How is Kalons Adopts special to you:
Though this does not shed much positive light on me... Here goes nothing.
I am someone who is very passive; always looking for that outside source of inspiration or my "next big motivator" whether that be in people or things. Long story cut real short... it's a terrible way to live and something that I have been acutely aware of and actively trying to change.
I'd like to think that I am capable of setting realistic goals but the fact is that I will fail miserably at even the most intricately and detailed of plans, due to the inconsistency in my work ethic.
I have never had a long-term mentor (aside from mandatory schooling) due to this reason and even when I wanted to pursue art at a higher level (in comparison to the current me who just "farts" around when it comes to art, drawing whatever, whenever) I held back because I knew this disgustingly persistent facet of myself all too well.
However, through sheer trial and error, I have realized that if there was even a cure at all for this nauseatingly "third-world-problemesque" disease that plagues me then it would be have to exist in some community setting.
That, even though I may not be the most social person (scratch that I am not social at all... ;;;), I benefit greatly from (and in turn will try my very best to contribute the same amount to) immersing myself in a proactive and driven group of individuals. I think the Kalon community exemplifies that very cure I have sought after for so long. A band of passionate, encouraging, artistic and synergistic energies, one that attracts as well as, well, intimidates?
Though my reason may not be very special at all, heck, it might even be just purely a selfish reason, I felt like I should come clean with my intentions. I really feel as though this question is truly important for me to answer truthfully and honestly I'd really love to get the opportunity to contribute to this amazing group.
Give a shout out to a fellow community or staff member for the species: (can be more than one if you desire, and give a specific reason why you're recognizing them)
The very first Kalon I laid eyes on was one designed by high noon and honestly, the artistry, professionalism and parent-like care that went into that design was truly outstanding.
It was evident to me from the designers that this species employed that this was more than just a casual adopt on an artistic site. I saw in them, in the artists, and in high noon especially, something I've been seeking for myself all this time; passion.
There was no violent "competitiveness" between the creators, rather I could feel the camaraderie, friendship, support and mutual respect as an outsider however the designs that I saw only improved and matured...
It went against everything that I've been led to believe, that competition would breed success and that comparison would be the fastest route to the top. More than anything I would like to change my outsider status. This community, these creators, the creations; I am drawn to everything about Kalons and hope that one day I can be more than just an admirer. ^^
