Apprenticeship

I was talking to my sister today and I don't even remember how we got on to this subject, but we were talking about it and she also suggested that I find myself an apprenticeship in New York since I am still into fashion. To tell the truth I was about to give up on it, since some people were not supportive of me in the past. So sis told me that I should come up with a plan to go to NY, find grants and loans that will also pay my way through Grad school. On top of that I do not have many credit card bills.
I can't believe that I was going to give up on my main dream, which is fashion. The line comes up once again, it is not what you know but also who you know. I would like to get out of this country MD shell because Maryland really only has politics to offer. It is New York and Miami is where I want to go. Even if it is just once a month. Simone Lengo made his break through LeSportsac, why can't I? He just sent his stuff to them. So I will consult my other people who want to see me go far so that I can devise a plan of action.

I am at Giant Supermarket

Last week when I was going into the office I wanted to get a muffin. Preferably Cinnamon Chip. I was at Giant and I see this nice display of Cd's by Marcus Johnson. I was walking fast and that is when I saw it by the checkout lanes. It was my design and I was really excited and I wanted to jump around and be like "I did that! I designed that!" However, that would make me look kinda loopy. When I got home I told everybody I knew.

Well, here it is. All over Maryland, I am so excited. My next project is wine labels! 

The Road to the Intern

I was thinking that since I am on the road to being an intern, I feel that I should step up my website. However I cannot decide right now if I want to pay for a GoDaddy or pay Deviantart. With Dev it will remove all ads and the site already built for me. Deviant Art is $30 a year. I feel that I should do this because with my professional work on my internship I should put that on my portfolio as a Corporate works, you know?

I is official!

It is officially official I a graduating. I had a very trivial time getting into my last class but I thank God and feel very gracious that I made it in. Thank you Thank you!

The Graduate Journey Begins...

So for time I have been searching for a graduate school to attend. At first I was going to continue my education in a more in depth art related field at an art school online. I found an institution at San Francisco that did Fashion online. However it is a certificate of completion. Not what I am looking for. So then I looked into the Art Institutes but that was out of the question because it was not what I wanted.My mother spoke to me and said I should take up a masters in something that will make me more marketable, especially what is going to get me a more stable job.
 Then I found SCAD. This was perfect for me, it had online access, Q&A chat rooms, and more. I was so excited about this, I finally can attend an art college without leaving the state and having to pay for room and board. Then I looked at the requirements. Let's say my SAT score was not in the top 1000 point range. So to supplement for that I needed to take the GRE. That is an expensive test looking at about $130 plus, and I have to get a certain score. I couldn't even find a price fro the tuition.... So long SCAD. Trust me it is a great place but too expensive.
I Google-ed some more and found another place in Southern California. So I asked for more information and checked out the prices and what kind of services they offer. One day they call my house and sadly I am not home. However, my mother talks to one of the counselors and they had a nice conversation. So I am like "oh my what did my mother say?" I am still talking to the kind lady at USC (I do not want to use any names at this point in time) and I am filling out the application. This is great! Right? I feel good about this she is checkin in on me and I asked all the crazy questions I could think of. Come to find out, where I live I am in the middle of everything. I feel so good right now.

Cheers For Positive Thinking

As the school year advances so do I. I continue to challenge myself as an individual and as an artist. I desire to be successful and I will be. I will face obstacles in life but those are the things at make me stronger. I will not listen to my sorry excuses for not being able to do my stuff, because thinking negatively will bring negative rewards. So I think positively.

Past Catch Up's

So not to make people think that I do nothing over the summer I actually do stuff. Every year I particpate at this anime and videogame convention called Otakon. A group of people including myself do Con Coverage. We take the photos the video and then publish a highlight reel. The great thing about Otakon is that people dress up in costumes as their favorate characters based on video games, movies, whatever. This goes on for three days and on Friday and Saturday their is a rave! That is mostly the only time I go clubbing. Its fun!

Stella from Daft Punk and Leiji Matsumoto's Interstella 5555

It is not just anime it is everything. Sometimes people come up with their own thing.
