It's terribly sad that somethin...Lissiedoodle,<br /><br />It's terribly sad that something as simple as changing a major or career can change people's opinion of you, but it's true isn't it?<br /><br />I have noticed that people(mostly at work, who don't know me super well) now think of me as a sciency nerd since I am an animal science major in school... and no one ever assumed I was very smart before when I mentioned I was an art/film major.<br /><br />I haven't encountered a lack of people telling me I am creative or artsy since I haven't stopped doing art and film entirely yet(and I still will be doing art, just more for myself than for a profit or for other people), and I always have photos or art going on in some form... I do get a sort of joy out of people recognizing an artsiness to me, I get a sense of pride in it... and I can't say that I don't try and show it to people if I think they are seeing only one side of me. I think it hasn't been that clean of a cut for me since I am not entirely giving up art, just mainstream film. The funny thing is, I never really considered myself very artistic until the end of high school... since before I took AP drawing, I never thought I could draw(it all looked like my telestrations... which doesn't really show much now does it,lolol). Isn't it strange how we also tend to place ourselves in boxes and label ourselves?Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02046658450667682966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4674969102479112735.post-68149119568555844982010-03-29T21:01:33.050-07:002010-03-29T21:01:33.050-07:00That's amazing---- I was just driving home aft...That's amazing---- I was just driving home after work today with my top open (it's as close to a converts as I can get! lol), singing to music, and I was just smiling like crazy too!!!! It's amazing how nice of a drive Moorpark Rd. is, it's so much better than the freeway, it makes me feel like I am in another city, or another state! Just spending the morning with you made my whole day so much better. And trust me, we'll find those frogs!!!GuavaFoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12297337840726370729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4674969102479112735.post-50575017027569103422010-03-29T19:45:39.832-07:002010-03-29T19:45:39.832-07:00Still never fails to surprise me how simultaneousl...Still never fails to surprise me how simultaneously alike and different we are, Ness. It seems like we felt a lot of the same things working in our respective film biz areas. I really felt like I was living The Dream and seeing and doing really exciting things, but at the same time I just knew it wasn't for me. I didn't feel like the joy of getting to make movies was enough to keep me there, because something was missing. I guess it wasn't MY dream to make movies-- it was just to love them. <br /><br />I've been encountering something lately that kind of befuddles me. When I was a film major and I was working at the studio, it didn't matter what I did, and people thought that I was oohhhh creative and eccentric and blah blah blah. Now that I'm on my way to becoming a teacher, no one seems think of me that way. I still do the exact same things and I'm still the same person, but because I no longer have the romantic titles of "film student" and "production assistant", people think I'm not that way anymore. Have you encountered that yet? --AlissaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
