One time in college a friend and i accidentally activated the fire alarm of the photography area. There was this switch that honestly didn't look so different from a regular light switch so we pushed it and boi was it loud, we immediately turned it off and ran away. The thing is, there were stories about a ghost girl in there, it was around halloween/day of the dead (they had put an ofrenda/altar for her) and no one saw it was us, so everyone was panicking
Considering my classmates or atleast the boys like scary stuff they wouldve rushed over there to try and find the ghost xD While me on the other hand: Terrified Shaking Almost fainting Yes I am aware that I am a coward
Damn. Tell that to my kindergarten teacher who immediately picked me up after I fell over on my chair with a pair of scissors, accidentally slicing my hand, and running my bleeding hand under the sink on full blast.
I'm glad I don't go to art school... Never mind CUZ I STILL WANT TO ik I'm clumsy but.... I don't think I've ever cut myself with a knife or scissors except the time I cut my own hair even then it was only my hair
In year 13, I was doing an A Level Textiles mock. I was on the sewing machines doing some embroidery, but the machine kept on unthreading. I tried grabbing the thread but I accidentally dropped my foot on the footpedal and I sewed into my finger. It felt like a paper cut but it looked worse. The needle broke and was stuck in my finger. My first thought when I looked at my finger was "I'm gonna be on TV!" because the nearest hospital where I live is where a documentary called 24 Hours in A&E is filmed. I had to go to Accident & Emergency, but lo and behold, the cameras weren't there. I was extremely disappointed. The needle only broke my nail and I had to wear this weird finger sock for a week.
Simstastic Papercuts still hurt though I did the same with a knife whilst cooking with my class with my least favourite teacher but I had to go to the nurse. Mine hurt a lot
wow since we're sharing embarrassing art stories let me share my bit!! so in seventh grade i was in my school's art club. one day we were leaving to go home, and i ended up having to wait by the door since too many people were going out at once (like when a funnel gets stopped up). since i was tired, i leaned on a table next to me and put my hand down on it, quickly realizing how cold and almost wet it felt. i looked down and discovered i had stuck my hand on a canvas that was painted over completely in fresh white paint. i panicked, so i slapped my hand down on the side of the table to get the paint off. my friend behind me saw and looked with wide eyes as i suddenly bolted out of the room with the rest of the class and to the bathroom. the next day, my teacher asked us if the room looked different. when no one said anything, she pointed to the table and an empty space on the wall saying "my painting is gone and there’s a handprint right there!" i pretended to look shocked as she said someone must have stolen it, and for the whole week after, i faced dozens of people talking about the missing painting. someone even suggested going to the forensics teacher (which made me fear for my life). soon after, the painting turned up (it had fallen behind some cabinets), but the teacher still has no idea that i, one of her best students, left the handprint on her table.
I can relate to the portfolio one for sure! Last year, while I was waiting for my ride on campus, the wind was picking up so hard that my portfolio was literally dragging me off the ground. People around me where just looking at me fight against the wind and portfolio,a sight to see I guess xD Finally,the wind suddenly died off and I got smacked so hard by the portfolio I tripped and fell down against the fence. At that moment, my ride arrived and I quickly got up, picked up my stuff, and got in to a ride full of explaining and embarrassment... The wind is not an artist's friend I quickly learned xD
My art class in highschool (this year and last year) the art teacher is like a really chill grandpa. He will get you food from the teachers lounge on occasion, and he makes the class so comfortable we basically have a counseling room in there. He is the sweetest 62 yr old ive ever met, and i will definitely miss him.
Oh my gosh, that’s really weird...just a few days ago a girl in my class had one of those alarm things on her backpack and it went off and freaked everybody out. We also thought it was the fire alarm at first but then she told us what it was. I bet she could totally relate to how you felt.
When i was in sixth grade, i was SUPER selfconsious about my art. (I mean, i still am, but its not as bad as it was in 6th grade :p) well one time, when i was going to the art wing of my school, i tripped on this weird platform my art class had outside of the wing and when i fell, the folder filled with my unproprtionate, terrible anime art was scattered everywhere. It doesnt seem that bad but since that school was filled with really bad kids (plus i have really bad anxiety and depperession :/) i was scared everyone would laugh at me. So i immediately started tearing up while trying to pick up all my art and art supplies. I eventually just broke down and had to go to the office to be taken home. (Fun Fact: my anxiety was so bad in that school, i had to be taken home on an average of every other week and im currently being homeschooled!)
Same for me!! My anxiety was so bad I had to be homeschooled. What did it for me was the beginning of 10th grade, I was in this computer class where we had to photoshop our faces on a person standing next to our favorite celebrity for an assignment. My teacher took pictures of us with his camera and uploaded it onto our computer in the computer lab. When he uploaded my disgusting face on my computer it took up the entire screen! So everyone walking by could have a clear view of all my insecurities. I panicked and instinctively scrambled to cover my picture with both hands from prying eyes, while my teacher was laughing hysterically at my attempts for some reason. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't shrink the picture. And if that wasn't bad enough, my teacher let random students pick up his camera to scroll through all the photos of everyone. Looking, commenting, judging, and laughing to themselves. I begged him to let me not do the assignment but he said I'd fail if I didn't. That very day I told my dad I'm homeschooling and idec that he got mad and screamed at me for it. I remembered crying alot that day and wanting to kms.
Both hot and cold water are good for cuts, just don't use both of them on the same cut, choose only one. The best option for a bleeding cut though is to apply firm pressure on to it, that will stop the bleeding far better than water.
I did it while I was being an idiot in like 6th grade while trying to cut an entire stack of like 30 sheets of computer paper with a rotary cutter for fabric... I almost sliced off the tip of my thumb so that sucked but at least I was at home and not at school 😅
When I was 5, my uncle was digging a well in my backyard for a charity, and I really wanted to help, but my mom didn't want me to cuz she thought it'd be dangerous, but I kept insisting, so she let me, but she strictly told me to avoid anything sharp. So, here I was, my 5 year old self, digging with my uncle, when suddenly a glint of sunlight catches my eye. I walk over to the source of the sheen, and crouched down to it. It looked so enticingly smooth that my 5 year old instincts kicked in and I knew I just HAD to rub it. So I gently caress the suface of the object with my index finger. Only for it to start gushing blood. I screamed as loud as I could and started crying as nearly every adult available rushed to the scene. Turns out, I cut myself almost down to bone on a piece of glass.
Erika Hi One time we were making paper snowflakes in class but since the paper was so thick I had to press really hard with the knife so I accidentally broke the knife and got a cut on my finger (it wasn't so bad though) It was a little awkward later that day when I saw somebody showing the broken knife to the whole class and teacher (and me too kind of) like "wtf happened to this knife"
I did one where i had really sharp cutting knife because i was cutting an apple. The apple juices was going everywhere, knife slips and i slice down my finger
I got an X-shaped luggage strap for my portfolio bag so I could wear it like a backpack. It also meant I had to walk sideways through doorways and my classmates would have to dodge like the wind if I decided to turn around quickly, BUT IT WORKED.
I love how you tell your stories with timelapses xD I don't really draw and I'm not an artist (I'm already studying what I love), but it's something that I used to do often and I want to say that you have inspired me to do it again!! Love your videos and your drawings!!
I went to a graphic design school, and for every project we had to mount a printed out version on this black board, and we had to cut off all the white edges the printer left, and we had to do this with an x-acto knife, the first project we had to do this for (like the purpose of the project was to teach us how to mount because that would be so important in our careers as graphic designers) my friend cut the tip of his finger off. it wouldnt stop bleeding, i had to perform first aid. this wouldnt have been so bad if it werent like 10 min before the project was due. Someone else had to finish mounting the board so he wouldnt get a grade deduction, and his project ended up getting to class before he did because we were still in the bathroom trying to stop the bleeding. and now the students dont have to do mounting anymore because the school realized that no one outside of the school did it
#notification squad! *the first time I ever got to say this* :> love u Lavendertowne! I never clicked on a notification this fast xD the title just sounded so funny. Edit: 0 dislikes. I am satisfied
All of the stories were great! The first one has to be my favorite. It's like something straight out of anime. One of those things that you have to see in order to believe.
i’ve been watching a lot of your tutorials lately and they have been helping me so much !! i’ve just started digital art (i’ve been doing traditional for years) and honestly have no idea what i’m doing !!!! thankyou for ur advice and also for being so interesting and engaging to listen to :33
Lol evacuating in my school would never work. When there's a fire drill, there's just a long line to one exit, and I never get through it in time. So if there really was a fire Id be toasted!
* has 5 cuts from her last art class on the left hand. * * whistles innocenntly * No, I didnt played around with the paper cutter thing... what are you talking about? * cough *
I also had a thing happen to me similar to the cut story... one day in the middle of class my nose started bleeding out of nowhere, and this was the worst nosebleed I have ever had in my life. It was bleeding so much and I was really embarrassed, so I tried to just cover it with my hand and ask to go to the bathroom without anybody noticing. But that didn’t work out, there was so much blood that when I asked the teacher if I could go to the bathroom she freaked out and the whole class started staring at me. So I can understand how you felt.
That 3rd story reminds me of the time when I was in 6th grade and I had just gotten a thing to make me "hear quiet things" from a spy set, and it started to screech really load during a test because it picked up some noises. I had forgotten to to turn it off-
oh my god the xacto knife story is ABSOLUTELY something i would do. i've had accidents (granted, smaller) in school or other similar environments in which i was just. way too filled with social anxiety to do anything like tell the teacher.
Honesty I relate with the first story-wind in Calgary is INTENSE. Especially when you’re in the downtown area in winter because it’s so cold and wind chill exists ❄️
I've done the cutting the hand open thing, except it was when I was a Crew Leader and it was the first day I was meeting the 6 people I was gonna be supervising. Slashed my hand open cutting an apple and needed stitches. So embarrassing.
Wait you went to school in Alberta!!! That’s so cool! I also happen to live in Alberta. :) it always brightens my day to find out that someone who content I love also comes from the same place as me.
For future reference with carrying portfolios, try to slip both of your arms into it and bring the straps straight up your shoulders to your neck. You might have to hold that, but it might help share the weight between your shoulders
The paper cutting one really hit home for me. My foot is actually in pain right now just remembering it! We used to have about 3 acres of land that sat next to the woods. It wasn't straight up wilderness, every now and then you could just faintly hear someone playing the sax or clarinet on the other side of the woods, but it was still pretty dense when you consider the rest of the area (town and such). We actually had to stop going into the woods a couple years before we moved because there were coyotes that had taken up roaming there. In any case! I divided up our property into three parts of what I considered each 'acre'. Horribly inaccurate. There was the acre along the woods and also where out house sat, there was the acre of pretty open land (literally one apple tree and the pirate ship-esque swing set my dad built us), and finally the acre with my mom's garden and the garage. Which was detached and at the end of our driveway, only useful for the vintage car my dad had (he inherited the family's chrysler dealership. I miss that place, haha!) our bikes and a whole lot of yard work/gardening stuff. It was like walking into an abandoned hardware store (it was messy as all hell). There was a teardrop driveway between the acre with the woods and the acre with my mom's garden. With three acres comes A LOT of trees, and therefore, A LOT of leaves. What did we do with them? After we raked them, we'd get them in the tractor, then our dad would dump them in the woods. We had our own supply of mulch/compost! One year, my sister and I were assigned to loading up the wheelbarrow with the decomposed leaves and take them to the garden where my mom and brother were spreading it along with other work that needed to be done there. I was using a pitchfork to do this. Great. Fine. Well, up until we finished filled the wheelbarrow. I told my sister I'd wheel it over. I stabbed the pitchfork in the ground and walked over to it. Well. I tried to. I instantly fell onto my hands and knees. There was a moment of confusion, I hadn't realized what had happened. It wasn't until I went to get back up that I moved my foot back and it came out of shock. I put one of the tines in my foot! Luckily it was old and blunt, it hadn't gotten to the bone. *Just my artery*. While my sister, who was known to over-exaggerate my injuries to our mother, ran to get help, I was there screaming bloody murder. It wasn't until she told her it was bleeding like a fountain that our mom picked up the pace! That's one of my best stories to exemplify my all around bad luck xD Just a little extra bit; I wasn't taken to the hospital until a few days later when my nurse aunt said it was starting to look a little gangrene-y. And even then it was just the clinic we went to. Good times, good times.
OOF I'm from Calgary and the wind here does suck like a few days ago it was only supposed to be -25 but because of the wind chill it ended up being -34. The worst part was we had a play at my school that I was in but I had to walk otherwise I could't go lmao
That cutting your thumb story brought back a very strange memory of mine from secondary school. Very similar situation. It was in a Design Tech class in year 9 - we were making a lamp from scratch (ended up failing that one because it almost electricuted my teacher) and we were using scalpels to cut out some fine plastic material. Much like Hailey, I slipped because I was tired and cut a huge bit of my thumb open. Unfortunately I wasn't so lucky and it went about halfway into my thumb before I had time to react. Now, take into account I've had social anxiety for as long as I can remember, and this teacher, though he liked me very much, had a history of flipping out at the smallest of things. He threw a chair at across a room because my friend forgot his planner. Luckily for me, he was very nice to people who were quiet and listened, which I generally did. Unfortunately I was still too scared to ask for help immediately and absolutely HATED making scenes because a few students in the class were a part of a massive bullying problem for me, so instead I followed him around for 10 minutes whilst he finished off talking to some other students and turned around "Now what can I do for you?", with a lovely smile on his face... And I just lifted my now blood soaked arm, sleeves dyed red and skin stained, and I'm not even kidding when all the blood drained from his face and he went "OH MY GOD WHAT THE HELL YOU'RE BLEEDING" and literally jumped over a chair with me being half dragged half thrown across the room to the sink and started washing it for me and panicked for a bit before telling people to go get the nurse before laughing at the situation and going "Why didn't you make a scene??" And I just shrugged and he just went "You don't have to be scared of me" And from that day on, I never hid any injury from him again. Ended up trusting him more than I did the school nurse after that encounter.
Hi LavenderTowne I am a huge huge fan of you I love you are an inspiration for me 💗 okay I wanted to ask you if you going to do new comics cause I read your 2 comics recently and I loved them I was soooo sad that I finished them in just 2 hours ''I wanted more from my fav writer'' (this is what I said when I finished to read them😢)
Agdkadkaleaoprbsknwj I live in Calgary, when you mentioned acad before I just automatically assumed you were an art school that was somewhere else because iddkkkkkkk ... yes wind, oof
My dad got me one of those shrill protective alarm things for Christmas except the thing with that one is that the string part of it is what makes it go off. You’d think it would be the massive button on it to set it off, no, you have to yank the string out of the little machine and it is the LOUDEST thing I have ever heard. I can’t imagine what that had to be like. That’d be so hysterically mortifying and shocking, I don’t know what I’d do if that happened to me in class. 😖
The keychain alarm, saaaaame. Mine went off in my pocket in class. I'd say those things aren't even worth carrying, just get a Bowie knife or something lol
It's hard, but if you fight for it you can do it. Maybe you could start doing commissions for your art to show your dad that it's possible to make money on art.
I relate so much to the last one, because I’ve actually brought two schools (my high school and the elementary attached to it) into an fire drill by opening the kiln too early
Oh my gosh, pained laughter, I'm actually lightheaded at the second story because I'm like. Having flashbacks to the time I cut myself that badly. The blade had just been replaced and no one thought to tell me??? So I went to cut with the same force that i used with the old horrible dull ones and IMAGINE MY SURPRISE when the blade cut through everything - including my thumb, like butter. So much sympathy pain/remembered pain.
The second one is too relatable! I'm a fashion student and while i was freehand machine embroidering, I accidentally sewed through my finger! oAo The freehand foot is higher off the fabric than the straight presser foot so you can move your fabric more easily, and it's really easy to catch your finger against it...That's what I thought had happened until the yellow thread I was embroidering with started turning orange and the girl working on the machine next to me pointed out that I was bleeding all over the shirt I was working on ;;;. I'd managed to sew through my finger just above where my fingernail ends...Thankfully the rule was that if the needle didn't break off and/or if it went straight through, you wouldn't need to go to the hospital, so I basically had to rinse the blood off my hands, then walk down 5 flights of stairs from the studio to the ground floor to ask the first-aid desk for a bandaid LOL I managed to fix the shirt too and hide the bloodstain so everything turned out okay LOL
Once i was in class (i think it was the 2nd week of school) And my phone started ringing *really* loud, and my ringtone was pretty annoying and embarrassing. But my first thought wasnt "oh no my phone is ringing!" It was "Oh hey cool someone has the same ringtone as me" And it kept ringing for a few minutes, and the class had stopped at that point because everyone was checkin their phones to see where it was coming from. Then I had the realization "o shit its coming from my phone" and everyone is staring at me as i quietly just reach into my bag.. And turn it off. *anxiety level 100*
"I can't believe that such a cartoonish thing happened to me" That reminds me of when I was in 7th grade and I was going back to my classroom after the break and I was distracted talking to my friend and suddenly some random GIANT boy appears and he was running in the opposite direction, we collide and I just get to the other side of the corridor like when a character is hit during a fight and the impact makes them "fall" to the other side of the battleground
Chris Clarke I don't do much animation, but after watching other people I suggest using references to draw things, and trace over them if you need to. If you're also having problems doing smooth movements, try drawing your character before, after, or during the movement, then in the animation software draw in any lines you think you need to smoothly connect the picture. Think of it as sort of connecting the dots, it may help you get the animation where you want it to go with a clear and easy path to follow. Don't hesitate to take notes on how you want parts to move, too! And have as many layers as you need. Don't animate everything on one layer, you want to be able to move different parts without the worry of messing up another part of the animation. I hope I helped you!
I cut my hand open with one of those blades, as well.. .but mine happened at work and I had to go to the er because a fountain of blood went into the air like something out of a cartoon. I ended up being rushed to the ER because I had to get stitches. The flashbacks are horrifying. Thank goodness it was not my drawing hand. Interesting to know I watch an artist who has gone through bad cuts too :')

She said ``To this day``. Are you deaf?!
Oh my god, I'm glad that cut didn't affect your ability to draw, that would be traumatic ! :(
Great video though !
A simple cut even a deep one doesn't do permanent damage unless treated poorly.
It was her right hand anyway (she said so), and she's left handed so even if it was really serious she would still be drawing fine.
Sultan Sketches Ayy~
she's left handed, it was her right hand, but it's kind of you to say that :)
Sultan Sketches she's a lefty so it wouldn't have effected her. I'm so happy too

It was so hard to drag it with me on and off the bus .-.
Running cuts under water makes them bleed *more* so only run cuts underwater if they are dirty!
Thanks!
Make sure to apply pressure to the wound site with a cloth (clothes, handkerchief, etc) to help it too I think.
I actually never knew that!

I too, went to school in an extremely windy town. Portfolio bags became sails and we, the art students, the unwilling passengers
Put on roller skates or a skateboard and you'd be very fast in an extremely unfortunate way
wow since we're sharing embarrassing art stories let me share my bit!!
so in seventh grade i was in my school's art club. one day we were leaving to go home, and i ended up having to wait by the door since too many people were going out at once (like when a funnel gets stopped up). since i was tired, i leaned on a table next to me and put my hand down on it, quickly realizing how cold and almost wet it felt. i looked down and discovered i had stuck my hand on a canvas that was painted over completely in fresh white paint. i panicked, so i slapped my hand down on the side of the table to get the paint off. my friend behind me saw and looked with wide eyes as i suddenly bolted out of the room with the rest of the class and to the bathroom.
the next day, my teacher asked us if the room looked different. when no one said anything, she pointed to the table and an empty space on the wall saying "my painting is gone and there’s a handprint right there!" i pretended to look shocked as she said someone must have stolen it, and for the whole week after, i faced dozens of people talking about the missing painting. someone even suggested going to the forensics teacher (which made me fear for my life). soon after, the painting turned up (it had fallen behind some cabinets), but the teacher still has no idea that i, one of her best students, left the handprint on her table.
That sucks bro
The teacher would have thought it was me cuz I woulda laughed lol

Looking, commenting, judging, and laughing to themselves. I begged him to let me not do the assignment but he said I'd fail if I didn't. That very day I told my dad I'm homeschooling and idec that he got mad and screamed at me for it. I remembered crying alot that day and wanting to kms.
@@lovepuppy4627 yeah but if school you still gotta go to school with cyberbullies you can just log off the site

*Lavendar Thank You So Much For Sharing Your Experience! It Was So Entertaining!*

"my first thought was to blast it with cold water, " Nooo! Hot! Hot! Water! Hot water keeps it temporarily bearable.
Zarah Lynn nah dude, hot water makes it bleed more. cold water numbs it.
We'll just agree to disagree, but I'll keep it in mind if Hot water never works
Don't run cuts under any water unless they are dirty. The water keeps the blood from clotting.
Both hot and cold water are good for cuts, just don't use both of them on the same cut, choose only one.
The best option for a bleeding cut though is to apply firm pressure on to it, that will stop the bleeding far better than water.
The exacto knife thing I did the exact same thing with an actual knife cutting vegetables down to my thumbnail rip
I did it while I was being an idiot in like 6th grade while trying to cut an entire stack of like 30 sheets of computer paper with a rotary cutter for fabric... I almost sliced off the tip of my thumb so that sucked but at least I was at home and not at school 😅
That happened to me when I was trying to chop hazelnuts, almost lost the tip of my thumb. My nail saved me.
When I was 5, my uncle was digging a well in my backyard for a charity, and I really wanted to help, but my mom didn't want me to cuz she thought it'd be dangerous, but I kept insisting, so she let me, but she strictly told me to avoid anything sharp. So, here I was, my 5 year old self, digging with my uncle, when suddenly a glint of sunlight catches my eye. I walk over to the source of the sheen, and crouched down to it. It looked so enticingly smooth that my 5 year old instincts kicked in and I knew I just HAD to rub it. So I gently caress the suface of the object with my index finger. Only for it to start gushing blood. I screamed as loud as I could and started crying as nearly every adult available rushed to the scene. Turns out, I cut myself almost down to bone on a piece of glass.
Erika Hi One time we were making paper snowflakes in class but since the paper was so thick I had to press really hard with the knife so I accidentally broke the knife and got a cut on my finger (it wasn't so bad though) It was a little awkward later that day when I saw somebody showing the broken knife to the whole class and teacher (and me too kind of) like "wtf happened to this knife"
I did one where i had really sharp cutting knife because i was cutting an apple. The apple juices was going everywhere, knife slips and i slice down my finger
I got an X-shaped luggage strap for my portfolio bag so I could wear it like a backpack. It also meant I had to walk sideways through doorways and my classmates would have to dodge like the wind if I decided to turn around quickly, BUT IT WORKED.

PFFT IT'S AT LIKE 1K VIEWS NOW--
oh yeah
Ahem *cough* 4k now
oh my words
I just wanted to say that I love the way you do your line art, I think it suits your overall style very well!
I love how you tell your stories with timelapses xD I don't really draw and I'm not an artist (I'm already studying what I love), but it's something that I used to do often and I want to say that you have inspired me to do it again!! Love your videos and your drawings!!
I went to a graphic design school, and for every project we had to mount a printed out version on this black board, and we had to cut off all the white edges the printer left, and we had to do this with an x-acto knife, the first project we had to do this for (like the purpose of the project was to teach us how to mount because that would be so important in our careers as graphic designers) my friend cut the tip of his finger off. it wouldnt stop bleeding, i had to perform first aid. this wouldnt have been so bad if it werent like 10 min before the project was due. Someone else had to finish mounting the board so he wouldnt get a grade deduction, and his project ended up getting to class before he did because we were still in the bathroom trying to stop the bleeding.
and now the students dont have to do mounting anymore because the school realized that no one outside of the school did it
Yay I'm early .3. I love all of your videos,they are ALL great! Also notification squad ❤️❤️❤️

The title alone makes me feel better about all of my embarrassing school memories
All of the stories were great! The first one has to be my favorite. It's like something straight out of anime. One of those things that you have to see in order to believe.
Early squad!!!
You've been making alot of videos lately, I'M LOVING IT!
I'm so sorry, that sounds so painful! Don't feel bad. Life is absolutely embarrassing for most artists.
PLEASE MAKE MORE ART SCHOOL VIDEOS
i’ve been watching a lot of your tutorials lately and they have been helping me so much !! i’ve just started digital art (i’ve been doing traditional for years) and honestly have no idea what i’m doing !!!! thankyou for ur advice and also for being so interesting and engaging to listen to :33
*GASP* So The Great Lavender Towne WENT TO ART SCHOOL In My Home Town!
Me too!!
Lol evacuating in my school would never work. When there's a fire drill, there's just a long line to one exit, and I never get through it in time. So if there really was a fire Id be toasted!
* has 5 cuts from her last art class on the left hand. *
* whistles innocenntly * No, I didnt played around with the paper cutter thing... what are you talking about? * cough *
I also had a thing happen to me similar to the cut story... one day in the middle of class my nose started bleeding out of nowhere, and this was the worst nosebleed I have ever had in my life. It was bleeding so much and I was really embarrassed, so I tried to just cover it with my hand and ask to go to the bathroom without anybody noticing. But that didn’t work out, there was so much blood that when I asked the teacher if I could go to the bathroom she freaked out and the whole class started staring at me. So I can understand how you felt.
I know this is something weird to say, but we both have a very similar way to sketch lol
The second story made me shiver so much.
I always stick around in the end to hear when you say: "lablablabla" :D
That 3rd story reminds me of the time when I was in 6th grade and I had just gotten a thing to make me "hear quiet things" from a spy set, and it started to screech really load during a test because it picked up some noises. I had forgotten to to turn it off-
I don’t know what to comment so...
🎀🎀🎀🎀🎀🎀🎀
Pastel Panda i wuv ur art so much
Ta'Corra Brieno thank you! :D
It was kinda off topic,but you’re comment was still very nice ❤️
oh my god the xacto knife story is ABSOLUTELY something i would do. i've had accidents (granted, smaller) in school or other similar environments in which i was just. way too filled with social anxiety to do anything like tell the teacher.
The real moral of the second story is to always cut away from yourself.
Honesty I relate with the first story-wind in Calgary is INTENSE. Especially when you’re in the downtown area in winter because it’s so cold and wind chill exists ❄️
"I didn't tell this to anyone, because I don't want anyone to know."
*uploads it to youtube*
I LIVE IN CALGARY!!! I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW YOU STUDIED HERE BEFORE THIS VIDEO AND I’M SHOCKED!
NEVER CLICKED THIS FAST HOLY LAST TIME I WAS THIS EARLY KRIS WAS STILL IN EXO
IM CRYING ISTG
Triggered
D-,;
The poses you’re u drew in the portfolio story were really cool??? I could feel the FEAR.
I've done the cutting the hand open thing, except it was when I was a Crew Leader and it was the first day I was meeting the 6 people I was gonna be supervising. Slashed my hand open cutting an apple and needed stitches. So embarrassing.
Someone who I know rode their bike up a skateboard ramp in first grade and had to get fourteen stitches on her leg
Wait you went to school in Alberta!!! That’s so cool! I also happen to live in Alberta. :) it always brightens my day to find out that someone who content I love also comes from the same place as me.
I cant wait for art school love your videos
So how's art school?
I’ve been so busy this weekend but I’m so glad I can finally sit down and watch some UA-cam, especially Haley :,)
For future reference with carrying portfolios, try to slip both of your arms into it and bring the straps straight up your shoulders to your neck. You might have to hold that, but it might help share the weight between your shoulders
The paper cutting one really hit home for me.
My foot is actually in pain right now just remembering it!
We used to have about 3 acres of land that sat next to the woods. It wasn't straight up wilderness, every now and then you could just faintly hear someone playing the sax or clarinet on the other side of the woods, but it was still pretty dense when you consider the rest of the area (town and such). We actually had to stop going into the woods a couple years before we moved because there were coyotes that had taken up roaming there.
In any case! I divided up our property into three parts of what I considered each 'acre'. Horribly inaccurate. There was the acre along the woods and also where out house sat, there was the acre of pretty open land (literally one apple tree and the pirate ship-esque swing set my dad built us), and finally the acre with my mom's garden and the garage. Which was detached and at the end of our driveway, only useful for the vintage car my dad had (he inherited the family's chrysler dealership. I miss that place, haha!) our bikes and a whole lot of yard work/gardening stuff. It was like walking into an abandoned hardware store (it was messy as all hell). There was a teardrop driveway between the acre with the woods and the acre with my mom's garden. With three acres comes A LOT of trees, and therefore, A LOT of leaves. What did we do with them? After we raked them, we'd get them in the tractor, then our dad would dump them in the woods. We had our own supply of mulch/compost! One year, my sister and I were assigned to loading up the wheelbarrow with the decomposed leaves and take them to the garden where my mom and brother were spreading it along with other work that needed to be done there.
I was using a pitchfork to do this. Great. Fine. Well, up until we finished filled the wheelbarrow. I told my sister I'd wheel it over. I stabbed the pitchfork in the ground and walked over to it. Well. I tried to. I instantly fell onto my hands and knees. There was a moment of confusion, I hadn't realized what had happened. It wasn't until I went to get back up that I moved my foot back and it came out of shock. I put one of the tines in my foot! Luckily it was old and blunt, it hadn't gotten to the bone. *Just my artery*. While my sister, who was known to over-exaggerate my injuries to our mother, ran to get help, I was there screaming bloody murder. It wasn't until she told her it was bleeding like a fountain that our mom picked up the pace!
That's one of my best stories to exemplify my all around bad luck xD
Just a little extra bit; I wasn't taken to the hospital until a few days later when my nurse aunt said it was starting to look a little gangrene-y. And even then it was just the clinic we went to. Good times, good times.
I love ur videos so much
I mean that’s a great ad for the alarm thingie. Works great!
OOF I'm from Calgary and the wind here does suck like a few days ago it was only supposed to be -25 but because of the wind chill it ended up being -34. The worst part was we had a play at my school that I was in but I had to walk otherwise I could't go lmao
That cutting your thumb story brought back a very strange memory of mine from secondary school. Very similar situation.
It was in a Design Tech class in year 9 - we were making a lamp from scratch (ended up failing that one because it almost electricuted my teacher) and we were using scalpels to cut out some fine plastic material. Much like Hailey, I slipped because I was tired and cut a huge bit of my thumb open. Unfortunately I wasn't so lucky and it went about halfway into my thumb before I had time to react. Now, take into account I've had social anxiety for as long as I can remember, and this teacher, though he liked me very much, had a history of flipping out at the smallest of things. He threw a chair at across a room because my friend forgot his planner. Luckily for me, he was very nice to people who were quiet and listened, which I generally did. Unfortunately I was still too scared to ask for help immediately and absolutely HATED making scenes because a few students in the class were a part of a massive bullying problem for me, so instead I followed him around for 10 minutes whilst he finished off talking to some other students and turned around
"Now what can I do for you?", with a lovely smile on his face...
And I just lifted my now blood soaked arm, sleeves dyed red and skin stained, and I'm not even kidding when all the blood drained from his face and he went
"OH MY GOD WHAT THE HELL YOU'RE BLEEDING" and literally jumped over a chair with me being half dragged half thrown across the room to the sink and started washing it for me and panicked for a bit before telling people to go get the nurse before laughing at the situation and going
"Why didn't you make a scene??"
And I just shrugged and he just went
"You don't have to be scared of me"
And from that day on, I never hid any injury from him again. Ended up trusting him more than I did the school nurse after that encounter.
Hi LavenderTowne I am a huge huge fan of you I love you are an inspiration for me 💗
okay I wanted to ask you if you going to do new comics cause I read your 2 comics recently and I loved them I was soooo sad that I finished them in just 2 hours ''I wanted more from my fav writer'' (this is what I said when I finished to read them😢)
It's so cool hearing about the city i live in!! It really adds a nice personal touch for me on your videos!
The pose in that first drawing is confusing my brain.
a to the g to the u to the std
I'm d boy because I'm from D
haven't even watched this but judging by the title i know for a fact this will be amazing as always
9:48 MAYBE I AM THE TEACHER MUAHAHAHAH
You aren't 😊
ur voice is so soothing i just listen to all ur videos in the background while i draw
Agdkadkaleaoprbsknwj I live in Calgary, when you mentioned acad before I just automatically assumed you were an art school that was somewhere else because iddkkkkkkk ... yes wind, oof
I like how when you start off the video your voice is so cute and high pitched and then it gets progressively lower in pitch
My life is an embarrassment
My dad got me one of those shrill protective alarm things for Christmas except the thing with that one is that the string part of it is what makes it go off. You’d think it would be the massive button on it to set it off, no, you have to yank the string out of the little machine and it is the LOUDEST thing I have ever heard. I can’t imagine what that had to be like. That’d be so hysterically mortifying and shocking, I don’t know what I’d do if that happened to me in class. 😖
My best friend goes to art school, but I don't. Should I go to art school? 🤔🤔
BendysFan I would recommend it if you’re going for a career in art, but if you want it as a hobby you could probably just take a class on it
BendysFan if that’s what you wanna do then go for it, but don’t just go because your best friend is going. You need to do what YOU wanna do.
teenagerfrommarss I am not really sure if I'm going, I am gonna ask my parents :D
If you decide to go, do as much research as you can. Stay away from unaccreddited art schools like the art institute
Only if your good or can learn, and want it as a career
The keychain alarm, saaaaame. Mine went off in my pocket in class. I'd say those things aren't even worth carrying, just get a Bowie knife or something lol
i loved this video
gosh I relate to that first story a lot! I haven't gotten crushed under it but I have certainly had that updraft effect it's terrifying
3:12 *OOF*
man if those are the most embarrassing stories you have, you have it pretty good.
your teacher made 4 account just to dislike
amazing video
I love how your drawings show so much emotion even though its so simple
I want to go to art school, but my dad doesn't want to, he thinks that you can't earn a living out of it...
Erty Draws luckily it's not up to him. But hes right you're also probably not going to make a whole lot of money doing it.
It's hard, but if you fight for it you can do it.
Maybe you could start doing commissions for your art to show your dad that it's possible to make money on art.
It’s your life you know
I relate so much to the last one, because I’ve actually brought two schools (my high school and the elementary attached to it) into an fire drill by opening the kiln too early
EARLY SQUAD WHERE YOU AT???
Edit: plz comment
Chocolate Vasia You're not really early...
HERE
Three years late😪
Oh my gosh, pained laughter, I'm actually lightheaded at the second story because I'm like. Having flashbacks to the time I cut myself that badly. The blade had just been replaced and no one thought to tell me??? So I went to cut with the same force that i used with the old horrible dull ones and IMAGINE MY SURPRISE when the blade cut through everything - including my thumb, like butter.
So much sympathy pain/remembered pain.
I want to see you animate
The second one is too relatable! I'm a fashion student and while i was freehand machine embroidering, I accidentally sewed through my finger! oAo The freehand foot is higher off the fabric than the straight presser foot so you can move your fabric more easily, and it's really easy to catch your finger against it...That's what I thought had happened until the yellow thread I was embroidering with started turning orange and the girl working on the machine next to me pointed out that I was bleeding all over the shirt I was working on ;;;. I'd managed to sew through my finger just above where my fingernail ends...Thankfully the rule was that if the needle didn't break off and/or if it went straight through, you wouldn't need to go to the hospital, so I basically had to rinse the blood off my hands, then walk down 5 flights of stairs from the studio to the ground floor to ask the first-aid desk for a bandaid LOL
I managed to fix the shirt too and hide the bloodstain so everything turned out okay LOL
Calgary? Are you canadian!!
artivia No, she moved there to go to ACAD (Albeta College of Art and Design)
Once i was in class (i think it was the 2nd week of school)
And my phone started ringing *really* loud, and my ringtone was pretty annoying and embarrassing.
But my first thought wasnt "oh no my phone is ringing!"
It was
"Oh hey cool someone has the same ringtone as me"
And it kept ringing for a few minutes, and the class had stopped at that point because everyone was checkin their phones to see where it was coming from. Then
I had the realization "o shit its coming from my phone" and everyone is staring at me as i quietly just reach into my bag.. And turn it off.
*anxiety level 100*
HOLD THE PHONE. you're Canadian?
DawnCloud Draws nah, she just moved there to go to ACAD
Cloudd *drops the phone*
Your art style is the biggest influence for me trying to find my style. Im struggling but i like to create more things when watching your videos.❤❤❤
18th! (Impressive ikr) and ON TIME SQUAD
"I can't believe that such a cartoonish thing happened to me"
That reminds me of when I was in 7th grade and I was going back to my classroom after the break and I was distracted talking to my friend and suddenly some random GIANT boy appears and he was running in the opposite direction, we collide and I just get to the other side of the corridor like when a character is hit during a fight and the impact makes them "fall" to the other side of the battleground
Hey i'm an animation student and my drawing skills are far inferrior to everyone else's. Could you give me some advice?
Chris Clarke I don't do much animation, but after watching other people I suggest using references to draw things, and trace over them if you need to. If you're also having problems doing smooth movements, try drawing your character before, after, or during the movement, then in the animation software draw in any lines you think you need to smoothly connect the picture. Think of it as sort of connecting the dots, it may help you get the animation where you want it to go with a clear and easy path to follow. Don't hesitate to take notes on how you want parts to move, too! And have as many layers as you need. Don't animate everything on one layer, you want to be able to move different parts without the worry of messing up another part of the animation. I hope I helped you!
I cut my hand open with one of those blades, as well.. .but mine happened at work and I had to go to the er because a fountain of blood went into the air like something out of a cartoon. I ended up being rushed to the ER because I had to get stitches. The flashbacks are horrifying. Thank goodness it was not my drawing hand. Interesting to know I watch an artist who has gone through bad cuts too :')
