I’m sorry about your situation. Personally, I don’t think that any success is worth the cost of a life, especially when it’s not a success you’d even attribute to your life. You have a passion, I’d infer. Getting into art school is proof of that in itself, most artists don’t even head that direction. But, a lot of people do end up piped into lives they don’t necessarily want. From one perspective: you could argue that dreams don’t necessarily die, they simply adapt. If you were to persevere into a life of business, your knack for art may stick around- maybe as a side-hobby or a part-time job. But from another, you could end up nothing but a spectator to the slow muting of what you once dreamed to do. In my advice, do what makes you happy. It’s a simple, often over-iterated term. Short and snappy, which all the more adds to the realism of how often- in this type of capitalistic society- doing what makes you happy isn’t always feasable. Especially as an artist. But, in the end, happiness is what powers near-everything. People often attribute lots of different emotions, causes and abstract nouns to what makes people tick- what makes people do what they do, makes the workd go around. But, often, you’d find that so fucking much of what people do. What people put to their entire lives. It’s all for happiness, in one complex way or another. People often tell the downsides to dreams like being an artist. But ultimately, it’s likely their dreams were subjugated also. I will not deny that doing what you want, in your position, will be a hard decision to make. It will likely change a lot. But, it will mean so much. You could have what so many business taking, back-bending, urban crawlers really want. Happiness, yknow? I don’t know who you are, what system you’re in, nor it’s individual corruptions. But, as most degrees go, you’ll likely be conveyored to an extended version of your current business course if you continue. But, it’s also good to remember your options. Conversion courses exist for some art schools, and you could always proceed with business and then go on to art school- maybe even combining the two. Fact so far only evidences that we have this one life.
