In other news, I feel like I'm finally beginning to bloom into an adult with responsibilities and a touch of reality. So I should take it as a step of growth to not run away in morbid embarrassment at my past...
Anyway, lately I've been finding it real hard to kick this freaking habit called the internet, namely kbob (i know, i know, 3 years and still going, i'm doomed). In fact I just caved in by browsing for videos the past 3 hrs (ugh). I'm gonna try this intermittent alarm method - work for a period, earn a small reward. <whispers>pomodoro</whispers>
>>> 9 Warning Signs of An amateur Artist
This is some pretty hard-hitting stuff, it really presents the reality of how difficult this path can be. I don't entirely agree with #3 as it only applies to artists who have reached a relatively mature point in their careers to continue exploring various facets of the same plane. Anyway, what's important for me right now is not only to start, but also finish.

( changes and doubts )
You are lucky to be good at something and love it so much. Many people in this world never find that within themselves their entire life. If you give up on that because of any objective idea of what you should be doing, I would think that very tragic! Do what fulfills you.
