i made a big move today. i decided to drop photography, and not do a bfa in photo anymore. i just fell out of grace and interest with it, and ive moved on to other materials as an artist. i feel good about being freed from something i wasnt enjoying, but at the same time, im a bit scared because now im kind of thrust back into the "unsure" zone which is something i HATE. no offense, but i hate hearing people say they dont know what they want blah blah blah. i know its hypocritical, but i wish other people (myself too, i guess) would just make a DAMN DECISION lol. i mean, i do plan on applying for a bfa in sculpture. odd place from where i was a couple of years ago...
in other news, ive been hanging out with kyle a lot more. i stopped hanging out with other andrew because he got kind of weird, and i feel like my social life narrowed down now that everybody is living all over the place. in some ways, i prefer that, and in others, i resent it because it makes my social life more difficult to maintain. at least it happened naturally and not through some kind of terrible cataclysm (althought i think that has yet to be determined).
my parents are saying now i might not be able to go to prague =[
this whole banking crisis, aka the worst since the 30's..., might hold us back. i kind of have to agree in some ways. since there isnt exactly a good economic future in stake for me for hte next few years, it probably wouldnt be a good idea to squander money on something thats not too practical. on the other hand, its also not a good idea to travel to another continent amidst a political crisis with russia, a failing global market, among other problems. i know most people wouldnt let that sway their decision, but the fast few weeks have been exceptionally "real" in terms of how serious they are. i guess its a wait-and-see scenario at this point.
