there may be people out there who want to be in my position, or another creator's position..

but does a silly little badge even matter? being a creator may seem like a big thing, and well, yes, it can be. but, don't feel like you're not good enough if your application comes back and it hasn't been accepted - strive to be what YOU want to be and don't ever put yourself under the crushing pressure of simply having to need a small icon next to your name. YOU and your CONTENT are all that matter here -- not how many followers you have, or how many likes your posts get, or what people say about you or what you do. -- all that matters is you are happy and thriving doing what you love doing most - whether that is drawing, animating, making music, creating games or just here for the hell of it and to interact with people who lift you up. don't ever feel the need to degrade yourself because of seeing other people and the things THEY have achieved

focus solely on YOU. what do you want to do on here? what are your goals? any people you want to meet? what makes you feel HAPPY and PASSIONATE, and what is that special spark that keeps you motivated?
