ANNOUNCEMENTS: Dec 29
Last announcements of the year!!!!! :O

If you have not yet already done so, please post to December's Activity Check! (If you've resolved to drop a character, please do us a favour and let us know here or in the Dropbox so we're not awkwardly emailing you later to be like "hey... what's up...")

January's plot calendar will be posted on Saturday, December 31 at 10 AM Mountain Time. (If you need help figuring out when that will be for you, take a look at the green indicator here.) We've learned our lesson from December, so there will be less IC/OOC's, but hopefully characters will be able to devote proper focus to the ones which are coming up. Three words: Parent-Teacher Conferences.

Happy New Year!!! Here's a little meme for everyone to go out on...

Character Name:
Plans For Next Year: Anything you want to do with your character in the new year? Give us a little sneak peek.
Alternate PB: Was there another PB you almost used? Or a PB for a different incarnation of the character? Or if you had to pick another PB for them, who would it be?
How would that have changed them?: PBs have different moods and feelings, and can change a character a lot. How would your alternate PB have changed your character?
GIF: YOU CAN POST TWO GIFS, in case you want to show a side by side of the alternate PB and the canon PB.

Character Name: Wilhemina Tran
Plans For Next Year: Uh god, be more active? Mina is never going to be my most active character but I'd like to start pushing her to... make friends? lmao
Alternate PB: Ellen Wong was the first PB I liked, but I did go through basically every single directory with an asian girl PB because I was torn on her (she's playing a high school student but the actress is 30 in these icons). For various reasons, I really really wanted an Asian-American or Asian-Canadian actress, and Ellen Wong's facial expressions were too hilarious for me to pass up. But I aaaalmost went with Jessika Van.
How would that have changed them?: Jessika Van would've resulted in a Mina who smiled a lot more and tried to fake charm/pleasantness, but I ended favouring a Mina who just... has a terrible temper and is constantly complaining and does not bother to charm people at all.

	omg I loooove Jessika Van in Awkward. But I also can't imagine Mina as anyone other than Ellen Wong. I love Mina's face so much. It makes me sad sometimes that Essie really doesn't look anything like her. :C AND MORE MINA IN GENERAL PLEASE OMG. EVERY MINA APPEARANCE IS A TREAT. (Reply to this) (Parent)
