Hahahaha~ I will write one when I'm soon done with my art/design student university life for the semester after next week! Will be sure to post here
But I'm only fearing that less and less people will stay on the thread as time goes, even though I know a lot of us are still here. It's an inevitable worry haha.
My confession? haha Other than the usual stuff I've said a million times over already - I think this semester has been the hardest for me out of the 3 years so far in university - because the reality of needing to be employed have hit me hard so far - because we have to go for our summer internship soon. I don't know whether I wanna be graphic designer - because I don't feel like I'm cut to be one. So I've decided to push myself for a graphic design internship - if I don't succeed, I will try something else and not do graphic design. I applied for a few - in general, I felt very dejected because it's either I didn't get responses or the interviews just didn't go very well - since I'm very new to this anyway. Anywaaaay, with my last application and chance - I actually just managed to get a graphic design internship - and I'm going for it coming summer break!!!!
Ok, tl;dr: There were times during the process, I recalled Pope's story in his persistence of working to become an actor - and it somewhat gave me the strength, and he became the symbolic reminder to myself to not give up. And it was the fact that I got to know him better during this period of my semester, that partially contributed to my sentiments of wanting to give graphic design another try before I venture into anything else, when I looked at him being a such an all-rounded graphic designer and his designs as well. Even if I may not become a professional graphic designer at the end of the day - just like him, I want to conquer it and attain the skills and experience too.
Ok embarrassing cheesy storytime over! Back to my assignments! Lol!
