I'm finally getting out some of my serious (written) work on to Deviant Art beginning with my newest addition to the gallery labeled "Lights."

I don't want to say that the other work I have posted on here is crap, but in all honesty that's how I feel about it =/ My hope is to actually get some of the things out on to DA that I have some confidence in that I did my absolute best on (which I feel in the past I had never accomplished.)

Hope you like the new addition, there should be many more to come in the future!

Well, after 3 semesters at college I feel like I have lost myself to the stresses that come with trying to achieve an education. "But why post that in a journal on DA?" some might ask. Well, mostly because it has affected my artwork, my writing, and everything else that I love doing.

I thought I had these issues long resolved a while back, but I suppose they've always been there in the back of my mind and I'm finding myself now somewhere I don't want to be. I pose this question to those of you who may or may not be reading this (I haven't kept in contact with anyone, which has come to my attention as a fatal flaw in my personality); Which is more important to you all, your dreams or an education? I understand that for many they are one in the same but if you absolutely had to choose, which would it be?
P.S.
For those of you who have checked up on my page any time recently I just want to say thanks for remembering me, it means a lot to know that there are still people who know my name and that I haven't been completely forgotten.
