"Hey!  Teacher!  Leave them kids alone!  All in all, you're just another brick in the wall...  Wrong!  Do it again!" -Another Brick by Pink Floyd

Now school's back in and so I keep getting that song stuck in my head when talking with people about bad teachers.  I've been lucky in that none of my professors have been full-on awful, so that's one thing to be grateful for.  

Anywho.

I'm semi-back after my hiatus from dA!  No, I'm not dead!  But while the absence wasn't triggered solely by dA, it gave me time to reflect, and I realized I don't do well placing myself on a pedestal.  Too much pressure.  Structure and I don't agree (which is probably why I could never go into the military).  This [dA] should be what I want it to be for me, which is a drawing board of sorts -- an escape from the real world wherein I have free reign without worrying about pleasing people.  Granted, I still want to please people because it's in my nature, but this is the Internet!  People who will be pleased by what I have to offer will come, or not come, as they wish.  I'm just gonna do my own thing and see what happens.  Also, trying to please people is restricting.  I would do what people want of me, not what will allow me to develop my skills or build my kingdom in the clouds.  I wouldn't earn as much criticism and therefor wouldn't be able to grow from it.  Does that make sense?  I dunno if it does to others, but that's how I see it.  So this is a warning that I'm going to do whatever the hell I want and that will probably be a bunch of unfinished projects.  If I lose followers and potential followers because of that then oh well.  Thank you for your attention, I really do appreciate it.  It's just time for me to let my scattered mind to rule a place of its own.

I'm gonna go back to ignoring my homework now.  It might be a bit before I post anything, but short bits of literature and concepts will eventually make it up at some point.  Probably after I catch up on all the art I missed.

TTFN!
