hi there- you're probably wondering why all of a sudden i've popped back here.
the honest answer is that i'm utter shit with my memory [working on that].
but the past 5 months have been an ordeal in and of itself. i've dealt with setback, triumph, despair and gratitude, all leading up to the culmination of a nearly 20-year fight.
may 5th marked the day of my graduation from Emily Carr University of Art and Design, with a BFA in Visual Arts. i would've been officially out of school for a full month in about 2 days' time.
so what has this graduate been doing and planning? quite a few things. i've embarked on new projects while searching out job prospects. i've been enjoying the blissful freedom to do absolutely fuck-all with my time while preparing and sending out my application for a post-grad-work permit. i've made new contacts while cherishing my friends, and i've watched others succeed while swallowing my own fears of inadequacy. it's been a very trying few weeks for sure, and i've learned a lot from it. the most important thing i've learned is that i have to kick this forgetful habit of mine in the ass. i'm going to write more, i'm going to produce more work that's meaningful to me. i'm going to continue making my goals realities.
so here's to a lifetime of disappointments and successes, and everything that'll come in between it all. i did say i'd be here for the long haul, right?
