Self-discipline and other intense things

Sep 12, 2009 00:02

Since I'm going to try and be serious about art this semester, I'm going to try and cut back on some things that I spend a lot of time doing. Namely, I'm going to try and watch less anime. I'm going to keep up with the ongoing ones *coughbleachandnarutocough*, but I should not/can not/will not start watching any new series. The same goes for manga. It's a good thing that I don't have to swear off TV since I don't even have a TV in my room. But I still want to try and avoid watching online episodes as much as possible.

Instead, I'll try to draw in sketchbooks more. Almost all of my teachers want sketchbooks filled with daily life drawings and inspirations, so I've got to keep up with that. Plus, all the studio classes expect you to work as many hours in studio as out of studio; each studio class is 6 hours/week, so altogether they expect me to work at least 18 hours/week out of studio for 3 studio classes. I can do it... I think...

Damn, it's really kinda inconvenient that I'm in the middle of Soul Eater now; I'm going to have to pace myself with the rest of it instead of watching as many episodes as possible like I usually do...

Oh yeah, one more self-discipline thing- going to bed early and getting enough sleep. My brain barely functions at an artistic level with the insomniac amounts of sleep that I used to keep at SF State and have been keeping for the first week of classes. This should be easier to enforce...

college, artsy stuff, cca things, anime, self-deprevation
