UPDATE!
Everything is good now! I've finally paid back everything I owe to everyone! (money-wise, now I just need to work on finishing my commissions LMAO)
Thanks to everyone for the support! And I'm really glad to have had you there by my side, while I was facing such problems.
I WILL be closing commissions VERY soon (haven't decided when, but yeah..)
Scroll down to the bottom for the updates.
So something really bad happened to me today.
And I'm really scared.
So this weekend I had to go back to my aunts house, because from now on, until I can find a proper job, I need to work for her at her shows on the weekends.
She sells stuff at festivals.
And so it happened at some kind of festival 2 hours away from Toronto.
Anyways, so I was kind of carrying something large and heavy, it's like a metal stand, but my hands slipped and well. There was a car that it landed on.
Actually, it not just landed on that car, it placed like FIVE HUGE DENTS on the front. It's so noticeable, you can see it from like miles away. I utterly ruined the car with my clumsiness.
Now I have to like pay hundreds to thousands of dollars (not yet confirmed how much exactly how much yet though) to compensate a very angry elderly lady.
Of all the stupid, clumsy accidents I've ever done, this is by far the worst .
I don't even have that kind of money--I don't even have a proper job!
Some people might think I'm lying about this, and I'm just trying to scam people out of their money, but seriously, if I was going to do that, I wouldn't write about some stupid car scratching incident.
I don't even know what I should do, since I never had this happen to me and like, I never had to owe so much money to anyone!
The best thing I can do is open up commissions, or more adopts, but I'm not even sure I can do that because of my parents.
They want to punish me good, and I might have to deactivate DA but I'm saying "might" because it also might not happen. So I don't want you guys to all be expecting me to deactivate k, because I'm trying my best to stay on here.
I'll update with more info, but please pray for me.
I appreciate everything, like advertisements, but I don't want to seem as if I just need advertising for popularity or anything like that. I just want to get my situation out, so that when or if I open my commissions, some people might be able to understand why my prices are a bit higher and etc.
I really hope she doesn't charge more than $500, but judging from the dents I made, I think it's fair if she charged much more.
I just want to crawl somewhere and cry like my usual pathetic self. I've never gotten in such a bad situation like this before and I just want everything to end.
Heck I only have like $50 in my bank account. How am I going to do this?
Update #1:
So apparently, she can't use her car insurance on minor things such as scratches or dents. I never really studied or looked into insurance and stuff, but my aunt says that insurance can be like that.
So the amount I should be aiming for is around $500 for now, since I don't know for sure, I'll just go for that amount until I know.
I'm just happy that the amount isn't like in the thousands. A little part of me would die if it was ><
I'll be opening my commissions up, until my parents figure out how to punish me. You will get refund if it ends up that I will be deactivating in the end.
//sobbing
All the things I could buy with that money--
Now I know for sure that I'll never be asked to help load and unload again.
Update #2:Ok! so good news!Well, it's not something extremely good, and not something that will make you guys happy, but it's good for me, because I really doubt my parents (mainly my dad) will make me deactivate now.
They wanted to punish me, but they notice that my paypal balance (well, actually I show them, because they can't access my paypal) has risen quite a lot during the past few days, and I think that they won't make me deactivate anymore!
As long as I can prove that I could make money here, things are...sort of fine xD(When I told them they way how points worked, my dad thinks it's a waste of time, but when it's involving real money, he gets serious. I guess he never really understood the point system lol)
But only as long as the commissions and stuff don't get out of control and start affecting my school work and studies--because then, that would be really bad. (Started school today ; _ ; )
But thank you so much guys, I'm seriously so happy that so many kind watchers and friends actually helped and supported me--by advertising, donating, or even just commenting saying that they support me and are here for me!I seriously get so happy when people actually care about me, not online, but my real life situations!It makes DA feel a little bit more real now ^////^
Update #3:Okay, so guys, thanks a bunch for helping me!With your help, I finally got around $200! (and I sent it all to my aunt today)I need $300 more, but I think I'll be able to get to that goal pretty quickly, with the thanks to everyone here!I really appreciate all the advertisements you guys are doing, and especially the donors!The donations got me like half of the money I have so far, and I'm so greatful!
So the elderly lady is asking that I pay her the full amount tomorrow, but since, as you know, I don't have it all yet, I asked her to wait another week or so.Worse case scenario, my parents will pay the remaining for me, and then I'll need to pay them back PLUS INTEREST (idk how much they'll charge me per day, but...hope it wont be much, since they're supposed to be MY PARENTS?!)-.-
What wonderful parents I have ; _ ;
I hope I don't need to do that, but I guess there's nothing else I can do.My cousin claims I need to pay back $500 (I guess their estimate was right) but....I'm kinda suspicious, maybe their trying to take some money from me too---slkdjflksdjfsdjf nevermind, I shouldn't start suspecting my cousins LOLbut its just so weird, since its the exact amount that they estimated
VERY SUSPICIOUS.Well there's nothing I can do, cept pay back the $500.So well, $300 more to go! How hard can that...be? //SOBS
Update #4:OMGJUST.I'M REALLY CLOSE.
$250 MOREJUST THAT MUCH MORE
HOLY CRAP GUYSJUST
LIKE 2 MORE DAYS
I WILL DIE--OH CRAP
I'LL BE GOING TO THE AFTERLIFE NEXT WEEK, IF YOU DON'T SEE ME ACTIVE EVER AGAIN.

Update #6:
Ok, so I'm around like $50-ish short, give or take
And I'll be closing my commissions very soon.
I'll not only be closing my commissions for a long time, but I might also be changing the prices.
I'm sorry if you aren't happy with that, but before I reopen my commissions, I plan on improving as much as I can, so that my art will be worth the money.
For the title, I meant to say: 'not reopening FOR AWHILE' but there wasn't enough space (because there's a limit of characters you can have in titles for journals--)
But yeah, I plan to open commissions maybe...in a year? Maybe more.
Haha, I have a lot on my to-do list, but I guess now and then, I might open up pixel/icon commissions.
So if you're interested in commissioning me for my current style, I suggest you do it asap, because I never know when I'll be opening my commissions again after I close it. (I probably won't be opening it for a good while)
It's actually been a year since I fully opened my commissions, believe it or not.
