Annoying Instagram Drama: Fake Smile

  Hey guys! I'm sooo sorry that it's been so long since I've posted anything and that I'm coming back like this
~ I realized after writing my complaints post that I am actually not being a hypocrite by writing posts like this because no one I know knows that I use this blog, and no one reads my posts anyways lolol
  Anyways, there will probably be more Annoying Instagram Drama posts after this one because I have been seeing a lot of that crap recently, but this one is the first of probably three.
  So, my school is K-12 and pretty small, so I know most of the jr. highers there and follow them on instagram. This girl that is giving the drama is a 7th grader that I will call H in case I end up showing this blog to someone at school xD The drama is nothing that is trying to pick a fight with some other chick or anything, but she just tries to get attention by getting people to feel sorry for her. A lot of her posts are her explaining that she uses a "fake smile", and that her life is pretty much crap.
  The stupid thing is, if you are really using a "fake smile", then you wouldn't be making posts like that. The whole point of a fake smile is for people to believe that you're okay and that you're able to endure through all the trials of life. However, that all goes to waste when you tell the whole world about it. If you have a "fake smile" then it'd be hard to hold back and you'd have to run from conversations to keep from crying.
  One cool thing about having a blog is that I can post all kinds of things like she is. However, it's ok for me because I know that no matter how much I can post about "my life is crap", there won't be anyone feeling sorry for me because they simply don't know me. But I don't post that kind of stuff, right? Why is that? I went through Jr. High and the same things that she is. In fact, her experience is probably going even better than mine back then. I never had a boyfriend and was even super depressed because the guy I liked faked to like me back then dumped me. I was never a very social person, so I barely even had friends out of my small class. The sports team I joined was horrible and made me think that I couldn't win at anything.

  Away from the whole "fake smile" thing that she claims to have, a bunch of other things bug me. "People these days don't know how to treat others" - the thing is, no one should expect for people to know how to treat others because no one is perfect. If everyone were to be kind to each other, sure it'd be peaceful, but people would think of it as boring. They may not admit it, but girls love to talk crap about each other, or they love to gossip. They may not like drama once it comes, but many seem to not be able to live without treating someone horribly. Even outside of girls and gossip, there is always someone that just doesn't know proper respect and the fact that you should act different around people depending on how much you know them. No matter what, there will always be things that others are bugged by or simply hate.
  (Sure, I'll admit I understand the whole acting crazy to forget things. But from what she posts, I've seen that her problems aren't even in this state. The whole acting crazy is supposed to distract you from whatever problems are around you, but it should be easy for her not to think about it all if she can't see it.)
  "I'm never intentionally mean or never a drama maker". She is a really nice girl. The problem is that she's
being a hypocrite when she says she isn't a drama maker. Half of her posts are like this one, and many of them often target some guy that doesn't love her back. She isn't starting anything with anyone in the state, but she's posted things of at least 3 different guys in the last few months. Maybe she doesn't think she's causing any problems, but her posts are annoying as heck. I would unfollow her, but she actually is happy sometimes, and I follow her for those posts. But when she does make the dramatic posts, I just want to yell at her like "suck it up- you're a frickin 7th grader and you're complaining every week about a guy you can only see on a screen(all the guys are in a different state too lawde). What problems are you going to have when you get to highschool and college?"... So yeah, she is a dramamaker.
  Past that, it annoys me to heck that she's talking like she's an amazing and most innocent person in the world. Even the most innocent person in the world wouldn't feel this sorry for themselves because they'd have even a small bit of modesty and notice that they sound like a character on a tv show, lying to make everyone sorry for them. She's bringing all the drama to herself when she says she doesn't deserve any of it.
AHHHHH I'm so sorry this is so long... I need to find better things to post about OTL However, this was really bugging me and it helps me so much to just type it all down instead of showing it all to someone I know in person. So yeah, that's rant #1. I apologize for this rant and the ones to come.

Anastasiya Shpagina

  Hello~ Sorry it's been a while since I've written... I think I'll take a break from just putting up what I put for my speeches! My ideas have seemed pretty dull recently, so I thought I should put a little more work into my blog!
  Today I though I'd talk about one of my favorite online people- Anastasiya Shpagina! I think she's most often known as the "real life anime girl", but she's done a lot of different things since she's been given that title!
  At first when I heard of her, I wasn't quite as interested for a couple reasons. Most articles and videos  about her said the same things: She wears the anime makeup all the time, she's received surgery, and people's opinions of her are mixed. There's a lot to say about her, but there's only a limited amount of information they can get and give. Most people that like to talk about her in these articles make it pretty obvious that they haven't actually found this information from her or a physical source, but instead just used what was already stated online. I guess it works...?
  My second reason is that her youtube channel was more like an instagram than what it is usually used for. All her videos were under 30 seconds, and all that was shown in it was what could be put in a picture- her showing her makeup, daily outfits, etc. Once in a while I would visit the channel and look at some random videos, but I was never interested enough to subscribe.
  However, she's changed quite a lot, and I love to watch her! I haven't seen many more articles about her recently, but she deserves to have another one written for her. Now, on her youtube channel, she does makeup transformations into celebrities, and they are really~ accurate. It's amazing how she can see the details of people's faces and change her features to look like others!
  Some of my favorite transformations of her are Ariana Grande, Avril Lavigne, Park Bom, and many others! I've seen many transformation videos, but I think hers are the most accurate. :) She's also made some makeup tutorials on ways to make her anime makeup, and an adorable way of doing ulzzang makeup!
  I don't like people having plastic surgery, but I like her too much to care(and plastic surgery will be saved for another post)! She seems like a very nice person, and she treats all her fans well. I haven't heard very much of her being in any drama, and I think she's a good role model when it comes to personality.
  Overall, I'd really recommend her channel!  She's great with makeup and has a great personality- I'd love to meet her sometime, especially since she's become a lot better with her english!
See you in my next post!

Stupid Me!

self portrait by me
Hey guys! I just thought I'd share this. Why can't people realize it sooner that they should give credit to the original artist of something, or at least say that they didn't draw it? I hate it when people take that route of making "art" in the first place, but I'm tired of people not giving credit when they reference, trace, color, ANYTHING off of someone else's work. If you used someone else's work to help make your own in any way, you should give them credit. Their work is not the same as yours, and you do not deserve the same amount of recognition for something that someone else did!
  Sorry everyone but I just had to get this off my chest! It's late! I should be sleeping! I shouldn't be online! However, I hope that this slaps someone in the face and somehow reminds them about giving credit, because it can become something very bad! Don't trace and be happy that people show their own art in public in the first place!
  I'll probably make a video or longer blogpost about this later, but for now that's it! Goodnight!
