Why I've Been Absent from the Community recently

 Oh hi there, I bet you forgot who I was! ;)

Well, if you didn't ''notice'', I've been pretty absent from Blogger. It goes the same for my other social media too. I'll let you guys guess what the reason is.

:clock ticks:

SCHOOL!
:awkward crying:

The ''posting on afternoons'' plan was going totally fine until Tuesday. I felt extremely lazy so I decided I'd just watch a heck ton of anime. When I was done watching the anime on my computer, I felt really sick. Theeeeen, I realized I had a huge test. Of course, I felt too dizzy to even open a book and read it, so I put the work off to at least 9o clock. Here's where things get wrong... I realized I had a ton of homework with the test! I absolutely panicked. Being the awkward crybaby that I am, I... started crying... My parents saw me crying and gave me a thousand lectures about procrastinating and how I shouldn't be on the computer. First off, I was sick, my brain stopped working so it's not a surprise I would forget my work. I totally don't blame my parents. I didn't make the sickness as apparent as how much it deserved to be. Things worked out since I explained to my teacher why I couldn't give the test. I'm not usually a bad student so she was kind enough to spare me this one time.
On Wednesday, while coming home from school, I realized I had the flu. This time, I didn't go on the computer and spent that time napping as my parents had told me. I woke up at around 4 PM and finished my homework quickly. Then, that flu strikes again. This time, it was worse. I could barely stand up without feeling like my bones are crushing into a million pieces. I had to force coughs to get rid of the weird feeling in my throat so I was scared that my parents would think I'm faking. This time, they were understanding though. Fun fact; My dad was the more understanding one here. Surprise! It's usually my dad who doesn't treat me too sweetly.  Anyways, I REALLY wanted to go on Animal Jam and post on Thursday, but I barely got up from my bed. If you think I'm exaggerating, well I guess I am, but I'm pretty weak and being sick literally ruins my life.

I had a thought on Wednesday, which I'm possibly going to be applying from now on. How about not going on the computer when I know I have school work to do? My mid-term exams are starting from the 14th of December. I'll be back on the 23rd! I promise I'll be active when Winter break comes. I hope it's okay if I stay inactive til' then. Sorry! I just feel like it's better for my studies. By the way, you'll probably not hear a lot from me after this post, so, just saying... If you see me online in Winter Break, please feel free to come and talk to me in my den. I'd try my best to attend any AJ parties that might turn up. I want this Winter to be like old times when I'd just hang out with my friends on AJ.


I'm sorry for putting so much IRL stuff in this post. I just want you all to know why I won't be here for long.
Bye! :D

Things in AJ that I'm Thankful for!

Oh hello there. It is I, the leader of the kawaii-ness clan. Nice to see you here. Let's all be kawaii kittens together.
I'm weird.

Since Thanksgiving is coming soon, I decided to share with you all 5 things in AJ that I'm really thankful for. I don't celebrate Thanksgiving, but it would be boring not to at least get in the spirit. :( Please know that all this is my own opinion and not every jammer likes the things I like.

1. Buddies

I bet you already knew I was gonna add this. Buddies are so important to me that it's hard to explain it in simple sentences. I hope you understand, but I don't have any real friends in real life. Online friends are the only people I can call ''real'' friends. All of you are so supportive, helping and friendly to me! I swear I would've quit Animal Jam by now if I didn't have buddies. I'm so glad Animal Jam is a MMOG which means it has players from around the world to be friends with. :D

2. The community

You'll be surprised hearing this, but I love the AJ community so much! Of course there are scammers, hackers and bullies but aside from them, the AJ community is such an amazing community to be in. Literally all of the jammers (minus bad jammers) are really friendly and it takes a second to become friends. The famous jammers make amazing content on social media for us to enjoy. 

3. The art

AJHQ added masterpieces and the community EXPLODED like a huge creative explosive. Just check out all the beautiful masterpieces being made everyday just by using the simple Animal Jam Art Studio. I live for art. The illustrators at AJHQ are amazing people too. Take Taylor Maw for example. He's super talented and he's kind to his followers. :D I love that guy so much. :D

4. They're super fair to non-members!

Okay, okay, I agree that the update yesterday caused a lot of controversy because of NOTHING being for non-members. I'm pretty mad about it too, but if you put that a side, AJ is much fairer to NMs than any other online game. If you don't agree, I challenge you to play Club Penguin for a day and than come back. See the difference? Animal Jam has so much for Non members and treats them okay too. :)

5.  Adventures, lore, alphas

Right after I started watching Julian2's conspiracy videos, I was surprised. Not because of his theories, but because of all the little hidden things AJHQ has put in the game. For one thing, I love how all of it is inspired by the real life. Ever seen Zios? His mask is inspired by an old god. I'm sure other lore in Jamaa is inspired by many other cultures in the world too. It's really awesome!
-------------------------------------------------------

Animal Jam is an amazing game. The animations, environments, music and lore are so well made and the people behind the making of the game work so hard to provide us with the best features. I'm thankful for Animal Jam overall. :D

Well, those were just 5 things I love in Animal Jam. I might do a part 2 since I actually had 10 things planned out, but I'm too lazy to do all of them in one day.

--------------------------------------------------------
I'll see you all later! Bye! :D

Reviewing AJ Blogs: Animal Jam Spring and Animal Jam Jumble!

Hellllllo people! ;D What's up?

I tried to be cool.
I'm not. *Mad World by Gary Jules plays in background*

Today I had an idea of randomly picking out 2 blogs from my ''Other Blogs'' tab using an online randomizer and I'll review these blogs! Wow, much great idea, much good, much nice. (Sorry, I like memes.)
The blogs that the online thingy picked were The Animal Jam Spring (Penguin always seems to win in these online pickers. What's your sorcery? XD) and the Animal Jam Jumble. This'll be fun. Unlike my recent posts, I haven't planned this one out at all. O,O

The Animal Jam Spring

The Animal Jam Spring is run by my great old friend, Penguin55544. This blog is 2 years old by the time I'm writing this. Starting with templates, he has amazing ones. They are all themed and neatly arranged. He does daily item posts. He also does other AJ-related stuff which are always extremely fun to read. The posts are amazingly written. The music player perfectly matches with the template. He often adds Youtube videos at the end of posts to keep us entertained. 

I'm glad I found his blog near the time it was made. The posts are awesome!

Another thing I want to say to Penguin is that it's so amazing that he manages to post a lot despite having a tough school schedule. I barely see a Blogger posting so much in the school season. Bravo! :D

Animal Jam Jumble 

This blog, run by another friend of mine, Lostfairy, is SO fun-packed. It's like opening a giant goodie-bag filled with happiness. :') The header, made by AwesomePanda, is super eye-catching. Lostfairy's posts include theories to artwork. She also posts the RIMs released in Jamaa. Her funny little post intros make me laugh in real life. I love seeing her masterpieces in posts. She's the author of the great story ''Jamaasian High''. It's about us Bloggers going to High School! How cool?! Lostfairy is also a very sweet person over all. She makes me smile. :D 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hopefully, you guys enjoyed this post. If you think it's just a bunch of random positive adjectives written altogether, you're wrong! What I said in this post is the actual truth. 

If you want a chance for your blog to be reviewed by me, please make sure your blog is in the ''Other Blogs'' tab. If not, comment the URL and name in the comment box and I'll put you in there. :D

---------------------------------------------------

Wondering why I sound much more positive in this post? It's because I didn't have to go to the prison that is school. XD 

Well, bye for now! Stay pawesome! :D

Animal Jam Blogger Election Result

Hello people of the human species. < I tried.   How's your day been? I wanted this post to be long and special but I have a really bad cold at the moment so I couldn't think of something great.

As promised, I'll be revealing the winner of the Blogger election.
It's embarrassing that I got 0 votes, despite being the one who made it. XDDD
Before I announce the result; I want to say that I'm extremely disappointed with those who complained about not being a candidate. The only Bloggers that I'm friends with (and forgot to put in there) were CanineClaw AJ and Skywatcher AJ. (Even they didn't complain!)  The others who complained made me cringe so hard because I didn't even know them and they're complaining. WOW! Bravo! I know how hard and saddening it is to be left out, but if I got left out in something made by a stranger, I swear I wouldn't mind. Please don't take offense with what I said. I just felt like ranting... XD

Moving on, here are the results:

Looks like Nafaria9 has won the election! Congratulations! :DDD :confetti: If you'd like to, you can write a victory speech on your blog. XDDD I guessed she'd win right when I made the poll. :) Also, congrats to Snowyclaw and Penguin55544 for being close enough.

I guess since Naffy won...

That might happen. 

Don't kill me Naffy, pls.

Also, a big thanks to Penguin and Nafaria for sharing the polls on their blogs. It really helped gain more voters. ;D

--------------------------------

I'll do my best to make more fun stuff like this election in the future. If (hopefully) I stay in this amazing community until late 2017, I'll try to do this election again.

I might be adding more facts about me in the ''More About Me'' tab so check it out if you'd like! :)

That's a wrap. Again, sorry for the short post. Bye! :D

Reacting to old me: Art (send help)

:puts shades on:
COOL PURPLE IN DA HOUSE!
Sorry.
Hello people of Saturn. I hope you're enjoying Donald Trump as your president. (haha, he sucks) You guys should've voted for me, but you learn from mistakes, right? I'm not American so I'm safe from him. :puts shades back on:
I don't understand politics.
Also, if you're wondering where I've been, imagine a huge rock with ''school'' written on it. Now imagine a little ant called purplestarclub. The rock is rolling and squishes the poor ant completely. < And that's the story of my life. Great story! :clap clap:
I wanted to make a post about Animal Jam, but I'm lazy so yeah.
I'll react to my old art and die from the shame. :D :prepares grave: Let's get ready!

ART THEFT! :screams: I referenced a clip-art of a dog and wow. BEAUTIFUL ANATOMY. I totally wouldn't be creeped out if this creature came into my room and stole my soul at night. :D

When you don't know how to take a picture correctly, life sucks. 

I feel like this was taken straight out of a garbage trash. XDD I think the dirt behind was just me trying to ''shade'' with a pencil. Can someone go back in time and kill old me?

I feel so ashamed since this was done in late 2015 which isn't too old. This shouldn't exist. What even is that creature? XD

Pink penguin: MUAHAHAHA Take this poisoned snowball

Blue penguin: Yay! I'm gonna die!!!

Snowman: I hate my life!

                                                     Reindeer: I don't have a life.

:dies from laughter: This isn't physically possible...

So, I tried to make it cute. You all can see how much I failed on doing that! The wings, oh my goodness. XDD

If someone can find out which animal this is, I'll give them a million dollars. Also, the signature ''purplestarclub!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-)''. MUCH CRINGE! UGH.

wHAT

Please, help me. WHAT IS THIS CRAP?! Was I really this evil when I was young? I can't believe I drew this. I think it's time to go inside that grave.

But wait, hell doesn't end here!

PLS STOPPPPP.

STAWPIT

''we need your help'' BECAUSE WE HAVE SERIOUS DISEASES WITH OUR BODIES!

That's a balloon. How much helium has she been swallowing? I don't even know. All I know is that my hands were awful back then.

-------------------------------

You guys don't know how much courage it took to actually post all of my old drawings here again. I challenge every artist to react to their old art and be surprised. 

By posting this, I don't mean that I've already reached pro levels of art. I just wanna see how much I've improved since then. My style has changed for sure. 

-----------------------------------------

If you haven't read my last post, please do. I want a lot of people to vote on THIS poll. It's an election thing for AJ Bloggers. Thanks if you vote. :D

-----------------------------------

I just wanted to say, I feel like my posts are getting cringier every time. I think I just forgot how to post after my hiatus from posting in Spring and Summer. Is it just me or are my posts sounding different or messier? I think I rush them a bit.

-----------------------------------

Fun fact: I actually divided this post for two days. I worked on half of it on Wednesday and half of it is being written today, Thursday. 

Well, that's all for today. Peace out! :D

The official AJ Blogger president voting thingy

Hi people. I swear I'll write a real post tomorrow or Friday but for now, you need to vote on this.

https://strawpoll.de/73wcya8

Let's see who's the president for the Blogger community. XD This will be fun. Try not to vote for yourself because it will make the system go wonky. I sound so serious here when I shouldn't.

All the AJ Youtubers are getting these polls so why should our community stand back? Also, I forgot so many good bloggers but we will have to compromise with what we've got here. I was in a hurry since I had to do my homework. If you complain about not being here, that's immature. 

Well, bye!

Little things AJHQ should add in the game!

Hello my little kittens. It is I, Purplestarclub. You should loaf me, I'm your leader. I have questionable post intros. I'm sorry for not posting on Friday when I was supposed to. If you haven't guessed by now, my new internet isn't connected in the best way so it shuts down when it wants.

Today, I'm sharing a few of my ideas for Animal Jam. These aren't big ideas like, ''Add weather, add day/night, add dancing potatoes etc.'' These are just tiny fixes/features AJHQ could easily add into the game with little effort. I'm sorry if one of your ideas is in here, I read so many posts with ideas that I forgot which ones are taken or not. But hey, great minds think alike, am I right? XD (Jk, I'm not a great mind.)

1. A den item shop in Hot Cocoa Hut!

So, we have the clothing shop in here, a den item shop would be perfect too! Especially since December is almost here and some cozy den furniture would be awesome. I'm just really waiting for winter. I have so many IRL things planned for it! :D Back to topic; making den items probably take a lesser time producing than the clothing since AJHQ has to draw the clothes on EACH animal to release it. ;O

2. A History button in Settings.

I got this idea from somewhere on Instagram, but I forgot their username. I'm sorry! 

This ''history'' button would show all your recent activity on Animal Jam, for example: 10:30 PM: Traded Bow and arrows for Tiger plushie, 11:00 PM: Bought 12-month membership, 11:30: Bought these items :insert images of items: ..... and other stuff like that! :D  This feature might take a lot of time to add and also have ups and downs but I really like the idea!

3. New Item Notification

Isn't it absolutely amazing how AJHQ releases new items every day? YES, It is! The problem is, sometimes they are released in different shops and it's hard to find them. We should have a little button on top which shows the new item and where it can be bought. I'm making an exception for Rare Item Mondays just because, uh, eh.

4.  Fully locking your den.

Don't you hate when you're doing something embarrassing or silly in your den and a buddy randomly pops up? Well, you can lock your den, but only from non-buddies. I seriously want AJHQ to make it an option where you can lock everyone from coming to your den. I often roleplay with my storages and things can get weird there. A buddy seeing that will turn my AJ world upside down. This feature will eventually be released because of the high demand. 

5. Being able to see old Jamaa Journals.

All of us have had those hiatuses from AJ and you skip quite a lot of updates because of your break. So, a button which shows a few of the older updates would be really cool. I know it's useless since many Youtubers and Bloggers already post about it, but when I was a new jammer, all I did was play AJ on the internet. Yup, I had no Blogger account, Youtube was banned, I didn't have my I-pad to go on Instagram and all that stuff.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Going off topic, I'm listening to the song Clarity after a bunch of years and I'm getting EXTREME flashbacks from my Animal Jam experience in 2014. It was a great year, I discovered half of my Blogger friends in 2014. :') Now, the community literally feels like it's almost dead. Invent a time machine already, someone?!

-----------------------------

I'm sorry, I just throw whatever I'm thinking in my blog posts. It's like an actual diary except someone is seeing it and you feel okay with it. Uhhhhhhhhhhhh.

^It's amazing what music can do to a person's feeling. I was writing alright and as soon as I turned that song on, I'm all dramatic and stuff.^

Well, bye! I'll see you all later. :D

-Peace. <3

Reacting to old Purple: ''Banners...?''

Hi my young Earthlings! How's your day going so far? Mine was great because my school announced that they are having a Halloween party this Friday!!! You might be like, ''Eh... It's just a Halloween party, calm down!''. WELL YOU'RE WRONG! My country doesn't celebrate Halloween so my school is hosting one after 4 freaking years. *clap clap* I'm not in for socializing but I get to wear a costume, and being spoopy (it's a meme, so don't try to use your Grammar Nazi skills on me) is awesome. Also, sorry for not posting on Monday. My wi-fi went crazy after Sunday.
I'm actually extremely sorry for making these posts IRL- related. I just don't feel like my real-life friends would give me a weird face if I told them these things. :')
Anyways, sorry for going out of topic. Today I'll be reacting to signatures that I made for my friends in 2014. This was when I was a very cringey 10/11 (idk) year old. Obviously what I'm trying to say here is, ''These suck!''.  I haven't given them another look yet so I'll be as surprised by the awkwardness as you guys will be. Yay!11111111!!!!!!!

*intense puking* Ms Paint is a GREAT editor, highly recommend it. *intense sarcasm* Shimmerstarz27 was my best buddy back in the days. Our friendship was THE BOMB. How much did I make you cringe with the ''you are a shining star''?

What did I make...? It's a bunny in the air, a creepy sun (that is just a kidnapper dressed as a sun), beautiful grass and absolutely amazing writing skills. I was at ArtyMis level back then. I'm dying of sarcasm right now. 

''A GUIDE FOR ANIMAL JAM'' For god's sake, STOP! Call 911, old Purple should go to jail right now.

Like I did when I made this. What was I thinking?

:cough cough: :laugh laugh: :cough cough: What is this crap?

Why does that sparkle on the left have a leaf coming out of it. ''Always be yourself'', it's like I was giving a lecture to my buddy through a friken' signature. :internal screams:

Please learn how to punctuate, Purple! Nafaria9, I know what horrors you had to go through when I gave you this piece of trash.

Purplestarclub, bye bye. Handle your puke for later.

''meaning'', ''MEANING'', ''MEANINGGGG?!''

I should've wrote something instead of that, like: There f in the word ''life'' stands for friendship...  *dramatic music plays in the background*

I'm out. There's too much cringe. Sorry. No. NO. NOOOO.

----------------------------------------------------------

This post is actually very untidy. I'll try to make an AJ post on Friday. Also, it's November already and man, it's getting cold in my country! The average weather here is like Arizona's but not this November, apparently. Have you been feeling the weather change a bit too? I might be exaggerating, but it's so different from last year. Let's not turn this blog into My Little Weather Discussions now. 

Bye! :D

*Yes, this sig was edited by me in early 2015. People can improve, can't they?

P.S: I used to call signatures ''banners'' way back then so don't get confused with the title, please!
