(no subject)
I was told that getting drunk would help me get work done. So far, I've *started* at least eight projects and haven't finished any of them. I did manage to update my myspace profile with something I'll almost definitely erase tomorrow but I don't think that counts.
I realized I really love doing art and unlike most people in art school, I'm actually not bad at it. Maybe after I get my degree I'll just become a waitress and draw on my breaks. I don't expect to become famous or make any money, but I'm pretty sure that as long as I can afford art supplies, no matter what I'm doing for a career, I probably won't hate my life.
I don't usually allow myself to do art because I'm afraid I'll be too tempted to try and make a "career" of it (and fail pathetically) but maybe I should do it more just you know, "on the side", like, instead of updating my myspace. I do kind of love it, and it does give me a nice ego boost when I get a a compliment on something I've done. Maybe it doesn't do anything good for the world, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't destroy it ...well, except for a few trees and the chemical biproducts let out in the rivers and the several hundred villagers that have to suffer and all that time I'll have wasted that could have been spent actively *improving* the world.
