Where have I been?

Wed Apr 8, 2009, 5:55 AM

Mood: Defeated
Listening to: Afterlife - Avenged Sevenfold
Reading: My writings which had been neglected until recent
Watching: The options in my life as they wait for me to act
Playing: Fallout 3
Eating: I'm actually pretty hungry now, haha
Drinking: Green tea

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.

It's a hard spot to be in, man. I don't know which I'd choose, I'm still plugging forward with this Education thing.

I'm glad you're still alive, man. Hope you're still hanging in there.

Thank you for your input my friend, it's much appreciated

I'm doing what I can for now, but hopefully I'll be able to sort out my priorities this summer. Still, any help offered in that area is gladly accepted :-P

Hope everything is going well in your life, if I ever catch you online I'll be sure to make sure to catch up; it has definitely been a long time.

long time.

I usually get spam messages on D.art. However ur article managed to get through, and I would like to say that I relate to your position. Each semester in college has been more and more draining on my mind and i can only come to think that I will go insane upon completion of college. However, my dream and my education are one in the same. It just feels like great distance from where I am now to accomplishing my dream or life goals. Sometimes that distance is very heavy on my mind and it makes me think similarly to how you composed ur entry.

Thanks for your input man, yeah that may be another part of my problem is the anticipation of my future ( after the two years I've already spent at college I still have 6 more... :-d)

Time will tell what our endings well be, hopefully they'll all be good
