Trip to CalArts- pt. 1

[mizutamari]

In what I have decided was the BEST IDEA my Dad gave me, I decided to attend CalArts' Accepted Students Day on April 10th. I bought my plane tickets and dreaded/feared the day for almost a month. Would the school be what I expected? Would I be accepted by the students? Would I feel inferior? Suddenly, it was April 8th and I had to wait no

This trip looks like fun and as a bonus, that drawing turned out just rad as hell. Looking forward to part 2!

I tell you- I was so nervous in that room, thinking they were going to throw me out or something if I sucked... I am still waiting for my creative side to wake the hell up! I worry that I will be wooden for a while yet once I go to school.
But that room had a lot of creative air about it. I need to tap into that again.

Looks like you had a great start to your new upcoming adventure. =) Can't wait for next installment.

(zomg I can't believe you actually drove by yourself on Californian freeways!!!!!! D8 )

It was quite an adventure. I still can't believe I wasn't snapping pictures like CRAZY the whole time! I was too busy just taking it all in!

And seriously, their freeways are NOT as bad as everyone makes them out to be! They need to be repaved VERY badly, but I can't see how they could EVER close those things down without the whole city coming to a halt!

Ironically, I think LA is really spread out.

You could have seen the Hollywood sign. You can catch a glimpse of it as you go on 5 North.

I seriously want to find like EXTREMELY detailed city maps (to scale) so I can compare them...

I'm not sure I was on the 5. I know I drove the 405, the 105, and 170? or was it 135? Merrr! Anyway, most of the "LA" driving was at night anyway.

I'll have plenty of time to see it later!
