Twelve hours from now I will be shaking nervously on the 19 bus. I'll slip between crumbly buildings in the worst part of town before emerging on the other side of Market Street and hopping off at Atelier's front door.

Nervous but hopeful.

It's been pretty crazy. You forget just how under-developed you are until you see a chain of advancement right before you. There are people here who create work like this and I see them routinely bested by the next student down the row.

Meanwhile, I've spent 5 hours on a cast of David's lips and I barely have an outline. Yeeeesh.

Oh wait... so they're giving you a trial period? If I understand correctly... that's friggin awesome! I thought you were waiting to find out if you got in and I was waiting to find out how this interview I thought you were having was going.

I never forget how underdeveloped I am :P Which is probably why I stay away from conceptart. I already beat myself up enough as an artist, but I will never be as good as some people because with cooking/cleaning/eating/friends/boyfriend/reading/meditation/excercise/actual job, I have max 2 hours a day to work on art, and I usually only do it 2 times a week.

I was in the unique condition, thanks to Rupa, of being able to drop my entire life to work on it. I did freelance work nearly full time and concept work every second of my spare time. Once I had enough of a savings to live off of, I dropped freelance to part time and concept to full time plus.

I'm definitely not good enough to be at this school. You saw the artwork these people are generating. I'm just hoping if I work my ass off I can eventually become good enough.
