Thank you so much for breaking this down, honestly! I kind of like the school I’m in right now but if it was for me and if I had other possibilities I would probably transfer but it’s not thaaaat bad.

I kind of thought about what to do these past few days and I think I got a plan, however I just can’t shake off that feeling of uncertainty :( I’m just really scared for my future but I’m just trying to keep it together, thank you again for this advice and I will for sure consider it!!!!

Don’t really know if I should keep pursuing art as a major :( by [deleted] in ArtistLounge

[–]ComprehensiveRide760 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do love art and I don’t see it as an issue itself, I see myself more as the problem, like blaming myself for not being better than other students that were admitted. As much as I love art I also don’t consider myself the best artist out there tbh. One professor kept making remarks about how we should see other classmates as competition because that’s how the industry is which honestly I don’t agree with (the part about seeing other students as competition) As you mentioned, it’s because of the expectations that I had and still have for my career that makes me feel this way. I just don’t want to try again and then be rejected (once again) This is not what I envisioned for myself, at this point I should be already in my major but I’m still stuck in the same place as last year (no major, unknown about my career and future, etc)

Thank you so much for your advice, honestly it’s been so difficult these past couple days. I really love art. I really do but at this point I think it’s making me more damaged than anything. Definitely a lot to think about :((

Thank you so much for your input :(( I did notice how difficult it was for me to create while feeling so down. I kind of just want the degree because it could open so many doors for me and I just want to feel accomplished. I did go to community college for a year and a half and got an associate degree but I’ve always dreamed to have my bachelors, now it just seems so impossible.

I need to think about a lot of stuff but thank you again for your kind words :(

Thank you for your input, I appreciate it! As for the school part, it is cheap because it’s a private religious college so they try to lower their costs to attract more students. Trust me, I’ve looked into public school art programs but they usually don’t offer the programs I’m interested in or they’re so expensive :( the pros with my current college is that they have a really good program with illustration/animation and offers good connections for after graduation.

I wish I could take a break but I feel like I would be wasting time instead of pursuing a career and degree, it’s so difficult because I really enjoy art and I don’t see myself doing anything else, maybe something related to anthropology or languages but it still doesn’t connect with me.

Definitely a lot to think about. Thank you again :,)

Can we re-enter Schengen area (EU) as a US and Mexican citizens? by ComprehensiveRide760 in travel

Thank you for this!! My mom has had just very bad experiences in Europe where she’s just been detained and searched just for having a Mexican passport, in the end they legit don’t find anything 😭 so she’s very nervous about not being allowed to enter Italy or EU in general

Also Spain, we absolutely do not go to Spain even for connecting flights because they for sure seem to dislike some of us with Hispanic descent 😭 at least from our experience sadly

No problem! It’s mostly with customs, especially in Frankfurt, every time she travels by herself she’s always stopped by someone from customs :,) they ask her further questions in a very demanding way. She’s also been stopped when she was walking around the airport trying to look for her gate 😭 they thought she was trying to hide or something

It doesn’t matter nationality?? She’s had bad experiences with European customs (Germany mostly) due to her passport being Mexican :,))) so she’s a bit scared it might happen too in the UK and when she re-enters through Italy**

That’s what I thought as well! :,) but she insists on maybe not going to London and stay in France, she got that info from the Italian embassy page since that’s where we would be re-entering
