Hang Out and Post

Or maybe, it's the District of ColAmbia!

Did you ever think of that?

[Divya Bean]

I love going to DC for the Cherry Blossom Festival. It smells and looks so nice. :)

[jumpingbeans]

I've gone to DC before for sightseeing. I loved the Air and Space museum, and the Washington Monument.

[Spritzie]

I've never made it to DC, though my sister has. It's on my list of places to eventually visit.

[Divya Bean]

It is just a two hours or so for a train ride for me. :) Not a whole flight like Spritzie! :laughingsmiley:

[Spritzie]

My sister met some friends out there, and they stayed in PA somewhere, I think. Or was it Virgina? I don't remember. I think they went to NYC too. But that could have been a different trip. (She travels too much too keep up with.)

[jumpingbeans]

I travel often too. It's so much fun!

[Divya Bean]

I'm in PA! :laughingsmiley: I'm a traveler too. I love love love travelling! I have been to almost every (well known no offense!) country in Europe and Asia. *nods with pride*

[Spritzie]

I don't get to travel much. The whole time I was growing up, my family made 4 big trips. Basically to the 4 US corners: Alaska, New York, Florida, and California. I've been to probably about 12-15 states. But I've only been out of the country twice.

[Divya Bean]

:laughingsmiley: That is actual really cool Spritzie! (That you have been to the corners.) I have been to every state in the US except for Iowa, Arkansas, and Oklahoma.

[jumpingbeans]

I really want to go to Australia. It's my dream place. I love all of the animals there.

I'd also like to go to France or Greece. They sound cool too.

On another note, 13 more posts for me until I'm an FM!!!

[Spritzie]

My biggest To Visit places are Egypt, Germany, Ireland, and Japan. Germany because my family is German. Ireland, because the husband's family is Irish. And Egypt because I love the culture. Japan because he loves the culture.

[jumpingbeans]

Egypt. I knew I was forgetting somewhere I wanted to go.

Anyway, it would be so cool to see the pyramids and the sphinx and whatnot.

[Spritzie]

I used to have some friends either from there, or that lived there, that would send me pictures. That's why I named my cat, Cairo.

[jumpingbeans]

Yeah, I knew the name Cairo sounded familiar. That's the capital, right?

[Spritzie]

Yeah it is. I just loved the name, culture, everything, so I figured it would be perfect.

[jumpingbeans]

Yeah. It would be a good name for a Desert Neopet, or a petpet.

It would have to be a petpet, I'm sure it's been taken as a pet name for a very long time.

[jumpingbeans]

Yeah, I meant with an extra name or something attached, like maybe an Egyptian god.

[Spritzie]

I went through the Egyptian god names, when I was looking for a name for a Jubjub that I was going to be painting Desert. It's amazing what names are taken, that you'd never expect.

[Unstream]

Well people probably have found them already if you did.

 

How about doing something that sounds similar to a Egyptian god? Like Osyrus (or something like that) instead of Osiris?

[CAV of Gang Green]

Cute art! I looked her up and I have to say... artists like her inspire me especially to not give up so easily. Even though she's blind, she still does what she loves and has a positive attitude. :D

 

What..............she is? I never saw that mentioned on her DA page.

 

EDIT: Oh. I didn't see her newest poll. That explains why I didn't know.

 

But that makes her even more of an inspiration. It's why I want to draw: to amount to what she can do.

That's what I ended up doing for the Jubjub. I actually used a Egyptian name generator, and just kept going until I found one I liked.

 

I got lucky with my Draik's name. It ended up being my favorite choice, and her name is Slavic for what flying fiery serpents. I was shocked that wasn't taken.

[jumpingbeans]

I've got my soon-to-be Desert Grundo named The_Lost_Desert_Fan. I know it's not creative, but it's a name.

[Spritzie]

I spend forever picking the perfect name, if I have something in mind for them. But then again, sometimes names just pop into my head. Like I'm going to be painting one of my Jubjub's fire, and the name "HeatedDiscussion" popped into my head. Or "HolidayAngst" for my Christmas Jubjub, because it looks like it fell into a box of Christmas decorations.
