ADDED: Just a quick edit...please don't get me wrong. There are tons of popular artists who are down to earth the nicest people I've seen. To name a few,

,

are a few of them.
This journal was more of a thought to those who have decided to walk away from their friends to make friends who are more popular.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Popularity is one subject that I barely touch on, just because I'm not too concern about it myself. There's nothing wrong about people wanting to be popular, it's part of people's ego I guess.
But what truly disgusts me about popularity is when you see people, who you have treated them well, totally shoved you aside and not even bothering talking to you just because your drawings suck, and you're not popular at all. All you see from them is kissing up to other better drawn artists. And all they complain about is, "Oh, I used to get more than 1000+ favs whenever I submit, and now I don't, what happen to me?"
That attitude was basically a slap in the face to those who have less favs. But for me, it's not because of the amount of favs that matters, but the ignorance and arrogance that irks me. I personally chose not to associate with those who are so caught up in this race called "popularity". I like to associate with all different artists who are kind and humble.
I've made quite a few friends on dA since more than a year ago. These friends have a wide range of skills. We don't choose friends based on skills or popularity, but who they are truly inside.
So at the end, feel free to shove me aside, if I'm not "worthy" enough to be your friend. I still have other friends enough for me to care for, especially to

who I have been sticking with since I've met her on dA.
With that being said, Happy Holidays and be a nice kid

I like to associate with different artists, and I don't choose friends based on their skills.
I think that the so called popular artists have already gotten too much attention,so I try to focus on the other artists, which is why my faves consists of work from everyone else except the popular artists.

I think there's a chinese saying something like, "You can have a lot of friends, but you may not be close to any of them; You can have a few friends, but they will be your best friends for life."

Hunger? Feelings? Lives? Spriters don't want or have those!
I'm glad I have a friend like you.
You seem to understand a lot, and you have lots of experience.
I find your journal very important,and I'll continue to read them
Of course, you do find some really nice Popular people, who are totally awesome and have no problem talking to their fans C:
...Though, I still get nervous and too shy to talk to them, XD;
It's kind of funny as well, to think people act nice to people just because of certain numbers though.
I hope you had a wonderful holiday as well Arina! I wish you best in the upcoming new year. <3
