forever and always! 
And I figure I should ask you this... I've been in five art classes. None of them have helped and... well it makes me feel like crap. But see my parents really want to help so they want to sign me up for a very serious artclass ($700 serious) and well... I'm wondering if you think I shoud take it? It's like an art school where it goes on the whole year.. so opinion?
and If you got any tips for me, Do tell!

Wow xD; Not really sure why you're asking me 
I would say it really depends what art you want to do. Art classes can be great if you want to learn certain techniques such as how to paint or do still life or draw specific things. But from my personal experience (which certainly should not be used to brand all art classes) I find art classes crush your personal creativity as an individual artist. They can show you very helpful things but it depends. Do you want to learn skills and techniques, or would you like to develop a personal individualized style based around drawing what you enjoy?
The issue with me, is if I don't enjoy it and don't feel inspired by it, I won't draw it. And if I DO I certainly won't have put my heart and soul into it.
I say the same thing to everyone that ever asks me for any kind of advice. Which is- just draw. It sounds stupid. But the MORE you do it, the faster you'll learn. You'll have moments where you realize drawing an extra line somewhere works nice and tiny tweaks will happen over time that will shape your whole style as a whole. Work with photo references, try to learn how the body and anatomy works (art class may be good for this). And heck. If you're not sure about art class, then what's the rush? If your worried you could perhaps explore and develop where you would like to go as an artist first. Find yourself and develop your existing skills, then take a class to improve on the foundations that you've already got. What do you think? ^^

because I love your art, and you seem to know what you're doing... and you actually talk to me.
Oh definitely. I'm not sure if you saw it, but my school's artclass just crushed my convidence. And then squished it. I've gotten a lot better since, but it still hurt.
To be honest, both. The only style of mine I actually like, is the way I draw Maggie. My cats, wolves, dragons and human style just pisses me off. I've actally cried from frustration and just the fact of what my school planted in my head. I don't do that now, but I do get frustrated.
Yup, same with me.
It's not stupid... You should see my first drawing of Maggie, then compare it to now. I never took art classes for drawing... well I did, but they didn't teach drawing :/ and that makes me happeh.
Thank you for taking the time to talk to me! ;u; well I go to see what's in the class this week, so I should wait till then to make a decision. x3
May I ask if you have Skype? I understand if you don't have it/don't want to share it with me. Completely understandable. x3

Good thinking ^^ You sound like a very level-headed person. At the end of the day I can give you advice and tell you what I've found helpful, but we're all different. Heck, I freaking /FAILED/ art class, so uhm...yeah XD
Sure, I don't mind Skyping. Drop me a note with your name I can find you under (It probably won't be until tomorrow that I go on though, as it's nearly 3am and uh...bed needs to happen ;;;;;;; )

Aww thank you :3 I try x3
I failed it too.. I hear a lot of artists tend to do that. My parents/siblings were so pissed off when they ffound out xDD
Okk! and yesh, understandable. It's getting late here too, you get a good sleep!~

Bah, art is impossible to fail at. In fact I actually think it's impossible to grade. It's so personal that it's impossible to label. It's like telling somebody that their thoughts are wrong. Total bull.
I shallll sleep ;;;;;;;;;;;; But it's great talking with you ^^ I should be around later tomorrow on Skype.
