ā€œPlease do not panic. :sparkles:Your art matters!:sparkles: No matter how you do in our competition.ā€ from youngartsā€™s twitter awwwwww

Do you know if there were any high school freshmen (aged 15) who were Young Arts Finalist?

theyā€™re so kind, it makes me feel so warm and loved even though I know Iā€™ll be hating them soon haha

on twitter it says youngarts canā€™t be messaged?

i got a scam call just now hehe

They should start calls soon (which means that my anxiety is currently peaking)

So they only start calls in the afternoon?

They most likely only start calling in the afternoon b/c they know ppl have school. They start and end later during notification week.

Thatā€™s what happened yesterday per EST. Iā€™m hoping that it is not so random that they would just call in the morning, night, etc. to different regions (with no categorization). Perhaps they do, but if no one got a call in the morning, Iā€™m assuming that they will start calling in the afternoon (a bulk of the calls probably happen over the first few days too so it wouldnā€™t make sense if no one gets called today)

oof this is very nervewracking

any calls today so far?

Itā€™s been so quiet today haha Idk if I should be nervous or not

Ikr - itā€™s so strange. Maybe people are getting called and arenā€™t reporting it on social media? Personally, I would start typing frantically and use all caps or something though I donā€™t know about everyone else.

I feel like people would announce if they got calls. Maybe Yarts hasnā€™t started yet?

@neptunecleo Where I am, a lot of peopleā€™s houses lost power and such (Idk how the phone lines have faired in the snow though). Maybe they decided not to call because of this?

yeah my guess is they havenā€™t started today

still not sure if they are announcing any more writing onesā€¦ my guess is not, but they were encouraging on twitter so who knows (but that could just be because they donā€™t want to officially say they are done yet even if they are)

My stress is high
I think Iā€™ll cry
My mind contains
Just Youngarts pains

(haha please make me a finalist for poetry Iā€™m begging)
