I feel like everyone should appreciate that I could be so much worse
I have both the unstoppable want for a girlfriend, and also negative rizz, I believe I am fucked
I say shit like "If my memory serves me" knowing damn well it serves the dark lord
I was drinking a popping boba, and I couldn't get any more pearls out, so I said, out loud, "you fucker, give me the balls"
I have never felt such intense embarrassment in my life
real!!!!
They need to invent a doing nothing that doesn't make you feel guilty
God bless ao3 authors, I wouldn't be such an interesting specimen without them
I love STEM so much, but by God I cannot hold back my want to create and experience art
Okay, I have some ranting to do. I am a STEM student, I'm going into engineering in the future, but because I'm still in school, I'm exposed to soamy different fields, and some friends of mine convinced me to do theater next year, and it sparked this thought.
I used to do art all the time, and now I feel so disconnected, it's like once you decide you want to go into a STEM field you aren't allowed to be artistic any more which is so fucking stupid. The point of Engineering at least is to be creative and to solve issues, and you cannot fill that if you have no connection to your own creative side through some kind of art.I am being a bit dramatic, but it's so dumb to shun STEM students away from art, we want to create any way we can,and yet are constantly told to channel that into more math and science, instead of being allowed to take a pause and just have fun with our creativity.
Obviously I can't really make a living off of art, but I think if I didn't have to worry about money in the future, I would simply spend all my time doing whatever art sparks interest. But instead I have had to make peace with the fact that if I want to have a stable source of income, and not want to kill myself, I would have to go into STEM and leave my love for art behind.
And that is a truly horrible thing
it's what it says on the tin (I am a minor, pls don't be weird)
