Haha I don't think you're being a brat, that does seem kind of outrageous that you'd have to donate money on top of volunteering, like, you're paying for the privilege to work for free? It definitely sounds like they're taking advantage of students who they know need the hours. And I'm with you, being social/talkative is a pretty big struggle for me too, so I understand! Do you have friends who could volunteer with you, if that'd make it easier? How many more hours do you need? I hope you manage to get them done somehow!
Aw, thank you!! I love yours, too! Honestly sounds like someone I'd want in my town, I love the deer villagers, and the mushroom theme is super cute
and def impressive for only having had one day, I think it took me a week to decide on my concept alone lol. Have you drawn her, or thought about drawing her? (Side note, but I saw you opened up an art thread a little while ago & you're a really talented artist!)
