Well, hopefully you're all reading this because I love having each and every one of your support!
From the time I first made a dA to my approaching high school career as an art student, I have grown and changed as an artist. These changes have been for the good, and you, my watchers, are what kept me going in all the ups and downs of my Middle School life.
I sincerely hope you'll continue to follow me, to help me better my technique and to continue our friendship, be us online acquaintances or best friends in real life (:iconilovethevillain::iconkitestringklepto:) to the best friends I've ever had the pleasure of knowing thanks to the internet (:iconshadowcatskey:) because I value each and every one of you.

I am finally moving accounts. My new account has been created, you can find it here: :iconnyxfalcon:

Requests on the account are open, and of my watchers from this account and anyone on my friends list gets first priority. I hate to be a stickler, but I am involved in a lot of organizations that hold events over the summer so please nothing too big. I'd love to make you all 500x500 images and also give them to you as avatars, but you are welcome to request anything of a similar caliber. During Thanksgiving and Christmas, I will likely offer much fancier requests, so stick around!

Just so you don't cry art thief, all the art on this account will also be published to my scrapbook on :iconnyxfalcon:

Will I still use this account? Definitely.
Will I upload more art onto this account? I doubt it.
Will I have all of you as watchers and friends? That's your choice, but it's been a good run.

Thank you for everything. Let's keep in touch.

So, I'm here to say goodbye, my watchers, all 19 of you.

























Haha, I'm just creating a new account. I'm honestly quite tired of this one. For one, it was created by my mother for me as I was too young to have on in 2007 so it uses her birthday; and for two, I am no longer, nor have I been for the past year and a half AT LEAST obsessed with GIR.

I just need your opinion...
I can't decide between two names.

Which do you prefer? NyxFalcon or aWonderousSpecimen (the name of my Tumblr, by the way ;) )

Well, yesterday was the LAST day of Middle School for me. There are people I'll miss, specifically one person who is never allowed out of her own house or the Chinese school (ilovethevillain) But hey, I'll be creepin' on her High Schools dances and sports games and other extracurriculars so I can see her and my best friend Andrea~
So I'm going to a notoriously bad high school that habrored a kid who killed a cop. I also went to Elementary school with said cop-killer, so whatever.
In case you haven't guessed, that schools colors are Blue and Yellow. The mascot is a Gladiator. I'm not going to a ghetto school just for adventure though:
PCCA is a renowned magnet program that features core tracks in visual arts, dance, chorus, band, performance theatre, technical theatre, and musical theatre.
125 kids are accepted each year for all of those tracks combined.
I auditioned (no lottery system, I got in on skill :B) for Technical Theatre and Visual Arts and was accepted to both of them. I chose visual arts.
The awesome part is that it's not for starving artists. Every PCCA student has to maintain a B average, take all honors classes, and earn a Bright Futures scholarship to stay in the program. I'm so excited to be around people with some freaking goals.
PCCA's colors are Black and White. Their mascot is apparently a pair of cherubs, as that's the seal that appears on every PCCA document.  


So I am a blue, yellow, black, and white Lady Battle Cherub(s).

I should draw that.

_____SO, woo, yeah. My school state is doing this thing called 'FCAT.' Kids like to whine and call it the Florida Child Abuse Test because it's 'sooo hard.' Since I am being subjected to this, well, I wouldn't call it torture (not by a longshot) but this nuisance, I really feel like I can rant along with me, because despite how easy these standardized tests are, they're sucking up my time I could be doing something rather than sitting in a classroom with kids throwing pretzels at each other and calling our poor teacher an ox for sending them out.

_____Yeah, I guess sitting around is not very typical for testing, but seriously, we're given seventy minutes and that time is taken advantage of in so many negative ways, I.e. the pretzel throwing and just plain rudeness. I'm going to assume the sheer weight of paperwork was the only thing holding my proctor back form invalidating half of my room. But I would have loved to see her do it >:

_____The most terrible, insulting aspect of the FCAT is its uselessness. Okay, so, it does sort of show Florida which schools are teaching to State Standards more accurately, but as for individual progress? It's a bust. All it does is prove what is already obvious by class schedules: which kids are smarter than others. Being one of the high-scoring group I shouldn't complain, FCAT scores helped me get into PCCA (in addition to a stacked portfolio, if my adoring friends speak the truth /conceit) but when I'm supposedly taking geometry honors in my eighth grade year, for the last month or so we've put our lessons on pause for FCAT review. When we restart, we'll undoubtedly have to waste more time reviewing our geometry material and I'll just have to sit through that brain-numbing task. I get it, triangles can be similar sometimes. The FCAT does not help a student find out if they are succeeding in THE CLASSES THEY ARE ENROLLED IN. Instead, the FLDoE will discover if we can read box-and-whisker plots. I hate those pointless things.


So yeah, that's it. A student enrolled in the bets classes available in middle school's perspective on the FCAT. Yeah, so relevant to your lives, am i right?
So as for your lives, my wonderful watchers, how's it going?
:D

Sorry to leave y'all hanging, but I was accepted into a magnet art high school!!!
