to;; anyone,

how has 2018 been for you so far? a lot of people have had different views, some saying that theirs have started out pretty sad but some have said its been way better than 2017, so im curious! ♥

\\thankyou for reading ;w;

2018 has been challenging. I had a really rough spring 2018 semester (just finished it) and that's been really hard on me. I'm glad it's over. Hopefully 2018 can redeem itself c:

@anyone: do you like musicals? if so, what's your favorite??
i like my fair lady and annie :3

I loove musicals. My favorite professional production that I've seen is Wicked... but The Sound of Music and The Music Man have a special place in my heart.

@Any staff member: What book series are you currently reading? (I'm currently reading Wings of Fire)

I'm currently catching up on the Warriors series. c: Nostalgia here i come.

This is for any staff member! have any good music recommendations? can be literally anything from 70s pop to dubstep!

I've been real into Roger Waters lately(new stuff, and then old Pink Floyd stuff like The Wall) and Lucius, since they've been touring with him. Also listening a lot to Imagine Dragons and David Byrne since I'll be seeing them this summer.

To anyone,

-What's your favorite Disney movie? (including Pixar)
-Who's your favorite Disney hero and why?
-Who's your favorite Disney villain and why?

As a smol Dia., I used to watch Lady and the Tramp on repeat... also Fox and the Hound. Brother Bear also is pretty special to me.
I don't really have any favorite heroes and villains.

What movie/book has inspired you the most in the way you live your life?
Bonus points if you can quote a line in particular that has changed how you think/go through life!
Essentially what words did you take most to heart that have shaped you as a person I guess cx

Tough question! I don't really know how much it has shaped the way I live my life, but The Princess Bride is one of those films that has stuck with me. ^^

Right now I'm a student studying molecular, cellular, and developmental biology. I'd love to become a genetic counselor some day.

When u first joined cs was it because u were offered a STAFF job or did u join and later become a STAFF member

All staff started off as a member. You have to be familiar with the site to be an effective staff member. c:
I was on CS for almost 6 years I think before becoming staff.

@anyone

do you consider yourself a crybaby? i cry so easily please validate me

I've got anxiety and when it gets really bad I start crying involuntarily and I hate it so much >n<

Have you ever dawn traditional art? If so, what did you draw?

Yeah I started out doing traditional art, just pencil drawings, nothing serious. I never had a hand for painting or that type of thing. Now I mostly just do digital art, though I do still do a lot of sketches when I'm bored.

dear anyone,
do you think tie dye looks bad as a pattern?

I think some of the patterns can look pretty cool, there are actually a lot of different ways to do tie-dye, not just the generic rainbow swirl (which I don't actually like that much). There are like scale patterns, crumple, wave, etc. Theres actually a lot you could do with it. If you actually do your own tie dye you get to make pride shirts and whats not cool about that?? I've got a couple asexual flag tie-dye shirts.

To: All staff

What is your religion? (Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Atheist, other?) Im just curious
Also, I don't know if this is allowed but are you legally an adult/drinking age where you are from? Jufy yo clarify, im not asking you to state your age or anything like that, just because i'm legally an adult where im from so legally im responsible for everything, like doctors appointments and stuff like that

I am atheist & considered an adult. I was raised christian, and called myself christian for a long time before one day realizing I didn't actually believe in it. Went agnostic for a while as I tried to figure out if there was anything I did believe in, and eventually decided I didn't. Really hasn't changed anything for me, death is death and we can only do the best we can while we are alive. I did take a religion class last semester, and learning about the different major religions was really interesting. I think people should be respectful of other's beliefs, and open to learning about them.

To anyone,

-What's your favorite Disney movie? (including Pixar)
-Who's your favorite Disney hero and why?
-Who's your favorite Disney villain and why?

I'm really bad at picking a singular favorite of anything cause I tend to like a lot of them, just for different reasons ahh.

Like I really love the characters in Hercules, but also torn cause I love greek legends and would have liked to see it closer to the actual story of Hercules.

So, long list incoming, these would be my favorite Disney; Mulan, Brother Bear, Zootopia, Moana

And Pixar; The Incredibles, Ratatouille, WALL-E, Brave

Also really bad at favorite villains and heros, though I do tend to like the villains more just cause they are more fun c':

does it ever make you feel bad/happy when a pet you made has bad/good demand?

like the malk dragon on the cs birthday, or pps dragoncat, or even a list?

I only made a few pets for GH litters, but it makes me really happy when I see users who enjoyed my cat. Even saw a couple hoards of them which was really cool ^^

I use SAI for all my drawings, though I use GIMP for animating stuff since SAI doesn't support it. I'd switch to something that can animate, but I really like SAI.

I use my GH position in my resume. I'm going into IT, helping people with computer problems, and I already do some of that as a GH so it definitely applies.

Thanks!

There are Dec 18th pets in the pound, and they can show up, you just aren't going to see them often since they are going to rare pets and usually get picked up pretty quickly. But they are there. They get treated just the same as any other pet in the pound, they aren't special ^^

I finally got to see The Greatest Showman yesterday!! Any of you seen it? What was your favourite song? Can you even pick a favourite?

[Fossington]

to all the staff:

do you have a favorite Hamilton song if so witch one?

[Zeena]

Found some great questions and couldn't help but answer them! c:

Dear anyone:

Do you like to make OCs? If so, how many do you have? I have around 70 ^^;

I have two main OCs, Zeena and Kali! Zeena is my grey wolf OC, and Kali is my African wild dog OC. Though Zeena was my first character I generally use Kali now. xD
I have created many characters though, mostly for writing stories and such but these are my main two I use for everything else. I also use them as usernames now, so feel free to call me either Zeena or Kali. c:

\\thankyou for reading ;w;

2018 has been quite an adventure so far! It started out fairly normal with nothing special, but I feel very fortunate with how it's going and I hope it'll continue to be a good year! I was very lucky to be added to the awesome staff team here on CS, and I recently heard back about my application to vet school where I'm still being considered. I will know within a month if I'm officially accepted, though I'm still in shock I was able to even get this far! ^^

@anyone: do you like musicals? if so, what's your favorite??
i like my fair lady and annie :3

Looveee musicals! My favourite musical plays are Be More Chill and Hamilton (haven't seen it but love the music and wish to see it someday), though for movies I love Hairspray.

To anyone,

-What's your favorite Disney movie? (including Pixar)
-Who's your favorite Disney hero and why?
-Who's your favorite Disney villain and why?

I pretty much love every Disney movie, but my all time favourite is The Lion King. For Pixar I'd say Brave is my favourite.
My favourite hero is Tiana from The Princess and the Frog, since she's the only princess that works for what she gets. She doesn't just fall for a prince and spend the entire movie going after a guy, but instead works hard to get her dream restaurant. I really admire how much work she does and how she doesn't stop until she achieves her goal.
My favourite villain is probably Cruella de Vil just because she's so crazy and won't stop until she gets what she wants. Hades is also pretty cool, and of course Scar too!

I'd have to say the movie "The Last Lions" definitely inspired me and changed my view on not only big cats, but also on how amazing nature can be. One of my favourite quotes is "there are moments before every conflict when the fighters have a choice: to back away and let the moment pass, or to unite and step forward behind their leader into battle". I think this quote reminds me that not every decision needs action, you can always step back and look at the bigger picture and then decide if the best thing to do is simply nothing at all.

to all the staff:

My favourite song is Satisfied, though I love Wait For It as well!

Dear anyone:

Gato, Switch and Amaranth are the only characters I've created without any real purpose, although I've since had them feature in a couple of stories. I also have a few different DnD characters: Diabel, Siwraka and Macha.

Not a book or move, but a video game: Metal Gear Solid 2.
