It's important to take your position seriously, Raikov! I'm... rather envious of that kind of attitude. I'm rather no-nonsense man myself, but I tend to become more flexible as time goes on. I suppose it must be my parental instincts - I have two children of my own, actually. My wife always told me I was no good with long-term discipline...
(However, any new students that read this will be disappointed to know I have zero tolerance for certain behavior in my class. I rarely extend due dates unless I find it necessary. While this may be harsh, I find it creates a better classroom learning environment. I don't usually kick students out, but I do report upsetting behavior. I try to be as fair as possible.)
I've had prior experience myself, but it was under some rather... interesting circumstances. I can't say they mirror yours, but I don't find that matters in my example.
So, Raikov, have you worked in the art career before? I'm not exactly an artist myself, but I do enjoy drawing.
Ah, I see then! That reminds me of how my parents felt about my interest in space and biology. My father wanted me to get a stable job as a business man, but I always had a fascination with science and the world beyond ours. I was actually a space captain before I moved here. Of course, I mostly shipped freights and received mediocre pay, but it was a very important job to me. Fortunately, I also love biology and nature!
It was. Fortunately, a friend of mine recovered my spaceship, the S.S. Dolphin. When I have time, I still travel in space. I could never give up that life! Ever since I was a child, I dreamed of being a intergalactic space captain. You could say I was quite the dreamer, but also diligent.
I suppose now I have the best of both worlds, then.

And no, this is the first time. When I was younger, I had wanted to start an art career but my parents insisted I enroll in the army.

Still, that must have been interesting to be in space.
