Yesterday, I was tending to the blog, looking at the stats, the poll, changing the background, and some things like that.
As I saw the stats/views, I realized they had skyrocketed from where they were at not too long ago.
I really, truly, wanted to thank you for this tremendous accomplishment, just before AJFC's 2nd Birthday. This blog is really, my pride and joy. It never even crossed my mind that my small blog, that I was going to do with my friends, might get 443 views in one day, and all together have 120,000 views. I'm so grateful for all the commenters and viewers, and am so happy with this little community.
In all honesty, some days I feel almost prideful over this blog. Somedays I feel I'm comparing myself to others, feeling that I'm a better writer than others, and really, I've been thinking about this, and we should really be working together. We shouldn't feel prideful, or think one is better than the other. A discussion came up a while back, on whose the 'leader' in the blogging community, some people thought it was me, Swirl, or no one. Truthfully, there is no 'leader' in this community.
So, this summer, I decided we should all work on a project in this blogging community, instead of feeling prideful, or stuff like that. What kind of a project? That is up to all you Blogger's. Could be a writing project, a project involving graphics, or something completely different. Put your thoughts in the comments below, then we could all talk there, and discuss which idea we think would be best to turn into a reality! Whose with me?

Secondly, I would like to discuss a party that my best friend, Coolcat, is having for her Birthday! I couldn't ask for a better best friend, so I wanted to get the word out about this party, so we could celebrate her.

Comment down below if you'll be able to come!
I remember that June 9th of 2016, we were celebrating Coolcat's Birthday on Animal Jam ^.^!
Last year me, Karalee, and Twirlytree, came to the party. Hopefully this year even more people will be able to come. You deserve it, CC 😊.

Heres todays Bible verse!
Proverbs 17:17
A friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need.
A friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need.
Remember, God made YOU!
I totally agree, when one of us has a bully problem, we should ALL stand up against the bully(s) we should ALL help the person who is getting bullied, as AJ bloggers, we need to look out for each other, watch each others backs, be honest, but never be mean. The whole AJ Blogging community is like one big family, even for people who cant comment (Like Custard) they are part of this. If they don't have their own blog or write for one, they are part of this if they comment.
ReplyDeleteIt's a duty we all hold.
Looking out for each other.
Never putting ourselves or others down.
Trying to support new bloggers
I won't be able to make it D: D: If it was on a Friday, then I would be able too, but 9:00 on a Tuesday has no chance of me coming :( Have fun though! :)
Totally!
DeleteIt is like a family in a way. We all have different talents, but they all point back to one thing, writing/blogging.
Aww darn! Maybe next time :)
Remember, God made YOU!
Yes, I agree, no blogger should compare/make others feel bad.
ReplyDeleteI will not be attending the party due to feeling uncomfortable and bullied around some people. Thanks!
Yeah.. I'm hoping this project helps me with those feelings.. why do I feel that way >~<
DeleteBullies? I don't know of any bullies in the blogger community.. Sorry you feel that way!
:(
Remember, God made YOU!
It's okay! It's not your fault!
DeleteI think the project should be a combination of all of those things! Perhaps we could tell some sort of story together (maybe a huge blogger portal story collab?) and each blogger can contribute what they're best at. Bloggers who are great at writing stories could write, like you, Karalee, Lostfairy, AJkraft. Jammers who make videos could maybe make video segments of the story, like me (I can't think of any other bloggers who make a lot of videos at the moment except Scooter and I don't know if they would want to join in). Jammers who are great at drawing could provide illustrations of characters and moments in the story, and perhaps make comic book pages for their parts of the story, like Karalee, me, lostfairy, swirlshine, flora, arcticstar and all the other talented blogger artists. Jammers who are good with digital editing could use screenshots from Animal Jam and edit them together to tell the story (AJkraft and Scooter are good with making edits, and so many other bloggers as well).
ReplyDeleteIt could be a huge story-writing collab! We could work out the plot and assign parts of the story to every Jammer. It would probably take a while to complete, but it sounds like a great way for all of the AJ bloggers to create something together by doing what each of them are good at! What do you think?
Unfortunately, I will be unable to attend the party, because it will be very late in my time, and I'm unable to use the computer that late in the day. However, HAPPY BIRTHDAY COOLCAT ^.^
Do you think we could do that project idea I suggested, Gracie? Because now I REALLY want to do that XD
OH MY GOODNESS
DeleteYES
YES
YES
Oo! Me, you, Gfox, and Tiger could maybe do some videos! We ish all YouTubers XD
This is an amazing idea, Cat! We should totally do this! :o
Aw, okay! Maybe next time you can come :)
YES. WE SHOULD. XD
Remember, God made YOU!
YESYESYESYES
DeleteYassssssssssssss
DeleteOh my! That's such a good idea! I would totally help. :D
DeleteO.O That sounds awesome! All the parts sound cool, but I would absolutely ADORE doing some of the writing, along with Mega!

Oohhh.... How about a big story?
ReplyDeleteWriting is something all we bloggers have in common- it's what we do! I personally love the stories that all you guys have written. A big collaborative story, where each blogger adds another chapter until the story is finished could be a ton of fun. Whoever first started would be able to do the first chapter. There wouldn't be a set rule as to how the story is going to go (just don't be rude, don't discredit, and don't make a joke of it)
Each blogger would have to work with what the person before them wrote, to see where the story goes! It would be pretty cool!
About Coolcat's Birthday: That's so cool! My birthday is on June 7th! Who knew they were so close!
I'd love to go, but I have piano lessons on that day, and I'll be in class during the time of the party. I also have exams to study for so I probably won't be able to make it D:
Hope you have tons of fun!

Yesssssss!! Iconically Cat suggested the same thing XDD ^^
DeleteOoh, happy early Birthday, Arctic! I must make you a masterpiece for your Birthday! :o I should probably do these masterpieces early.. Gfox's Birthday is today, and I still need to make her a masterpiece, whoops! Need to do that when we get back home..
Aw, we'll miss all you guys!
Remember, God made YOU!
Happy early second birthday, AJFC! This blog is so inspirational and I've loved reading it for the past two years! I hope to continue reading it for years to come! Also, happy birthday CoolCat! Sadly I will not be able to make it to the party! :(
ReplyDeleteThank you, Naffy!
DeleteAww, that's such a big complement, from a blogger whose blogging on such a popular blog. Thanks for commenting on here, Naffy :)
Aw alright, hopefully we'll see ya at the next parties!
Remember, God made YOU!
I think, We should do a big skit! like a movie! THAT WOULD BE SOOOOO FUN! :OOO
