Sorry but I'm going to have to rant now.
You wanna know whats about to give me a stroke? Getting a fuckin' job after Art school. Its a competitive field, extremely competitive, but that was before everyone decided they would do it. When I looked into animation and all that I thought it was a gift from heaven. The things I love, art, computers, and a little money all in one.
Then when I tell people they are all like me too! or Hey my cousin/brother/buddy is too!

If I was confident I was really good I wouldn't worry so much, but despite everyone always telling me how gifted I am I know I suck when compaired to the ones out there doing it for a living. I had an amazing spurt form ninth to 11th grade, where I went from ass to pretty good, making improvements in leaps and bounds. Now I'm drawing the same shit over and over, Its like I hit a brick wall. I enjoy my drawings until I look at it from a professional POV. I know I'm supposed to make art for myself, but its everyone else's opinion which'll matter and seeing it in my notebook where you expect shitty doodles and on a poster which you expect perfection are two different things.
This is without the fact I'm freaking poor so going to a Intitute means a student loan, which means I have to be successful. Someone shoot me.
