I had completed my first quarter at SCAD!
I've been home for winter break since just before Thanksgiving so- in six weeks I've been doing everything I can, my own stuff (such as painting 3 30x40 paintings- (2 of them commissions), writing -I have come sooo close but am no where finished my newest story while I'm still waiting for my other to send off and hopefully go somewhere with it!, been taking on Uncharted and Batman Arkham City by awesome force...well about as awesome as I can be! and been hanging with friends and family. It's all good! But now, I have less than a week left and you know its hard to fit in everything you still have to do- so many people to see, so many things to do, so many places to eat that you know you'll crave because their food doesn't even compare with your normal diet. Lol, this is all silly stuff, but I don't wanna go to bed so I miss out on something I still want- no- NEED to do before I leave.
Yeah, I know I'm not gone foreverrrrr, and its only 3 months, I mean, I'm mature enough to be away, just feels lonely to know you're missing out on a bunch of stuff at home, such as things with friends. I DO NOT regret my decision at all, this IS MY DREAM I'm following and I'm going to take it with awesome force
I want so much out of this, I just want to know if I'm going in the right direction, you know? Dealing with surprises and uncertainty is not my strongest suite, but I deal, I cope, I manage, I survive, I move on. Life. Haha, in its bluntest words.
I just been wondering lately, if, being further than perhaps 2 days drive at the most would be better. Yes, its far driving wise and bit of a pain flying-wise, BUT, then I would be forced to survive, to adjust in a different way and get things done and stop worrying about what I'm missing. I guess that's why I always knew I would someday live abroad in one of those Romantic countries. A friend told me on this, that yes, it would maybe do what I want it to, but it would be hard for the people back home...sigh, it really is a no win situation. Can't stay around because there's nothing there for you, but can't go too far, but what if far is where you are truly happy? You go right? Just follow your gut and your heart (and hope there's a job there too - that would be nice. lol. )
Either way...it's not the end of the world in anyway, so what's stopping me.
I'd probably go in a heartbeat- no hesitation, that's how you sometimes have to grab life. You see what you want on the horizon and you run full pelt for it- until your heart gives out.
Food for thought I suppose.
