More ramblings

Okay so~
now that my freshman year is over, I think I should have somewhat of a better grasp on what I want to go to college for, or even if I want to go at all.
At first, as a kind of spur of the moment deal, I decided I wanted to go to an art college. Not for anything in particular, I just wanted to go so I could draw some amazing shit, astound the teachers into giving me a bunch of A's, and be on with my life (because you know I'm that good).
As I have found out, it doesn't exactly work like that. For one thing, in order to astound somebody with your art, you have to like...not suck first and secondly, I don't think that that in itself is a major.
So now I'm stuck between a major in animation or in languages. My gramma begrudgingly suggested that if I really wanted to major in something artsy, I could always get a minor in languages. But I'm started to notice how much of a pain drawing is most of the time. I honestly don't think I want to spend my life doing this with a deadline hanging over me....like death at a retirement home....
My other problem is, as nice as it sounds to other people that I'm in the process of learning so many languages at once, I haven't actually learned any of them...I'm almost conversational in French, I know the little survival phrases for Swedish, German, and Russian and I've been studying Japanese for over three years so you would think I'd have learned something by now

This is making my head hurt.....
I have three more years and trip to Europe to think about it so I really shouldn't be as worried about this as I am >:I

I seriously love this kid ♥
I've been drawing him, Roger, and Ralph a lot lately

Are you enjoying my wonderfully disfigured tree back there?
I'm starting to draw backgrounds, kind of

It's weird

Why am I suddenly drawing the guys from this stupid book we're reading in English so much?

Because I love it ._.
don't tell anybody

The book is Lord of the Flies and in chapter 9
I almost started bawling in the middle of class.
One of the coolest characters in the book got beat to death..

And while I'm shaking violently and on the verge of tears,
the rest of the class isn't even trying to stay awake.
Apparently I'm one of the chosen few in existence that actually likes this book

I'M A NERD, GET OVER IT
