Words of Wisdom

Edit: Got a better scan and now the colors are more uniform c:

Another grad gift done in one go. Took about... 10 or so hours. Again, I haven't slept yet and the color's slightly off due to the color correction going 'bwaaa' due to having to be scanned in sections.

This is an inside joke so I suppose I'll explain. The friend this is for ranked 2nd in my class, so for graduation she had to write a speech. During one of the practices I read her speech. And lul'd. She had something about 'little birds of inspiration.' So, like the ~awesome~ friend that I am, I made fun of her, lawl. Told her that her little bird of inspiration would probably be a parrot and it would go; BRAWK, INSPIRATION! So yeaah, it's kind of been a joke ever since.

And what? You say half these birds aren't even on the same continent, sir or madam? Well, I say suck it.
