Long artsy day! No Regrets, right?

I've been up since 6 am, had business class from 9 to 12. The art class from 12:15 to 4:20. Then I got stuck in Los Angeles traffic and made it home at 6 pm!

 

Apparently listening to opera while painting motivates you. That theory was tested today and guess what? It works! I painted for 4 hours straight and I did damn well!!! Last week I painted like a toddler, this week I'm progressed - painting more like a 4th grader! Progression!

 

 

God knows I'm not the patient, artistic type, but this was rigorous and rewarding.

 

 

Oh yea, I have a fever of 102 degrees. Typing while I'm feverish and delirious. Gotta finish homework, I think I chewed off more than I can swallow this semester. I'm taking 5 classes, meaning:

1. more homework

2. more time in college

3. spending more time with my annoying brother

4. being stuck in traffic.

5. no free time

 

Benefits:

 

1. I'll get out off community college faster.

 

Four years ago, I got accepted at Otis College of Art and Design. They accepted me for my writing but I couldn't afford it. So that opportunity passed, no regrets there. I like writing but not as a career. I like stability and being a writer doesn't offer stability financially or er...mentally.   

 

Almost six years ago my last semester of high school I applied to random universities and got into University of Berkley and got an interview offer from Ivy League Dartmouth. Missed out on those opportunities due to two reasons: finance and my parents fear of me living away from them.

 

Then I couldn't decide what to do with my life, I thought I wanted to be a psychologist, writer, lawyer, detective or an anthropologist. In the meantime, I took online certification courses - I'm certified freelance writer, worked as that for sometime.

 

Now here I am, six years later going to my second semester of community college trying to finish as fast as I can.
