YES!! After a portfolio submission and an interview with the coordinator and a teacher I received a letter confirming my acceptation. It won’t be easy, it’s full time on evenings for two years (Video Game Design)… I’m very happy. My mom even told me if I finish my first year there she will pay me a trip to Japan on the summer break!
Here’s hoping I don’t get too much stress from the difficult relationship with my neighbor, I’m praying that the guy leaves in one week anyways.
I need a new computer. Very excited. I might land the job of my dreams or start a little indie company after that! I’m off all street drugs and haven’t really tried doing something while being fully sober and medication compliant, it should all work out, crossing fingers for a positive outcome!
What has helped me is staying away from alcohol and illicit substances, taking my meds and seeing pdoc, spending time with family, taking care of my appearance, and gradually looking for something to do that motivates me. You can do it too. Best of luck to everyone out there!
i really wish you all the best of luck with your course and i really hope you do well and get to go to Japan on the holidays, i’d love to go to Japan
i am waiting for my unconditional offer of a place just to make it more official, i have been told that i have a place but i really need to confirmation email so i can apply for travel expenses so yeah Good luck and i will keep you n my thoughts and just pray that you will pass this
That’s great. Let this be an example to everybody of the good things that can happen to you when you get off of drugs. I never would have gone to school while I was addicted to crack. But after two months clean I got a part-time job and after another month or so I went back to college!
I wish you good luck in and success in all your endeavers. Hopefully that jerk that bothers you will move away.
You know, this is just an example of what taking drugs will do to your surroundings. I had a cute little blonde as a neighbor before him, she never said anything so I played my music whenever I wanted to, smoked pot all day which made the hallway smell and even one night had to take out my broken bed for the trash while one of my druggie pals banged away on his drums. We had taken speed, I wanted to tell him to stop but just thought ‘who cares’. I think that was the last straw for her. She moved out and made sure I’d have a sociopath maniac take her place.
This is how you pay for wrongdoings in life, a heavy price to pay, I’m mad at her for choosing him for the lease but I understand and won’t make the same mistakes again.
Yeah, I understand. It’s almost like you don’t have a right to complain now because you were once a bad neighbor yourself and caused another tenant trouble. But I bet you’ve learned your lesson and won’t do it again.
Plus she had the nerve to tell me in an e-mail, ‘he’s really nice you’ll see’.
I wasn’t so bad, she never seemed annoyed with me and she even invited me for a Barbecue on her terrace once. Maybe he played it smooth with her to get the apartment, not sure why she left, I’d really like to know if it was because of me or some other reason. If I had really bothered her I think she would have let me know or maybe complained to the landlord. I miss her as a neighbor.
Anyways, it wasn’t even close to what I have to endure right now.
Thank you @Meteor, haven’t played them as much as I used to in the past, but I’m fascinated by the art of creating them. It’s gonna be a long two months before I start but really looking forward to it.
Take advantage of all the student discounts you can get on software/hardware/etc! It helps so much.
There are tons of online portfolio sharing communities where you can get feedback from other artists. I did that half way through school and it helped feel like I was in the world and not just a diagnosis. It’s great motivation.
