my ecuadorean child was so happy<3 + wanna do me a favor?

Okay, so the title seems a little weird unless I explain it. So my art class did this thing called the Memory Project, which is this thing that this guy does where he takes pictures of orphans in foreign countries and he sends the pictures to different art classes and schools to paint the portraits and then those portraits are given to the orphans. It's really cool and I had a lot of fun doing it. My little girl's name was Yaneth<3

Anywho, we finished the portraits in early February and then we sent them to the guy to bring to the kids. Well, my art teacher got an email with a video of the kids getting their portraits and like the process of how they sent them out with the guy talking about the project, and then we got pictures of our kids holding their portraits.

AND MY GIRL WAS IN THE VIDEO. Which is shocking because the video included all twenty orphanages that was included in the project (there were like 2,000 kids or something like that). And oh my lord I flipped. Like she was only on it for like literally two seconds but my portrait like flashed towards the camera and I was all,

"GUISE. GUISE, THAT'S MY KID!!!"

I. Was. So. Excited.

And she looked happy<3 I'll make another journal with the picture of her holding the portrait when my art teacher emails it to me :D

So I have a new story up called The Truth Does Not Exist and so far I have a lot of reviews on the first chapter, but I haven't had any feedback on the second. So would anyone like to review the second chapter for me? I'd be willing to check out something of yours in return :) A quasi-comment swap? Mindf*ck.
