    Try video games.
    I'm applying to college with a 500 word essay about gaming. >>

    You kidding? I can barely walk in normal shoes without tripping over air. xD
    Heels destroy your feet anyway, I have no idea why anyone would want to wear them anyway.

    As far as Disney sequels go, it's probably one of the best.
    For example...it could be more like Mulan II. Or any of the Cinderella and Little Mermaid sequels. >>

    Watching Zoolander right now.
    I love this movie, lol, especially all the famous cameos in it. xD

    Well...right now I'm considering majoring in game design and minoring in Japanese, but if I get a job in game design I'd definitely show you guys what I'm allowed to. xD
    Hm...ideally, concept artist or character design, but I'm not bad in 3D design. Granted I'm no expert, but I've had some experience with it.
    A lot of that tends to happen outside of school, but academically I tend to be extremely lazy. I almost failed last year because I barely did any homework. >>

    Just consider the job market when you'd be out of college, the thing about game design is that gaming is a luxury, and if the global market takes a massive dive people won't want to spend money on games. So yeah. >>

    And my school sucks lol. I pretty much endured three years of hell in order to get my schedule the way it is now, and one of the reasons I'm probably allowed to do video games for my project is because the administration knows I'm really lazy. xD

    I was actually really unsure what to do until I went to a pre-college program this past summer, it really helped a lot in terms of getting a taste of what college courses are like. xD

    It's a tough field, it's pretty competitive, but eh, all art related fields are. xD
    You might want to look into animation then, it has a few more job opportunities since you can be an animator in games or movies/TV. I will tell you now though, it is extremely frustrating and time consuming to animate things. My final project for the summer took three days to animate and the final video was nine seconds long. xD
    Because the family **** is still going on. It's kind of causing me to like being at school more than home. >>

    And it still kind of does.
    But some really awesome things have happened in the past few days to make it suck less. I finished writing my college essays, and as soon as I get those reviewed by my college counselor I'm applying early decision to my first choice college (for game design). I think I have a fairly good shot at getting into the major too, so I actually think I can get into college now, as opposed to when I thought I would be living in a box.
    I'm taking a class called Capstone this year, which is basically a year-long research project on a chosen subject. I'm doing my project on the history of art in video games, starting with the 1980s (though touching on the "first video game" debate slightly from the 50s) and going all the way up to modern era, probably ending with the 3DS. In addition to the 50+ page research paper I'll be writing, I'm also making my own character that will progress through the different graphics eras (8-bit to 3D character model) and possibly an outline for a game if I have time. So not only do I get to play video games and list them as sources, I also get to use what I learned in the game design class I took over the summer, and I've started the art portion this week.
    And to top it all off, I won the election for my school's division of the National Art Honor Society this morning.
    Given that it's only Wednesday I'm reaaally hoping nothing happens to **** this week up. >>

    There's one part of Okami where in order to get a Stray Bead, you need to draw a star on this kimono canvas.
    Unless you get it absolutely perfect, it's like "lolno, try again", this literally took me an hour to finally get. Thank god you only need to do it once. >>

    And then of course there's The Legend of Zelda, which pretty much is an entire game's worth of gamer rage.

    Holo, season two appearance. c:
    Yeah, I have it, I have to get that and the other pictures off my camera though. xD
    And the first Re:Coded recording we did, where all of us were like "HOLY F*CK WHAT'S HAPPENING".
    In hindsight there probably should have been a video of me plotting to steal the Okamiden display case and John d'awwing over the game, but eh. xD

    We found a KH person to take pictures with. It was very necessary.

    Because we couldn't figure out how to play it

    Yeah, even though I was way more excited for Okamiden, it was cool getting to demo Re:Coded.
    Also nice that it's being released in the US in a pretty short amount of time, compared to previous titles.
