So! Got tired of seeing my other journal entry, plus I have a bit of news.

has hit 500 members, which makes me super happy. I've been working really hard to try and make it an active group, and I wanna give my thanks to all our wonderful members who share their art with us.

At the same time, I notice I have 53 watchers.

So I'm gonna do a little self-promoting here I promised over at there would be some sort of event when we hit 500 members. It feels a little too soon to hold another contest, so I'm gonna do a little something here.

I'm gonna have two little giveaways. First is going to happen when I hit 5k pageviews. I'm just over 3800 right now, so there's plenty of time for everybody to have a chance. Whoever gets a screenshot of themself being the 5000th pageview is gonna get a surprise (I haven't decided what it's gonna be yet.)

I'm gonna do the same thing when I hit 75 watchers, only a little differently. Once I hit 75, I'll post a journal letting everyone know, and everybody who wants to enter can comment, then I'll randomly choose one person who'll also get a surprise.

In other news, it's my birthday on Sunday! I'm super excited I'm heading down on Friday to spend the weekend with my sister and my boyfriend Chris, as well as a bunch of other friends at their college campus. There's gonna be pumpkin carving, craft shopping, and cake, so it'll pretty much be the best weekend ever.
