i have never been the most creative or talented in my event entries, but i have been blessed enough to win/place in a few events during the last couple of years!
View attachment 512391 - the very first special collectible i won was the ocean pearl, as i was a member of the winning crew (the poliwags
) during 2021 camp bell tree! i’m gonna be honest that i haven’t used it in lineups all that much since i don’t really have any ideas for it
, but it is still such a beautiful collectible, and i am still so proud of the work i and my fellow poliwags put in to win it! it reminds me of all of the beautiful friends and memories i made during that event, and i’ll forever chersh it
even if it’s currently collecting dust in my inventory 2021 camp was actually also the first time that i placed in an event! i didn’t win an exclusive collectible from it, but i did tie for 3rd place in my cabin for “tales from our travels”! art is most definitely not my forte, which made placing in that event even more mind-boggling to me, but i am still so honoured and was so grateful for the bonus event currency i won from it!
View attachment 512392 - the first event collectible i won on my own was a special snowflake for “holiday landscape”, “lyrical limericks”, and “tiny toy jamboree” during tbt’s season of giving event last year! it’s been almost a year since i’ve won it, and i am honestly still in disbelief LOL. never in a million years did i think i would ever win an event favourite collectible, and i still can’t believe that i actually did
i still do a double take every time i see it in my inventory or come up with a lineup with it cause it’s like, i have that??? i won that?? this gorgeous collectible is actually in my inventory rn????? i keep waiting for it to disappear cause there’s
no way, but i am forever astounded and grateful
my “christmas countdown” entry also made it to community polls, and while i didn’t win, i’m still so shocked that it made it to polls at all
like you’re telling me
my art was up there with so many talented tbt artists??? i can’t-
View attachment 512393 - and lastly, i somehow managed to win a glorious rainbow moon for “galactic gyroids” during this year’s camp bell tree!
i love anything rainbow so, so much, and i never thought i would win any of the rainbow event favourite collectibles ever, and the fact that i did is just… wow
i also managed to land top 3 in my crew for “common room design” and “personal preference kit”, and i genuinely have no words for how in awe and grateful i am.
this might not count, but i also win a disco ball egg during oblivia’s 12 days of collectibles raffle last year as well! i had never won a forum raffle before, and waking up to that is one of the most beautiful and cherished gifts i got last year
i’m not sure if there’ll be any more raffle or event favourite collectibles in my future, but i am forever thankful for the ones that i do have, and the memories attached to all of them
