i do appreciate commiseration, for real. everyone just seems so sure of themselves. it's starting to FREAKMEOUT. i totally resonate with not knowing whether or not you could handle regular college. i feel like we've been out of "regular" school for so long that it's hard to know if we're even wired that way anymore.
but i'm sure that's a bunch of BS, since we're obviously smart and capable. i think, in the end, it just comes down to what makes us happy. because i know i get caught up in what i think i SHOULD be doing and that messes up my ability to determine what i WANT to be doing. it's all kind of muddled together, so every once in a while it's nice to just step back and remember that there's SO MUCH time to do EVERYTHING you could want. when college ends, or if you transfer or drop out or whatever, there's still so much life beyond schooling that it seems ridiculous to worry about wasting your time.
hopefully i see you soon, gurl. it's been too long.
dude, pre-planning is such a bitch, and i know what you mean about feeling forced into a routine. i feel like leaving florida was sort of a testament to our ability to break free from it though. i mean, granted, we're still in art schools, but at least it's been proven that we can handle large scale changes in environment. that's definitely something of merit. a lot of kids here have dropped out just because they couldn't take the change of scenery.
and yeah, i don't know. i guess attending art school for seven years prior to art college probably drained my creative supply. but whatever, this is the point at which i'm supposed to find a way to channel this frustration into something NEW AND EXCITING. watch out, I'M A STAR ON THE RISE.
but probably not.
i'll probably just go join the peace corps and disappear for a while or something.
thanks for the feedback gurl, can't wait to playyyy this summer.
