking?! O:
lol Concentrating and thinking are two different things though. XD I think. o 3o;

Oh? I'm not sure what the job would entail anyway. X3 It does sound a little boring.

Thank you so much! >w< <333

Oh! Hi, BellyButton~ *waves*

Hi Kent! Hehe :)

I'm an idiot and can't find where it says how to pay for my coookie. :gonk: Do I just donate?

Yeah, I don't think she mentioned that anywhere. XD I donated it~

Ok, whew. I hate it when something is right in front of my face and I can't see it. :oops:

Edit: I think I shall order a packet too!

Yes hello, red packets please!
