College
Thanks to those of you that read the anime review. I like doing that sort of stuff in my free time, contributing to my beloved anime community y'know ;) whenever I come across a cool anime, I'll write about it if it inspires me to do so. Definitely check out Samurai 7, even buy it if you want, I'll tell you that you won't regret it.


Well, I've officially started college. It's nerve-racking, but at the same time really fun.... definitely not like high school. A lot better than high school but they expect a lot of out of you here. So, I pretty much broke my wallet buying art supplies.... I know they call us starving artists but DAMN I'M GONNA REALLY STARVE LOL soooooo much crap, and textbooks on top of that. The good thing is, that I'm hoping I can keep on going through with the art and I got a laptop. Bad thing is I might not have as much time to come online.... no I won't leave, but I might not be updating or visiting sites as often. I'll be engrossed with a lot of campus activities that will hopefully help me with my future, which is to do something in teaching.

Took me a while to figure it out. Art Ed sounds like a really nice job, but I'm prepared for the economic drags and the fact that teachers aren't exactly a booming field to get into, let alone art teachers. But I guess it's something that I really don't mind.... one of the most stable jobs in art, but gives you a lot of liberty. A few years ago if you asked me about teaching kids I'd be like "lol whut. I'm not going anywhere near those brats, especially those unappreciative high schoolers, why would I want to go through all the shit again?" But I started thinking to myself, volunteering in the area that dealt with kids and thought "You know... it isn't so bad.... I might like this". Especially the little ones, they're tough buggers, but they can be so freakin' adorable... and they love art and painting and all that crap. I mean, they LOVE painting, so it wouldn't be too difficult.... save maybe psychotic parents, but other than that, education might be something I'll be doing.... I remembered all the coolest teachers that I had throughout the school days, and remembered how much they do for their students and how fun they were.

I'll definitely not scream and swear and my students and throw fits like one of my teachers did, who will remain unnamed as of present. Nope, definitely not. I'm pretty chill lol like most art teachers. Don't want kids for myself, but I'm pretty cool with teaching them.

If not, I have back-up plans. Good to have one of those.

So... yup... lots of stuff going on, I have much more to do tomorrow so I'm signing off. Possibly for the week. G'night, and hope y'all have a good one!
