*Akante

Omg!! I'm soooo happy! After 9 fucking years, Im finally graduatin!! Ive been in my crummy, broke-butt school for nine years! And after this Friday, it's OVER!!! I'm moving on to High School!! Hurray, I'm so excited... yet so sad.
It's that strange feeling, and only those who have felt it can know what it is like. I'm scared... My BFF is leaving me, to go to a different high school. We rarely see each other enough as it is, but now that we won't even see each other in school? That's too terrible to think of. We've been best friends since 5th grade, and we claim to be twins seperated at birth. We love all the exact same things, except I'm usually more assertive and dominent, and she's hesitant on making some choices. Yeah, I'm totally better! Just kidding katie!! I love you to death and beyond!!!

And so, after being with my friends for so many years, we will be leaving each other. Friday seems like a long way off, but we all know it's going to come quickly. I don't really want to leave I guess, not really. My teacher is amazing, and I'm scared to have other teachers, because I know none of them can be as caring or understanding as my teacher. I'm usually a slacker, as of late, and my parents tell me that high school is going to eat me alive, so that's another aspect. And with that saying, High School changes people... I'm scared to know what will become of me and my friends who are going to the same high school. Will we stay friends? Cling to each other in the hallways seeing as we know no one else? Or will one of us become more popular? Will cliques split us up? Will we become enemies? I don't know, it's terrifying.

I have so much expected from me, and I'm scared that I might not live up to it. I usually take critisim hard when it is given from family or teachers, and I know that they don't know that. Should I tell them? Will they figure it out on their own and tend to it? Or will they not give a sh!t? I'm literally scared to death, I haven't a clue what to do....

ANYWAYS!!!!
Onto the contest. It's simple, kinda. If you are wondering, my old contest is officially closed since it's been up for literally, MONTHS, and there haven't been any entries. Don't feel too bad, I didn't really expect anyone to turn it in once the first deadline passed....
So, here we go!

Objective:
Create a picture, no duh! It has to be of what I'm feeling now, my feelings that I described. It can be happy, sad, excited, nervous, or unsure. I don't care. if you caught a drift of an emotion while reading the passage above, use it. It must include one of my fursonas!! That's Akante or Fiamme. You may include one or more of your characters if you wish, but I'd sorta like the main focus to be me! (I'm so selfish, lol)

Rules:
- Can be digital or traditional
- Up to 2 entries per person
- MUST include either Akante or Fiamme, preferable not both
- If you can't decide between my two characters, you may do two entries
- Please have it in by the deadline, or as soon as you can.
- I will only extend the deadline ONCE!! And only by 2 weeks
- No flaming other's entries
- No using past art/other's art for your entry
- Have Fun!

Prizes:
There will be only a 1st and 2nd place!! So work hard to get there.
The prize for 1st Place is a full picture of any of your characters with my style of a backround. (See Sero Trade as an example)
The prize for 2nd Place is just a colored picture of any one of your characters, no backround.
PERHAPS I will do simple sketches for anyone who enters... Depends on whether or not I feel generous. BUT YOU MUST ENTER FOR ME TO DO THIS
