‪@ShyGirlMellow‬ tagged anyone to share their hot takes!! And I thought it would be fun, so here are mine!! ✨

1. Vegetables are delicious and everyone should eat them!! 🥕🌟
Like unless you have an allergy or something, eating vegetables is super important and also like they are amazing!! I like them raw or cooked and they don’t need seasoning!! (also broccoli and cheddar is like the best combo ever xD)

2. Gudetama is overrated!!
Like he’s just an egg!! And he’s not even cute!! He’s the most overrated Sanrio character ever!

3. Pineapple on pizza is not weird, it’s the best pizza topping xD
I just ate some today lol!! 🤣

4. Centipedes are scary!! No debate!!
Like I always scream when I see one!! I try to be brave with bugs but they just scare me way too much!! 😖

5. The cereal comes BEFORE the milk, adding it afterwards is crazy!!
I was shocked to learn that some people put the milk first?!? Like huhhh??? 😳😳

6. Clemont is a good replacement for Brock! (Pokémon!!)
Ok so I love Brock!! But in Pokémon X & Y I think they did a perfect job with Clemont!! He’s different from Brock, he’s so dorky and fun and he adds so much to the show!!

7. Ponyo isn’t a very good movie!! (Studio Ghibli)
Ok guys I LOVE Studio Ghibli!! They make some of my favorite movies!! But Ponyo is just underwhelming to me, like the ending made me feel nothing!! I wanted to like it but it’s not for me! 🥺

8. Gaming companies design their controllers bad on purpose!!
They want the controllers to start drifting so you’ll need to buy new ones!! I really think this is true!! 🫢

9. Wonderful PreCure is over-hated!
Okay so if you don’t watch Pretty Cure you won’t get this, But- Lots of people hate it cuz the girls don’t beat up the enemies! But they are animals, so it’s good that they don’t fight them the same way!! Also it had a great plot twist, relatable characters and the cutest romance!! And even some deeper themes!! How can you hate it!?! 💕

10. ‘Where The Wild Things Are’ isn’t a good book!
Like it’s not interesting!! I never liked it!! Why does everyone love it so much? It’s just some kid who’s super bad and mean to his pet (maybe this is why I don’t like it, I love animals so much lol) and he becomes a king in his imagination and stuff and then gets dinner. I LOVE good classic kids books but this one never hit right for me T^T

🌟But anyways those are my hot takes!! I hope they aren’t too harsh!! Haha!! Now I’m tagging some people so they can post theirs!!
(You all don’t have to do it, only if you want to!!) ‪@FrogMothArtz‬ ‪@RainbowNooodlez‬ ‪@dreamiibunnii‬ ​⁠​⁠‪@PaisliePages‬ ‪@HeARTspink1‬ and anyone else who wants to try this!! I didn’t know who to tag this time lol!! I feel like everyone’s already done this so the tags aren’t very creative hahah!

‘Artist Hands’ be like: 😆
I was drawing with marker, so this happened xD I actually have a bit of a storytime about it— 🤣
So, I was drinking tea while doing my everyday half-hour digital drawing session, because as always, I’m working on a future video. But one time as I briefly set my Apple Pencil down to sip the drink, I noticed something- it looked like there was a red mark on the pencil!?! I quickly looked down at my finger, and sure enough, it was COVERED in red marker! One of my markers must’ve been leaking, cuz they are old but my fingers never get covered in the color THIS bad!! So then me and my mom spend like 15 minutes scrubbing at the stain with rubbing alcohol, we don’t get it out 100%, but the mark is super faint and hard to see. So hopefully, it’ll get out sometime soon with regular use.

But the story doesn’t end there— 😳

So me and my mom were about to head out, and before we left, I was in the bathroom to brush h my hair. Once again, I notice something strange- but this time it was on the light switch?!? My mom was able to get out the second pink mark (luckily) but while we were in the car, I looked down at my phone and guess what—
There was a pink mark on THE CASE!!! And so when we got home, I spent like 30 minutes scrubbing at it while watching YouTube, and (I think?) the stain is completely out.

The moral of the story? Check your fingers before touching things if you’ve just been drawing!!! The mark is actually still on my finger lol— I hope it’ll come out soon!! 🤣

Hiii!! So ‪@CanineCoolArtStudios-Official‬ tagged anyone who wanted to do the aesthetics challenge, and I thought it looked like fun, so here is mine!! 💗

1. Share an outfit that matches your aesthetic!
This photo I found is so perfect!! My sister found it saved on our device and actually thought the photo was of me xD It’s just SO how I dress!! I love wearing cute pale floral shirts with frilly or puffy sleeves, and I pair them with jeans. When I was searching for this I was surprised to see a TON of photos that matched me pretty well, but this one was best. During my search I learned that cardigans that tie with a ribbon look super cute with my aesthetic! Now I’ll be on the lookout for some! 😆

2. Share a quote that matches your aesthetic!
THIS. This quote is like my motto. I love it so much. ✨

3. Share a shoe that matches your aesthetic!
I could’ve found a shoe with flowers or something… but I wasn’t sure if I’m meant to find a shoe that fits what ACTUALLY I wear, or just my aesthetic. I decided to just go with this, because this is pretty much what my shoes look like.

4. Share a meme that matches your aesthetic!
I KID YOU NOT THIS DISCOVERY WAS MADE ONLY A FEW YEARS AGO LOLLL I always wondered why the logo wasn’t spelled right >v< BUT LIKE IT’S STILL HARD TO SEE THAT AS A ‘D’

5. Share a character that matches your aesthetic!
I’ve never related to a fictional character more deeply than Anne. She also matches my aesthetic (it’s her fault I love puffy sleeves) so it’s perfect!

6. Share an eye aesthetic that matches your eyes!
So I have gray eyes, which are pretty rare. Due to this, I couldn’t find a good aesthetic of them- so I just made one using Pin’s collage feature on my own xD Honestly it turned out great!! The color is like exactly the shade of my eyes. Oh and my one eye is a bit darker than the other, but it’s like impossible to get on camera, just something I’ve noticed lol!!

And yeahhh, that’s about it!! Below I’ll tag some people that I think might like to do this!! But if you don’t want to it’s fine!! 💕

Heyyyyy!! So I got my YouTube Recap!!! Some of you were asking for me to post it (hi ‪@maryssketchbook‬ + ‪@dreamiibunnii‬ ‬ ) so here it is!! ✨A little disclaimer that I use YouTube on 3 devices- one offline, one my family’s, and this account as well. So the info is somewhat off…. But still! Let’s see what it says!! (Click for the full images!)

1. LOL IDK but seeing ‘Cute Animal Videos’ up there is just funny to me. I mean… I do like animals!! 😆

2. I watched a LOT MORE than that on my offline device…. lol!!

3. My top music artists. I really like Japanese music and K-pop. I’M SO SHOCKED SKZ WAS NUMBER ONE THO HUH!?! I also really got into tuki’s music this year, so THAT one doesn’t surprise me at all. Honestly I thought she’d be higher. Only first place is K-pop, the rest are Japanese, which is accurate.

4. My top songs- I did listen to ‘This is For’ a lot xD + I’M STILL SHOCKED ABOUT THAT FIRST ONE, how much did I really listen to it!?!

Anywayssss hope you all enjoyed this random post!! Seeya soon for my next upload!! (It’ll be a short!!)

♡ Hi everyone!! So, thanks so much to everyone who voted on my poll yesterday!!! Although the actual poll's results are a bit mixed, everyone who commented reassured me that I should either do what I want-
or remove it.
I think (forgive me if I'm wrong) most of you who voted for me to keep it really just didn't care either way. So, since I still think that the 'speedpaint' titling is a bit misleading, I'll be removing it from my future uploads, at least for a while! If I see a drastic drop in views or something though, I'll go back to my old titling style- I just really want my video titles to be clear and easy to understand! >v< I can't believe so many of you voted and gave me the advice, so thank you again!!! And I'm sorry if this disappoints anyone!! Love ya and have a lovely day~

Hi everyone!! So I need your help with a BIG decision! Should I remove 'speedpaint' from my titles?
So, when I started youtube, I thought that adding 'speedpaint' to my titles was the perfect way to get across the point that my videos are art related. But the more time that goes by, the more that I want to change it. I think it might give the idea that my videos are only raw speedpaints, without music or cometary. I haven't seen a video titled 'speedpaint' with editing, talking or music like mine. However, Youtubers who make similar art content (Love2DrawManga, Reagan Doodles) do not add speedpaint to their titles, they just make it apparent from the title that the video IS art related.

But, what do you think? Please help!!
